Between the State and the Eucharist

Theology

“There are indeed significant differences between the ecclesial situation in Scandinavia and in the United States as there are differences between a Free Church ecclesiology, a Lutheran State Church ecclesiology, and a Roman Catholic ecclesiology. All the more reason then to undertake a critical engagement across these boundaries for mutual enlightenment. Between the State and the Eucharist accomplishes this task beautifully when some of the most constructive contemporary Scandinavian theologians encounter the American Catholic theologian William T. Cavanaugh. Important reading for anyone not content with how the church stands in modernity but hoping for a more visionary Christianity, both here and there.”

The Judgment of Love

Theology

“Through his brilliant notion that the divine judgment is a judgment of love, and therefore in itself salvific, James Matarazzo sheds new light on many contested topics in the Christian tradition. What is on offer here is a critical and constructive interpretation that does not shy away from using the specificity of Christian eschatology for addressing our contemporary concerns.”
