A companion to the film by Martin Doblmeier. Reinhold Niebuhr
(1892-1971) was an inner-city pastor, ethics professor, and author
of the famous Serenity Prayer. Time magazine's March 8, 1948, cover
story called him "the greatest Protestant theologian in America
since Jonathan Edwards." Cited as an influence by presidents
ranging from Dwight Eisenhower to Barack Obama, Niebuhr was
described by historian Arthur Schlesinger Jr. as "the most
influential American theologian of the twentieth century." In this
companion volume to the forthcoming documentary film by Martin
Doblmeier on the life and influence of Reinhold Niebuhr, Jeremy
Sabella draws on an unprecedented set of exclusive interviews to
explore how Niebuhr continues to compel minds and stir consciences
in the twenty-first century. Interviews with leading voices such as
Jimmy Carter, David Brooks, Cornel West, and Stanley Hauerwas as
well as with people who knew Niebuhr personally, including his
daughter Elisabeth, provide a rich trove of original material to
help readers understand Niebuhr's enduring impact on American life
and thought.
