The theology of Karl Barth has often been a productive dialogue
partner for evangelical theology, but for too long the dialogue has
been dominated by questions of orthodoxy. Karl Barth and the Future
of Evangelical Theology contributes to the conversation through a
creative reconfiguration of both partners in the conversation,
neither of whom can be rightly understood as preservers of
Protestant orthodoxy. Rather, American evangelicalism is identified
with the revivalist forms of Protestantism that arose in the
post-Reformation era, while Barth is revisited as a theologian
attuned both to divine and human agency. In the ensuing
conversation, questions of orthodoxy are not eliminated but
subordinated to a concern for the life of God and God's people. By
offering an alternative to the dominant constraints, this book
opens up new avenues for fruitful conversation on Barth and the
future of evangelical theology.
The Resurrected God is an exciting, innovative examination of the
resurrection of Christ and its relationship to the doctrine of the
Trinity in the mature work of Karl Barth, particularly across the
three parts of volume IV of the Church Dogmatics. John Drury argues
that, for Barth, the subject and basis of Christ's resurrection is
the triune God. The volume demonstrates that Barth explicated the
doctrine of Christ's resurrection through a unique Trinitarian
grammar and grounds the event of the resurrection in the eternal
triune being of God. Closely expositing and analyzing Barth's
deployment of this Trinitarian grammar in the fourth volume, the
author turns to a constructive reconsideration of Barth's earlier
doctrine of the Trinity in the first volume, examining that
material in light of the concept of God operative in the later
work. Thinking with and beyond Barth, the author concludes that
resurrection is inextricably linked with the Triune life of the God
who raises and is raised.
