Review:
The academy truly meets the church on the ground in this volume, and attests to the importance of theological excellence engaging with the communities outside the university. It challenges preconceptions on a number of levels and lays the foundation for engaging theological discussions that seek relevant, contextual theology firmly grounded in traditional scholarship.
