Introducing Prophetic Pragmatism

A Dialogue on Hope, the Philosophy of Race, and the Spiritual Blues

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Pragmatism is a philosophical school of thought emphasizing action, practices, and practical reasoning whereas prophecy is an ancient religious concept that requires belief in the reality of God. Although these two concepts seem to not be a natural fit with one another, the authors demonstrate why prophetic pragmatism is "pragmatism at its best."
