The Church in the Power of the Spirit - by Jürgen Moltmann (Paperback)

About the Book

Originally published: London: SCM Press, 1977.

Book Synopsis

"This book, which in my opinion is Moltmann's best, can be recommended on the basis that it contains challenging and creative insights that can be used by the discriminating reader in the service of church renewal...Moltmann represents the theology of liberation at its best, and those who wish to know more about this theology would do well to study this creative and searching theologian."
--Donald G. Bloesch
Christianity Today

"Moltmann is perhaps unsurpassed among his contemporaries in keenness of insight and rhetorical power."
--Daniel L. Migliore, Theology Today

"Moltmann presents a stirring vision which every Christian community could well ponder...With a missionary emphasis, he seeks to help the reader face the question of the church's identity in the light of the contemporary political, economic, and social scene."
--Religious Education

From the Back Cover

This book is intended to help the church to find its bearings. The swift change of external circumstances, the revolutionary progress in science and technology, and a simultaneously growing threat through social, military and ecological conflicts have disseminated a feeling of general insecurity among many people in our society.
