Text of the page (random words):
en we re going to have to find something else that does the job at least as well in other words when it comes to our thinking about the christian life we may have to get beyond discipleship but we can t go over it we can t go under it we can t go around it we ve got to go through it four in fleshing out what discipleship means we inevitably go beyond what the gospels present in fact as ian paul fleshes out discipleship in terms of decision learning and community he is forced to develop his doctrine of the christian life beyond the bounds of merely being a disciple as it was known and practiced prior to jesus the rabbis had disciples and even in the gospels at one point he even admits this describing discipleship as the root from which the more widely observable language of decision learning and community spring up and this is where things really start to get interesting because thinking of discipleship as the root of full christian character and living actually invites us towards the theological maturity and balance woodhead and tilby crave the tree is so much more than the root even if it s all latent in the root but as it does so it calls us to guard against sacrificing the sharp edges of our evangelical preference for discipleship language does christianity discipleship february 27 2015 christian formation christian living discipleship ethics theology chris swann view all 2 comments photo pieds 1 of 20 devan foster my research on the theological significance of discipleship in the reformed tradition has begun one of the big questions i m faced with right off the bat is how to understand discipleship is it coextensive with being christian is it real christianity the genuine article as opposed to say nominalism or carnal christianity or something else some are outspoken about this famously dietrich bonhoeffer said the cost of discipleship christianity without the living christ is inevitably christianity without discipleship and christianity without discipleship is always christianity without christ it remains an abstract idea a myth which has a place for the fatherhood of god but omits christ as the living son and a christianity of that kind is nothing more nor less than the end of discipleship in such a religion there is trust in god but no following of christ because the son of god became man because he is the mediator for that reason alone the only true relation we can have with him is to follow him in saying this bonhoeffer is making common cause with what has been described as the anabaptist vision that is the vision of faith and life expressed by the equation christianity discipleship and there is something clearly right about this again and again jesus summoned people to discipleship to follow him rather than merely associating themselves with him from a distance to embrace him on his terms rather than their own after burying their dead or saying good bye to their families for example to publicly own him rather than secretly nursing some private conviction or experience more there is something deeply appealing i love bonhoeffer s christocentrism for him as for barth jesus has to define and shape our allegiance to him not some system principle or idea even an idea about jesus but things are just a little more complicated obviously right or i d hardly think i could get a phd out of it for one thing jesus seems to not just call people to follow him as many had done before and many would do after him but also to rework expand and give new content to what such following means i m also not 100 sure that the simple equation of christianity with discipleship can be made without some important remainder in the end what i m seeking is a more thoroughly jesus shaped vision of the christian life and i m happy to look almost anywhere for it whether to the anabaptists and their heirs or the magisterial reformers like calvin and their heirs even if it means displacing discipleship as the central organising image for being christian the theological significance of discipleship a proposal november 4 2014 uncategorized chris swann view all 5 comments so i submitted this phd proposal last week if i m accepted as a candidate and the government decides to give me a scholarship then i guess you can expect to hear more about it in the next little while i propose to examine the extent to which the concept and language of discipleship may provide a resource for systematic theology with specific reference to the reformed tradition prominent in the gospels discipleship has been extensively examined in new testament studies and its significance for christian ethics missiology and practical theology is recognised with increasing enthusiasm early church and orthodox accounts of theosis medieval spiritualities of imitation the interest in spiritual formation in roman catholic moral theology and the anabaptist attention to jesus summons to a distinctive polity all reflect the prominence of discipleship in the foundational christian documents in contrast the churches of the magisterial reformation are alleged to have a discipleship shaped hole in their theology and spirituality so emphasising god s unilateral action in salvation and the response of faith alone that they tend towards the cheap grace attacked by bonhoeffer in the cost of discipleship 1959 john calvin for example hesitated to explicitly deploy discipleship language in his account of the christian life although karl barth church dogmatics iv 2 506 has argued that the context in which calvin set this account prevented his paradigmatic reformed emphasis on faith alone from becoming a comfortable kiss of peace issuing no summons to a distinctive life and community john webster discipleship and calling scottish bulletin of evangelical theology 23 2 2005 133 47 proposes that the language of discipleship connects jesus formation of a new humanity to god s character i intend to assess then how this language might assist theologians to approach god practically in response to jesus christ rather than behind his back beginning with calvin and moving to some modern heirs of the reformed tradition i will probe its reticence towards the language of discipleship in order to establish in conversation with karl barth and john howard yoder the extent to which it is theologically politically and or polemically motivated these lines of inquiry will enable me to determine the opportunities for and limitations of a reformed contribution to the contemporary conversation about discipleship the next chapter of the discipleship story august 18 2014 christian living discipleship identity