David Wells

    David F. Wells is een vooraanstaand senior onderzoeksprofessor aan het Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Zijn werk duikt in de aard van het christelijk geloof binnen de hedendaagse, gemoderniseerde wereld, een onderwerp dat hij heeft onderzocht in talrijke artikelen en boeken, waarvan sommige zijn geïnitieerd door aanzienlijke subsidies. Wells biedt diepgaande inzichten in het moderne christendom, gegrondvest op zijn uitgebreide onderzoek en theologische geleerdheid. Zijn betrokkenheid bij wereldwijde evangelisatie-inspanningen en zijn bediening in Afrika benadrukken verder zijn diepe toewijding aan het begrijpen en articuleren van geloof in het complexe hedendaagse landschap.

      Past, Present and Future
    • "This book is a jeremiad against "new" versions of evangelicalism - marketers and emergents - and a summons to return to the historic faith, defined by the Reformation solas (grace, faith, and Scripture alone) and by a high regard for doctrine." "Wells argues that historic, classical evangelicalism is marked by doctrinal seriousness, as opposed to the new movements of the marketing church and the emergent church. He energetically confronts the marketing communities and their tendency to try to win parishioners as consumers rather than worshipers, advertising the most palatable environment rather than trusting the truth to be attractive. He takes particular issue with the most popular evangelical movement in recent years - the emergent church. Emergents, he says, are postmodern and postconservative and postfoundational, embracing a less absolute understanding of the authority of Scripture than traditionally held." "The Courage to Be Protestant is a forceful argument for the courage to be faithful to what Christianity in its biblical forms has always stood for, thereby securing hope for the church's future."--BOOK JACKET.

      With postmodernity now laden with its own cynicism, David Wells believes that no time before has been more opportune for the Christian faith to speak to a culture whose moral fabric is torn, in which sin has disappeared as a concept, and in which a secular salvation is offered on every side.

    • In God in the Whirlwind, Wells explores the depths of the paradox that God is both holy and loving, showing how his holy-love provides the foundation for our understanding of the cross, sanctification, the nature of worship, and our life of service in the world. --from publisher description

      God in the Whirlwind
    • It is worse, much worse, than you think. If your anxiety about global warming is dominated by fears of sea-level rise, you are barely scratching the surface of what terrors are possible. In California, wildfires now rage year-round, destroying thousands of homes. Across the US, "500-year" storms pummel communities month after month, and floods displace tens of millions annually. This is only a preview of the changes to come. And they are coming fast. Without a revolution in how billions of humans conduct their lives, parts of the Earth could become close to uninhabitable, and other parts horrifically inhospitable, as soon as the end of this century. In his travelogue of our near future, David Wallace-Wells brings into stark relief the climate troubles that await-food shortages, refugee emergencies, and other crises that will reshape the globe. But the world will be remade by warming in more profound ways as well, transforming our politics, our culture, our relationship to technology, and our sense of history. It will be all-encompassing, shaping and distorting nearly every aspect of human life as it is lived today. Like An Inconvenient Truth and Silent Spring before it, The Uninhabitable Earth is both a meditation on the devastation we have brought upon ourselves and an impassioned call to action. For just as the world was brought to the brink of catastrophe within the span of a lifetime, the responsibility to avoid it now belongs to a single generation
