This series is designed to help the lay Christian confidently proclaim and defend the faith. Too many Christians know "what" they believe, but not necessarily "why" they believe it.

Hagars Leben ist auf den ersten Blick nicht sehr erbaulich. Die Erzählung aus Genesis 16 ist vielmehr eine Geschichte vom Bodensatz des Lebens. Ausgegraben aus dem Schlick und Schlamm menschlicher Erfahrung. Es geht um Flucht und Patriarchat, um sexuelle Ausbeutung und toxische Beziehung, um Sehnsucht und Trauma, Verzweiflung und Egoismus, um Macht und Gewalt, Unrecht und Neid. Und um eine unbändige Sehnsucht nach Freiheit. Sebastian Rink legt die Erzählung von Hagar neu aus.

Walter Brueggemann points us toward energizing hope for an alternative life of social equity and thriving. In Brueggemann's work, hope is not understood as easy optimism but as an honest facing of the unjust structures that human beings have created and a call to lean into the deep symbols of Scripture that imagine the alternative way of God, restoring solidarity and relationship that have been eroded by the violence of empire.

What is consciousness? Is the mind a machine? What makes us persons? How can we find the path to human maturity? These are among the fundamental questions that Rowan Williams helps us to think about in this deeply engaging exploration of what it means to be human.
