Die Autorinnen dieses Bandes setzen sich mit theologischen, alltagskulturellen und alltagspraktischen Perspektiven des Älterwerdens - zwischen 'Alterskatastrophe' und 'Schönes neues Alter' - auseinander. Dabei legen sie den Schwerpunkt auf den Umgang mit Alternswahrnehmungen und -erfahrungen, mit Krisen und biographischen Brüchen und bieten direkt umsetzbare Modelle für Seminar und Workshop, Gottesdienst und Liturgie. Ermutigt wird zu einem kreativen aktiven Umgang mit dem Erleben des eigenen Alterns und mit dem Altern anderer. Wie ist den vielfältigen Aspekten des Alterns theologisch Rechnung zu tragen? Welche Spiritualität lässt sich entdecken und feiern?

All over the world there is the move towards just gender relations – even if the odds seem to be less hopeful than a decade ago. This poses a special task for Christians and Churches in service of the marginalised who engage in the fight for justice. The articles collected in this volume provide insights from two intercultural theological conferences. The topic for the European-Asian dialogue focuses on "Gender and Ecclesiology". The European dialogue between western and eastern Central European countries has a special aim for gender theories and their theological and political implications. The book presents contributions from different perspectives and shows how the Christian churches can contribute to gender justice.
