A key work by each of these theologians is paired with an essential moment in the biblical narrative of salvation: Creation, Exodus, Conquest, Exile, Incarnation, Crucifixion, Resurrection, Pentecost, and the End of Time. This framework focuses attention on the theologian as both a thinker responding to the issues of the day as well as a spiritual guide helping us better understand the Christian life."--BOOK JACKET.
