Bonhoeffer as Youth Worker

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Andrew Root argues convincingly that Bonhoeffer scholars have overlooked a significant and animating aspect of his theological formation: his regular interaction with youth and children. In recovering this thread of Bonhoeffer's ministry, Root finds a forefather for the kind of theological youth ministry that he has been promoting, critiques contemporary technological approaches to youth ministry, and weaves together a practical-theological 'place-sharing' approach to youth ministry that engages the concrete and lived experiences of youth. This is an important book.”

From Crisis to Creation

Evangelism & Missions

“From Crisis to Creation fills a gap in our understanding of Newbigin's missiology and will certainly find a home whenever missiology and ecumenics are studied.”

The Necessity of Witness

Theology

“Ariaan Baan deftly navigates Stanley Hauerwas' indirect theological method and identifies an illuminating and persistent theme for understanding his articulations of truth, Spirit, and Church--his account of Christian witness as a 'testimony of life.' . . . Baan's work makes a unique contribution to theology by developing a framework for examining and evaluating theological reflection on Christian witness.”
