In this book prominent Barth scholar George Hunsinger presents fifteen essays on Karl Barth s understanding of Christian doctrine across a wide spectrum of topics, concluding with suggestions as to how Barth s theology might fruitfully be retrieved for the future.
Hunsinger discusses Barth s view on such subjects as the Trinity, creation, natural theology, Christology, justification, and time and eternity. As he delves into Barth s theological substance, Hunsinger highlights ways in which Barth s work was "evangelical, Catholic, and Reformed, " illuminating the ecumenical aspects of his thought. No other volume explains Barth s views on this range of topics with such scope, depth, and clarity."
