This book details the development and contours of Karl Barth's
robust and lively vision of Christian and ecclesial life in the
early years of his career. In this remarkable work Michael O'Neil
investigates Karl Barth's theology in the turbulent and dynamic
years of his nascent career, between 1915 and 1922. It focuses on
the manner in which this great theologian construed Christian and
ecclesial existence. The author argues that Karl Barth developed
his theology with an explicit ecclesial and ethical motive in a
deliberate attempt to shape the ethical life of the church in the
troublesome context within which he lived and worked. O'Neil adopts
a chronological and exegetical reading of Barth's work from the
initial dispute with his liberal heritage (c.1915) until the
publication of the second edition of his commentary on romans. Not
only does this work contribute to a broader understanding of
Barth's theology both in its early development, and with regard to
his ecclesiology and ethics, it also provides a significant
framework and material for contemporary ecclesial reflection on
Christian identity and mission.
