Principles for a New Ressourcement in a Time of Crisis

Tracey Rowland explores the "German ressourcement" movement, centered around the journal Hochland, as a vital framework for contemporary theological renewal. Addressing crises in anthropology and the nature of the human person, she outlines seven principles to counter both "bourgeois Christianity" and atheistic humanism. Rowland advocates for a Christocentric humanism that prioritizes logos over ethos, maintains the unity of theological disciplines, and engages spiritual challenges on "sacramental ground" rather than through secularized accommodation.
