DESCRIPTION

German theologian, Klaus Schwarzwaller reclaims Christ's cross and resurrection as God's wonder and mystery. He connects with art, history, contemporary culture, and especially scripture in presenting a trenchant analysis of the modes of power and production that have undergirded both society and the church since the Enlightenment. Schwarzwaller calls the church and theologians to relinquish both their conformity to society and the indifference that power and production create and instead focus on tending to God's word so that the cross and resurrection are again revealed as God's wonder and mystery.
