About this book

God In Political Life by Raymond L. Bridgman is a thought-provoking book that explores the role of religion in politics. The author argues that religion has always played a significant role in shaping political systems and policies, and that it continues to do so today. Bridgman examines the different ways in which religion has influenced politics throughout history, from the ancient Greeks and Romans to the modern era. He also looks at the various religious traditions and how they have impacted political thought and action. The book is divided into three parts: the first part explores the historical relationship between religion and politics, the second part examines the contemporary role of religion in politics, and the third part offers a vision for the future of religion and politics. Throughout the book, Bridgman provides insightful analysis and commentary on the complex relationship between religion and politics, and offers a thoughtful and nuanced perspective on this important topic. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in understanding the role of religion in political life.THIS 86 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Master Idea, by Raymond L. Bridgman.

Teaching Civic Engagement
Using a new model focused on four core capacities-intellectual complexity, social location, empathetic accountability, and motivated action--<em>Teaching Civic Engagement </em>explores the significance of religious studies in fostering a vibrant, just, and democratic civic order. <p/>In the first section of the book, contributors detail this theoretical model and offer an initial application to the sources and methods that already define much teaching in the disciplines of religious studies and theology. A second section offers chapters focused on specific strategies for teaching civic engagement in religion classrooms, including traditional textual studies, reflective writing, community-based learning, field trips, media analysis, ethnographic methods, direct community engagement and a reflective practice of "ascetic withdrawal." The final section of the volume explores theoretical issues, including the delimitation of the "civic" as a category, connections between local and global in the civic project, the question of political advocacy in the classroom, and the role of normative commitments. <p/>Collectively these chapters illustrate the real possibility of connecting the scholarly study of religion with the societies in which we, our students, and our institutions exist. The contributing authors model new ways of engaging questions of civic belonging and social activism in the religion classroom, belying the stereotype of the ivory tower intellectual.
