"Shuman presents articles based on how the work of author Wendell Berry can be interpreted in to the context of living a true Christian life." --
""Wendell Berry is our most important writer at work in this country.... [Wendell Berry and Religion] will help people see the roots of his work, beyond the idea that he is 'writing about farming.'"" -- Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature
""It may surprise some of Wendell Berry's many followers that his views have been greatly influenced by his Christian faith, and it may surprise some Christians that their communities and their theology very much need to be influenced by Berry's kind of Christianity. These are the insights we owe to the contributors of this important book."" -- Albert Borgmann, author of Real American Ethics
"Editors Joel J. Shuman and L. Roger Owens examine the theological themes found throughout Berry's work and seek to expose those Christian principles while at the same time critiquing them." -- kydirect.net
""This is a remarkable collection for reference and reflection."--Mary Popham, The Courier Journal" --
""Presents the sophisticated, yet accessible writing of clear thinking, principled individuals who care deeply about their faith and the places and communities in which they live."-- Christianity and Literature" --

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: New. From our reading, it seems as though Wendell Berry's explicit references to religion are as infrequent as the religious spirit of his writings is pervasive and unmistakable (Jayber Crow is the chief exception to this rule). There is a very short distance indeed between the consistent themes of his work-reverence for creation and especially for inimitable human persons and their communities-and religious and theological truths. The contributors to this collection of essays include theologians, pastors and writers Elizabeth and Fred Bahnson, Kyle Childress, Richard Church, Ellen Davis, Stanley Hauerwas, D. Brent Laytham, Philip A. Muntzel, Charles R. Pinches, Brian Volck, Scott Williams, and Norman Wirzba, and their work joins a growing secondary literature on Berry found in Wendell Berry and the Cultivation of Life and Wendell Berry: Life and Work. 272 pp. Seller Inventory # 62379
