The intersection of religion and development has for some decades been considered contentious, with scholars of both disciplines inhibited by the constraints of either the religious or the secular paradigm they primarily inhabit. Development Beyond the Secular aims to provide a new resource for those interested in the study of religions and development (primarily postgraduate and academic), and for those development practitioners wishing to contextualize their discipline within a religious frame. Using the work of Christian Aid as its primary lens, this book examines and critiques the theological underpinnings of development work and questions how Christian values are manifest through daytoday work in the world of poverty eradication. Table of Contents 1. Practical Theology and Faithbased Development 2. Secular and Faithbased Development *Defining development *The shared origins of faith and secular development *Economic growth models of development *Secularization and its impact on development *Faith discourses of development *The capabilities approach, faith and development 3. Three Theological Voices: Discerning faith at work *The three theological voices explicit, implicit and null *Christian Aids identity expressed through the voices *Christian Aids values expressed through the voices *Christian Aids theologies of international development *Working with Christian Aids theologies of development 4. New Life in Christ: A renewed theology of development *A Christology of development for a prophetic future *Christ as equality: A theology of mutual partnership
