American consumerism and God's Kingdom economy in a Massachusetts congregation

Lawrence, Priscilla A. 02 May 2022 (has links)
The Community Church of Pepperell in Pepperell, MA has a well-established pattern of fundraising events to support itself and its mission. Replicating the ubiquity of consumerism in American culture, buying and selling is the foundation of church activities, events, celebrations, and even worship itself. This project develops the concept of God’s Kingdom economy as it works to move this congregation, and perhaps others like it, from being controlled by the impulses of American consumerism. This transformation involves laying aside consumption for its own sake, rather using it to caring for our neighbors, serve, and share God’s love. Specialized worship services are created that incorporate the transformative power of testimonies and preaching as a way to reframe excessive church fundraising.

The bibliographical analysis will focus mainly on the texts produced by Gustavo Gutiérrez and René Padilla, especially those that discuss discussions about the kingdom of God and the church in the mission of the church, pointing out the definitions of the Kingdom of God and the repercussions that the relationship between them Plays in the formulation of Latin American theology to identify the issues we will put into dialogue to identify some divergences and convergences. But certainly other authors will appear in dialogue with the research. / Este trabalho tem por objetivo realizar uma análise dos conceitos de Reino de Deus nas teologias latino-americanas da libertação de Gustavo Gutiérrez e da missão integral de René Padilla por meio de uma pesquisa bibliográfica dos autores, como também possíveis questões divergentes e convergentes, identificando as causas de seus escritos acerca da temática, estabelecendo qual a importância do conceito em relação às questões da teologia da missão da igreja e demonstrando em que medida suas proposições se mostram como uma continuidade da teologia predominante ou rompimento. A análise bibliográfica terá como foco principal os textos produzidos por Gustavo Gutiérrez e René Padilla, principalmente aqueles que abordam discussões acerca do Reino da Deus e da igreja na missão da igreja, apontando as definições de Reino de Deus e as repercussões que a relação entre eles desempenha na formulação da teologia latino-americana para identificar as questões que colocaremos em diálogo para identificar algumas divergências e convergências. Mas por certo outros autores surgirão em diálogo com a pesquisa.

Com a primeira redação localizada na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, sob a liderança do pioneiro presbiteriano Ashbel Green Simonton, o jornal estendeu o seu alcance aos locais onde o presbiterianismo fundou suas missões. Teve como principal eixo de distribuição as então províncias do Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo e Minas Gerais. A redação variou entre o Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo. Objetivando compreender os aspectos históricos da esperança religiosa na formação da Igreja Presbiteriana do Brasil, investigaremos de que maneira o Jornal Imprensa Evangélica apresentou aos seus leitores o conceito metafórico de “Reino de Deus”. Para isso, consideraremos os papéis atribuídos a Deus e ao homem, ao Estado e à Igreja, ao indivíduo e à família no processo de expansão do “Reino de Deus” e do progresso no Império do Brasil, inclusive nos eventos traumáticos das guerras de Secessão, do Paraguai e do Risorgimento Italiano. / In pursuit of an alternative to the public diffusion of the Reformed Christian faith, limited by the officialdom of the Catholic Church, the Presbyterian missionaries founded the Evangelical Press Newspaper (1864-1892), the first Protestant newspaper in circulation in Brazil. With the first essay located in the city of Rio de Janeiro, under the leadership of Presbyterian pioneer Ashbel Green Simonton, the newspaper extended its reach to the places where Presbyterianism founded its missions. It had as main axis of distribution the province of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Minas Gerais. The writing ranged between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. In order to understand the historical aspects of religious hope in the formation of the Presbyterian Church in Brazil, we will investigate how the Evangelical Press Journal presented the metaphorical concept of the "Kingdom of God" to its readers. For this, we will consider the roles attributed to God and man, the State and the Church, the individual and the family in the process of expansion of the “Kingdom of God” and the progress in the Brazilian Empire and in the following wars: Secession, Paraguay and the Italian Risorgimento.

Radikale en gedifferensieerde universumgerigte pentekostalisme

Hoewel die moderner neopentekostalistiese oftewel charismatiese weergawe van klassieke pentekostalisme aandag kry om as kriterium van vergelyking le dien, val die hoofklem op klassieke pentekosta/isme. Uiteraard kom die verskillende Geesdoopmodelle pertinent aan die orde. En in die lig hiervan poneer hierdie studie dan 'n kraaknuwe globalistiese Geesdoopmodel, genaamd die RGU-Geesdoopmodel wat dui op 'n Radikale en Gedifferensieerde Universumgerigte Geesdoopmodel. Hierdie nuwe RGU-Geesdoopmodel impliseer logiesgewys dan ook 'n radikale revolusionere paradigmatiese ommeswaai van en verandering in die ou klassieke Geesdoopperspektiewe. Noodwendig impliseer dit ook 'n grater oopspanning van die teologies-wetenskaplike navorsingspeelveld en die interverwante relasies daarvan met alle teologiese en nie-teologiese wetenskappe en bedrywe, met alle kerklike en nie-kerklike kaders, met alle religieuse en nie-religieuse kringe, asook met alle teoretiese en praksiologiese ingesteldhede. Gebiedsafbakening is dus ook gebiedend noodsaaklik en onontbeerlik. Die sentrifigale vernouing van die studieskopus hanteer dan uiteraard net die essensieile teologies-wysgerige en praksiologiese impakte, nie net op die ou klassieke pentekostalisme nie, maar ook op alle teologiee en alle filosofiee en alle wetenskappe, wat op 'n samehangende holisties-geintegreerde wyse universumgerig tot een groot globale geheel omskep word / In this research a totally new Radical and Differentiated Universal-directed approach to theology, pneumatologyand particularly the old classical pentecostalism's narrow particularistically and so called unique elitistic model of Spiritbatism is critically investigated on theological-philosophical levels. Though the moderner neo-pentecostalistic or rather charismatic rendering of classical pentecostalism receives attention to serve as criterion for comparison, the main focus is on classical pentecostalism. Naturally the different models of Spiritbaptism comes pertinently on the table. And in the light of this, our study propose a brand new globalistic model for Spiritbaptism, namely the RDU-Spiritbaptism-mode lwhich signifies a Radical and Differentiated Universal-directed model of Spiritbaptism. This new RDU-Spiritbaptism-model also logically implies a radical revolutionary paradigmshift and tum-about in the old classical Spiritbaptism perspectives. This inevitably also implies a widening of the theological-scientific field and the interrelatedness thereof with all theological and non-theological sciences and professions, with all ecclesiological and non-ecclesiological scopes, with all religious and non-religious circles, as well as all theoretical and praxiological inclinations. Confinement of territory is thus also imperatively essential and indispensable. The centrifical narrowing of the studyscope handles naturally only the essential theological-philosophical and praxiological impacts, not only on the old classical pentecostalism, but also on all theologies and all philosophies and all sciences which are all transformed in a coherent holistically interconnected fashion to one great universal whole / Philosophy, Practical & Systematic Theology / D.
