Causing a considerable stir when it was first published in Germany
in 1965, "Theology of Hope" represents a comprehensive statement of
the importance for theology of eschatology - and of an
eschatological theology which emphasizes the revolutionary effect
of Christian hope upon the thought, institutions and conditions of
life in the here and now. Jurgen Moltmann understands Christian
faith essentially as hope for the future of humankind and creation
as this has been promised by the God of the exodus and the
resurrection of the crucified Jesus. God's promise is the
compulsory force of history, awakening hope which keeps human
beings unreconciled to present experience, sets them in
contradistinction to prevailing natural and social powers, and
makes the church the source of continual new impulses towards, in
Moltmann's own words, "the realization of righteousness, freedom
and humanity in the light of the promised future that is to come".
This new expanded edition of a theological classic includes his
2020 Charles Gore lecture 'A Theology of Hope for the 21st
Century', in which he offers a powerful reflection on the nature of
hope in our current times.
