Spanning the continents, three internationally respected
theologians demonstrate how the thought and legacy of Martin Luther
can serve in an ecumenical and interfaith context as a resource for
a radical critique of global economics and culture. Lutheran
Christianity originated in its own era of economic and cultural
crisis. One of the great misinterpretations of Martin Luther has
considered his heritage as fundamentally reactionary, seeking to
preserve the political status quo. Instead, set free by the
biblical message of liberation, this book wields Luther's theology
to engage the reality of poverty, hunger, oppression, and
ecological degradation caused by an imperial capitalism as the most
urgent theological issues in the contemporary world. The volume
demonstrates the liberating possibilities of theology done out of a
biblical and Lutheran perspective for the economic and cultural
crises facing the church in the present century.
