Critical Essays on Edward Schillebeeckx's Theology

More about the book

Edward Schillebeeckx's teachings challenge traditional Catholic theology, emphasizing relevance in a secular, modern world shaped by reason and scientific progress. He reinterprets Christian doctrines by replacing metaphysical concepts with a natural perspective, viewing God as humanity's future and Christ as a symbol of universal values. The Church is redefined as a community embodying these values, aiming to provide meaningful answers to contemporary existential questions. Schillebeeckx's approach seeks to make theology accessible and applicable to today's society.
