Synopsis

This book shares the results of a symposium held to honor the work of Walter Brueggemann and Charles Cousar at Columbia Theological Seminary on the occasion of their retirement. Each author and each chapter of the book simultaneously engages the Bible, the church and the world--a three-part engagement that was fundamental to the acclaimed careers of Brueggemann and Cousar.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

"Walter Brueggemann and Charlie Cousar have told us repeatedly to watch for the ways God’s Word shakes the earth, they have assured us that God’s realm is unshakable, and they call us to respond to the shaking of God’s Word and the unshakability of God’s realm with worship, with reverence, with thanksgiving. In celebration of that wisdom, and for their countless other gifts to us of collegiality and friendship, we offer them this book with deep love and gratitude." —from the Foreword by the editors
