      Our God Loves Justice: An Introduction to Helmut Gollwitzer

      Product Description

      Helmut Gollwitzer was a direct heir of the theological legacy of the great Protestant theologian Karl Barth. Yet, Gollwitzeræs work is perhaps least appreciated and studied, especially in English, of all of Barthæs immediate "descendants." A Protestant theologian and member of the Confessing Church movement in World War II-era Germany, Gollwitzer studied under Karl Barth at the Universities of Bonn and Basle and was professor of Protestant theology at the University of Berlin. Deeply influenced by his mentor, Gollwitzer appropriated the methodological principles of Barthæs theology and developed in new and particularly contextual directions one of Barthæs most penetrating constructive insights in the doctrine of God. At the same time, Gollwitzer, more than any of Barthæs other interpreters, embraced and extended the sociopolitical impulses and implications within Barthæs theology. In this, Gollwitzer embodies a salient alternative for theological and political discourse, one especially needed in the American context of increasingly intertwined theological and political discourses. This volume, the first book-length study of Gollwitzer available in English, provides a helpful introduction to the life, theology, and political thought of this crucial theologian and public intellectual and makes clear Gollwitzeræs importance to the North American context.