chris swann leave a comment last year i attended a seminar at the annual national conference for the christian student movement i m part of it s topic was discipleship what it looks like to follow and imitate jesus a key moment in the seminar came early on where our speaker framed the question of discipleship like this we can t walk on water we can t cure lepers so what does it mean to say we want to be like jesus when he said this we all chortled along i did too i even tweeted it haw haw yes of course and he had a point when jesus talks about what it means to follow him he always emphasises being conformed to him in his self emptying for the sake of others christian discipleship is about following the path he walked service self denial suffering but i ve realised that there s another chapter in the story of discipleship in many ways it s the chapter of discipleship s future the glory following the suffering the resurrection following the crucifixion the new testament gives us a preview of this when one disciple does in fact walk on water in matthew 14 the disciples see jesus walking on the water most of them freak out not sure what they re seeing but peter has faith and asks if he can go out to be where jesus is and jesus agrees it s a dramatic moment and if it s meant to be a picture of the christian life then surely it s primarily about where that life is heading towards the glory of sharing in christ s perfect rule over creation and yet there s also much about peter s faltering combination of courage and doubt overwhelmed and distracted by his circumstances that speaks to us of the christian now indeed the themes that swell in this story trust loyalty and the need to develop a christ centred gaze simply are the main themes of the christian life they re as true and urgent now in our conformity with christ s sufferings as they will be when we join him in his unveiled glory for the invitation contained in christ s call to follow him is the invitation to take up our fullest and truest humanity humanity in fellowship with god renewed in his image and renovated by his spirit and to do so not simply after we ve emptied ourselves but also in emptying ourselves that is the next chapter of the discipleship story the chapter in which discipleship is the glorious road to our best humanity trusting and looking to jesus above all and becoming like him even when that means falteringly setting out across the waters why does the bible say what it does july 15 2014 theological method theology chris swann leave a comment i m kind of a systems guys personal and pastoral family systems ministry systems above all systematic theology that shouldn t be news for anyone who knows me even if just from the blog but i ve only just realised what it is that drives my interest in systems apart from the inclinations stitched into my personality reinforced by experience and plucked out by situational necessity deep down what drives it is my borderline obsession with one single question why does the bible say what it does you see for better or worse i think it s for better i m really really really interested in what the bible says it s the bedrock of my life and faith it was modelled to me by the people who taught me the christian faith and how to live it it is almost the central and defining part of my christian heritage as a reformed evangelical and it s what i invested four years of intensive formal theological education to be thoroughly equipped to pursue but i m starting to realise it s only a means to an end when it comes to knowing loving and living for god what the bible says is subordinate to the even more fundamental question of why it says it and the why question is the key to thinking in terms of systems because once you start asking it e g why does paul say what he says human authorities being god appointed in romans 13 and why does that seem to be different from the picture painted in revelation 13 you re already doing systematic theology better still you re doing it as a natural extension of exegesis which is exactly what it is and because asking it also helps you tune into the personal and pastoral implications of a passage along the lines of bryan chapell s so called fallen condition focus which invites you to ponder what particular pastoral situation and what underlying realities of living in a fallen world each biblical passage addresses and from here the systematic flower blooms in all it s manifold glory the best commentary i know on jonah may 26 2014 biblical theology what the chris swann leave a comment wide wide as the ocean high as the heavens above deep deep as

of the old testament april 9 2014 lead balloons chris swann leave a comment i ve had the opportunity to speak on the psalms a bit lately and i ve been doing some obligatory puzzling about the authorship and ascription of the whole psalter david s authorship or influence towers over the psalter many of the psalms are labelled with the hebrew for of david or possibly for david and even though a good number are ascribed to other authors there s a sense in which the psalms are still overwhelmingly davidish if not davidic while ancient composers may not have had the same scruples as we tend to about plagiarism i m beginning to wonder whether the davidic ascription is less about authorship and more about style and voice kind of like the indie publisher mcsweeney s a host of authors and aspiring authors write for mcsweeney s they write in different genres about different subjects and for different purposes and yet there s a striking similarity of style casual observational shoot from the hip tone usually ironic stock literary devices etc across them all a mcsweeney s piece is always recognisably a mcsweeney s piece it s like the literary version of the hipster dress code none of which is meant as a criticism the highly conventional even stylised feel of things that are published in mcsweeney s can mean they come off as hollow and unoriginal but they don t have to in fact sometimes the very same conventions of style and tone can become vehicles for brilliance substantial personal transcendent and unique in doing this the recognisable conventions also seem to help us find ourselves in the pieces published by mcsweeney s and my hunch is that the davidic davidish ascription of the psalms as the tip of the iceberg for the collection of conventions that make up the poetry of the psalter may be part of what lets us take them on our lips as our own songs and prayers post navigation older posts pages about resources august 2026 m t w t f s s 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
