Item Clinical pastoral education in the Northeast, 1925-2000(2001) Jernigan, Homer L.Why should there be a separate history of CPE in the Northeast when there are already well-documented histories of the CPE movement that Include much about the beginnings in New England? The most important answer to that question is that there are distinctive aspects of the development of CPE in the Northeast that are in danger of being lost. Another answer is that histories of the national movement cannot give adequate attention to supervisors, centers, and theological schools that have been and continue to be important in the Northeast. A third answer suggests that a review of the history of the region may be an important contribution to the ongoing dialogue and joint ventures taking place between the Eastern and Northeastern regions. A fourth answer suggests that a review of the history of CPE in the Northeast may raise some important questions about the present and future of the clinical pastoral education movement. The history of the Northeast Region needs to be understood in context~in the historical context In which it began and in the context of the CPE movement. Thus, this history is written as a “contextual history.”Item Betrayed by accent: theological notes on a racist worldsound(Springer, 2022-05-10) Maia, Filipe; Sherma, R.D.; Bilimoria, P.This volume brings sustainability studies into creative and constructive conversation with actions, practices, and worldviews from religion and theology supportive of the vision and work of the UN SDGs.Item Review of Historical Implications of Jewish Surnames in the Old Kingdom of Romania by Alexander Avram(University of Pittsburgh, 2022-06-03) Simonson, BrandonReview of Historical Implications of Jewish Surnames in the Old Kingdom of Romania.

I view the problem as also a homiletical-theological one: Christians narrating the two-part canon unidirectionally, e.g., promise/fulfillment. I propose a revised narration, “exile and return,” influenced by Cathy Caruth’s work on trauma, narrative, and history. I then concretize the complexity of trauma and history in the two-part canon itself through David Carr’s Holy Resilience. As for the other part of Stark’s binary, I propose revising our homiletical Christologies to emphasize Jesus’ Jewishness in differentiated relation to us, following J. Kameron Carter’s Race: A Theological Account. My revisions loosen Stark’s binary by relating Christology across differences of identity today within a trauma-informed hermeneutic. I conclude by proposing a homiletical model that (1) embraces a trauma-informed “not yet” in Christian proclamation of the Hebrew Bible, (2) re-focuses preaching “in Christ” as an identity-related homiletical point-of-view, and (3) acknowledges how struggles with trauma and point of view can foreground relations with inter-religious others today.Item Ephobounto gar: fear, wisdom, and the homiletical-theological task of speaking gospel in crisis situations(Cascade, 2021-11-09) Jacobsen, David Schnasa; Aaron, C.; Clark-Soles, J.Item Un-mastering homiletics interculturally: gospel, belonging, and communion for in-class sermon feedback(The Academy of Homiletics, 2021-12-01) Jacobsen, David SchnasaFacework offers more than a useful intercultural theory for enhancing the homiletics classroom by attending to individual face needs like belonging, competency, and autonomy in threatening moments like in-class sermon feedback. Facework in my class also provided a framework in sections for mentoring preaching students as homiletical theologians in their own right, as evidenced by a description of classroom practices as well as student responses to an anonymous survey in 2020. Furthermore, when illuminated by Willie Jennings's groundbreaking work on theological education in After Whiteness: An Education in Belonging, such attending to face needs and mentoring might begin to deepen homiletical education in our interculturally challenged environment of white supremacy.Item Prophetic preaching in a pastoral mode: communities of solidarity and the white mainline church(Wipf and Stock Publishers, 2018-06-25) Jacobsen, David Schnasa; Sheppard, P.; Ottoni-Wilhelm, D.; Allen, R.The twenty-seven essays and sermons in this book offer a different perspective by viewing prophetic preaching specifically--and ministry, practical theology, and theological education more broadly--as pastoral care for the community in ...Item Alyce M.
