This volume performs a critical and vibrant reconstruction of
Anabaptist identity and theological method, in the wake of the
recent revelations of the depth of the sexual abuse perpetrated by
the most influential Anabaptist theologian of the 20th century,
John Howard Yoder. In an attempt to liberate Anabaptist theology
and identity from the constricting vision appropriated and
reformulated by Yoder, these essays refuse the determinative
categories of the last half century supplied by and carried beyond
Harold Bender's The Anabaptist Vision. While still under the shadow
of decades of trauma, a recontexualized conversation about
Anabaptist theology and identity emerges in this volume that is
ecumenically engaged, philosophically astute, psychologically
attuned, and resolutely vulnerable. The volume offers a Trinitarian
and Christological framework that holds together the importance of
Scripture, tradition, and the lived experience of the Christian
community, as the contributors examine a wide variety of issues
such as Mennonite feminism, Anabaptist queer theology, and
Mennonite theological methods. These essays interrogate the
operations of power, violence, exclusion, and privilege in
methodology in this changed context, offering self-critical
constructive alternatives for articulating Anabaptist theology and
identity.
