Summary: "What is the connection between Christian doctrine and concrete social action? This question marks the often unarticulated divide between systematic theology and liberation theology, each often emphasizing one primarily or formally over the other. Examining the work of Karl Barth, T. F. Torrance, and Jon Sobrino, here Nathan Hieb contests this bifurcation, specifically around the nodal points of the crucifixion, or the doctrine of atonement, and the context of suffering. This book is an innovative study that bridges the boundaries of method, doctrine, and praxis, creating a strong theological and action-oriented relationship between systematic and liberation theology" -- Publisher description.
Introduction -- G.W.F. Hegel and the analysis of theological models -- Unity of atonement and liberation in Barth's CD II/1: "The mercy and righteousness of God" -- Karl Barth's doctrine of atonement -- The church's prophetic vocation in the world -- The affliction and liberation of the Christian -- Conclusion: The unity of atonement and liberation.
