Glaubenskultur Und Lebenskunst: Interdisziplinare Herausforderungen Zeitgenossischer Theologie : Interdisziplinäre Herausforderungen zeitgenössischer Theologie

Glaubenskultur und Lebenskunst" (culture of faith and the art of living) and addresses many issues crucial to contemporary theology. Focusing on the life-promoting aspects of traditions, contents and forms of religious practice of Christianity, it highlights anthropological premises and perspectives, which also affect the conception of religious services, the interpretation of biblical scriptures or the understanding of human freedom.Christian Theology should make the category of "a life of faith" plausible in such a way that people are not forced to choose between enjoying being human or being religious, but experience to appear as human beings through faith. Given the many burdens that Christian culture of faith is charged with - ranging from naïve fundamentalism to a self-destructive religious practice - it is the task of theology - in dialogue with other humanities and life sciences - to make a "life of faith" credible as an ethically reasonable category of human existence that corresponds to human dignity and strengthens human freedom.
