Description

In the last several years, Walter Brueggemann's writingshave directly addressed the situation of Christiancommunities in today's globalized context, with itsconsumerist lifestyles, vast inequalities, and near-imperialexercises of power. His insights, forged in rugged encounterswith the texts of the Old Testament, are sharp, painful, andindispensable. In the People of Israel Brueggemann finds amodel of an alternative community - anchored in YHWH, ever exploring new possibilities, and prophetically bentagainst empire.
