Over the last four decades, the focus of M. Douglas Meeks's work
has placed him at the centre of many of the most important
developments in theological reflection and education. As a
political, ecclesial, and metaphorical theologian, Meeks has given
witness to the oikonomia of the triune God, the Homemaker who
creates the conditions of Home for the whole of creation, in
critical conversation with contemporary economic, social, and
political theory. The essays of this volume were written to honour
Meeks, Cal Turner Chancellor Professor Emeritus of Theology at
Vanderbilt University Divinity School, by addressing the theme of
God's economy of salvation from biblical, historical, ecclesial,
and theological perspectives. In an age of ecological devastation
and economic injustice, Meeks teaches us how to place our hope - as
disciples of Jesus, as members of local congregations, as stewards
of institutional life, and as global citizens - in God's power for
life over death through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. These
essays will serve to enliven and clarify this hope for the sake of
the world God so loves.
