| Abstract | "Walter Wink's writing has been described as brilliant, provocative, passionate, and innovative. His skills in critical scholarship were matched by an engaging and honest style that make his work a must read for twenty-first century theologians and all who seek deeper understanding at the intersection of Bible, theology, social ethics, and more. This volume of collected readings, edited by Henry French, draws from Wink's essential theological works, focusing on Wink's interminable quest to integrate theology with experience--rejecting the objectivism that separates "theory from practice, mind from body, reason from emotion, knowledge from experience."--Cover. |
