全球文化與地緣神學──二十一世紀福音派神學的議程 / 謝品然

撮要

本文以全球化現象內存的全球性與地緣性的互動關係作為場景,進而探討地緣神學,在西方主導下的「神學全球化」現實中的發展空間及其可能性和多樣性, 並祈盼在這進程中濾出福音派在二十一世紀須面對的一些重要神學議題:(1) 地緣神學的拓展;(2)靈恩文化的挑戰;(3)非西方神學教育模式的建立;(4)神學與全球化身分;(5)神學的文化敏銳性。

 

ABSTRACT

The writer elaborates the dynamic interaction between globalization and localization that has emerged in the globalization process. He utilizes this phenomenon as his platform for discussion. He then, studies the possibility of developing local theologies under the present reality of western domination in the theological arena. On the basis of the aforementioned observations, he underlines several important theological issues that Chinese evangelicals will face in the coming century – a century that is undergoing globalization process: (1) an urge for developing a local theology; (2) the challenge of charismatic culture; (3) the development of local theological education; (4) the challenge of an global identity and its hybridity; and (5) the need of developing a culturally sensitive theology.
