This volume examines what it means to proceed in the path of wisdom
by beginning with fear of God, that is, mindfulness always and
everywhere of God's being and presence. Michael Allen describes the
praxis of fearing the Lord, how that posture of contemplative
pursuit marks the theological task and defines our theological
method; in so doing it takes up the significant topics of divine
revelation, theological exegesis, intellectual asceticism, and
retrieval/ressourcement from a distinctly doctrinal perspective. In
each of these conversations, doing theology in the presence of God
functions as a consistent thread. God is not mere object but truly
functions as subject in the process of theological growth, though
God's presence and agency fund rather than negate creaturely
theological responsibility. The Fear of the Lord: Essays on
Theological Method explores some of the most central questions of
contemporary theological method - revelation, Scripture,
theological interpretation, retrieval, intellectual asceticism,
scholastic method - by asking in each and every case what it means
to think fundamentally of the perfect and present God involved and
active in these spheres.
