To Be Welcomed as Christ

“This beautiful collection models profoundly hospitable collaboration, illuminating Dennis Okholm’s theology as good news: welcome in contrast to the exclusion, distortion and condescension of much of the Western intellectual tradition. In the spirit of Barth, McClendon, and—supremely—Jesus Christ, these essays place theology in that long narrative of the God whose Spirit opens all difference and conflict into an awareness of the beautiful friendship the Father extends to us all in his Son.”
