Global Future 2006, Number 3

Governance is now widely accepted as a critical factor for poverty eradication. This Global Future asks: How can the international community address the 'governance gap'?

The Politics of Gentleness: Random Thoughts for a Conversation with Jean Vanier

Sept. 2006
Gentleness is usually the last thing most of us would associate with the rough and tumble world of politics. Politics, we assume, is about conflict and/or getting your interests satisfied. Gentleness is a characteristic of personal relationships having little to do with questions of power or rule. That is, of course, exactly the dichotomy I want to challenge by calling attention to the role of gentleness in L'Arche.

Faith and Nation: Report of a Commission of Inquiry to the UK Evangelical Alliance

2000
“From the very outset”, says Archbishop William Temple, “Christian faith has intimately affected social as well as personal conduct, and the main Christian tradition carries with it a massive body of social teaching”. This report is an attempt to recover and restate this perennial intimacy as it seeks to bring a Christian understanding and an evangelical commitment to tackling some of the social, cultural and political challenges of contemporary society. It also provides an opportunity and some tools (what follows is by no means exhaustive) to reengage the Church and Christian leaders in the big conversation about active citizenship and social responsibility as central to the mandate to be “salt and light” and stewards of God’s creation.

Revista Imagina, Idea 5, 2004

2004
Revista de la Alianza Evangélica Española. La idea central de IMAGINA es mover la iglesia de adentro hacia afuera para poner el mundo patas arriba. ¿Por qué las iglesias evangélicas en España han tenido un impacto tan pequeño en nuestro país? ¿Por qué después de muchos años de libertad seguimos siendo una minoría casi desconocida y con una presencia social irrelevante? ¿Hay alguna estrategia que nos pueda ayudar a salir de esta situación? ¿Qué podemos hacer cada uno de nosotros y qué podemos hacer juntos para conseguirlo? Estas son las cuestiones que intenta responder este documento originalmente producido por la Alianza Evangélica Británica, y adaptado a nuestro contexto social y eclesial por la AEE.
