Beschreibungen

This collection of studies by friends, colleagues, students, and associates of Thorwald Lorenzen centers on his pivotal research interests--the theological and ethical implications of a relational understanding of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. In two major works on the resurrection, Lorenzen demonstrated the radical ramifications for Christian discipleship of affirming a relational perspective on the resurrection, especially with regard to social justice, human rights, ecumenical dialogue, and holistic spirituality. The purpose of this book is to honor the theological work of Thorwald Lorenzen by examining anew and pressing ahead with certain aspects of his own research interests, whether in historical and systematic theology, biblical exegesis and hermeneutics, or social ethics and spirituality.
Keith D. Dyer is Professor of New Testament at Whitley College in Melbourne, which is also part of the Melbourne College of Divinity. He is the author of
<i>The Prophecy on the Mount: Mark 13 and the Gathering of the New Community</i> (1998).

"This collection of essays celebrates the breadth and depth of the influence of one of the most remarkable Baptists alive today. The topics covered illustrate the diverse range of Lorenzen's interests and expertise, from biblical and theological scholarship to spiritual and ethical implications for life lived in response to the resurrection of Jesus. Provocative and of uniformly high quality, a testament to the powerful combination of intellectual rigor, commitment to the church, and sensitivity to the world's vulnerable characteristic of Lorenzen's own life."
