Making Love with Scripture offers an accessible way of thinking
about scriptural interpretation, showing how the destabilization of
the text can open us up to the Iiberative work of God's Spirit. It
also shows how such a destabilization neither obviates deep
evangelical commitments nor renders the text meaningless and
ineffectual. It posits a mode of understanding the Word of God
revealed in Scripture that melds what is best and life-giving from
both the evangelical and mainline traditions. Making Love with
Scripture is written for those who reject the dichotomy between
evangelical hermeneutics that affirm the importance of Scripture
for Christian faith and practice and mainline hermeneutics that
diminish or ignore the Bible's significance in favor of acts of
justice in the world. It addresses those of us who seek a way
toward the liberation of the created order out of systems of
oppression and marginalization while at the same time affirming the
agency of the Word in and through the biblical witness.
