Living By Faith

Theology

“Oswald Bayer's Living by Faith is a timely address and word of promise to our perennial efforts to justify ourselves and to our double bind of being both 'excuse-making animals' and finding our identities in our achievements. Following Luther, Bayer reminds us that the central subjects of theology are humanity's guilt and condemnation for sin and God the Justifier and Savior of sinners. 'Whatever is asked or discussed in theology outside this subject,' says Luther, 'is error and poison.' With the author of Job as well as with Luther, Bayer understands that the proper issue today, as in all days, is not theodicy but anthropodicy.”

Luther

“Ebeling does more than interpret and relate Luther's thought for us, he actually introduces us to Luther himself.... He furthers our understanding of both Luther and the contemporary hermeneutical issues by dealing with the way Luther grasped and spoke the word of God.”

Luther the Reformer

History & Biography

“A masterful book. Kittleson presents us with a 'good read' of the whole of Luther's life in a manageable length.”

The Scandalous God

Theology

“Westhelle provides an incisive theological review and critique of historical and contemporary efforts to grasp and express the scandal of God's death on the cross. A timely, provocative, and creative book!”
