{"product_id":"in-the-end-the-beginning-the-life-of-hope-9780800636562","title":"In the End-The Beginning: The Life of Hope","description":"''In my end is my beginning, '' wrote T. S. Eliot, and Jürgen Moltmann's new book is a powerful testament to personal hope in chaotic, even catastrophic times. As Moltmann's award-winning volume The Coming of God laid out the systematic framework of eschatology (the doctrine of the ''last things''), so here he explores the personal meaning of that fundamental affirmation for Christians. Debunking the classic images of Christian apocalyptic scenarios, the final struggle between God and Satan, Christ and the Antichrist-Armageddon-Moltmann instead shows that Christian expectation of the future has nothing to do with these but everything to do with new beginnings and a horizon of hope. Three parts explore three particular beginnings: birth (childhood and youth), rebirth (failures and defeats), and resurrection (death, judgment, afterlife). This brief volume promises to be one of Moltmann's most personal and compelling books.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jurgen Moltmann\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Augsburg Fortress Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.64h x 5.58w x 0.48d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780800636562\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMoltmann, Jürgen:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJürgen Moltmann\u003c\/b\u003e is professor emeritus of systematic theology at the University of Tübingen (Germany).
