Broad Place : An Autobiography
$29.00Jurgen Moltmann’s life and work have marked the history of theology after the Second World War in Europe and North America like no other. He is the most widely read, quoted, and translated theologian of our time. Now, after celebrating his eightieth birthday, he looks back on a life engaged in and forging a Christian response to the tumult and opportunities of our age. In his autobiography Moltmann tells his engaging and searching life story, from his Hamburg youth in an unconventional parental home up to the “incompleteness” of the present moment. Yet his narrative also sheds light on the creative arc of Moltmann’s work, on the journey of his own theological development from its beginnings after World War II through the beginnings of political theology and, most phenomenally, the advent of the theology of hope.
A wide-ranging document alert to the deeper currents of his time and ours, Moltmann’s work is also an engrossing reconsideration of a life full of intense experience and new beginnings.

In The End The Beginning
$29.00“In my end is my beginning,” wrote T. S. Eliot, and Jurgen Moltmann’s new book is a powerful testament to personal hope in chaotic, even catastrophic times.
As Moltmann’s award-winning volume The Coming of God laid out the systematic framework of eschatology (the doctrine of the ‘last things’), so here he explores the personal meaning of that fundamental affirmation for Christians. Debunking the classic images of Christian apocalyptic scenarios, the final struggle between God and Satan, Christ and the Antichrist Armageddon Moltmann instead shows that Christian expectation of the future has nothing to do with these but everything to do with new beginnings and a horizon of hope. Three parts explore three particular beginnings: birth (childhood and youth), rebirth (failures and defeats), and resurrection (death, judgment, afterlife).
This brief volume promises to be one of Moltmann’s most personal and compelling books.

Science And Wisdom
$23.00Weighing both the pluses and minuses of modern science, Moltmann specifically assesses contemporary cosmology. He ponders the creation as an open system, the self-emptying of God in the history of the universe, problems of time and eternity, ideas of God and space, as well as the last things.

Experiences In Theology
$30.00Theology always has been (and is for Moltmann) not an abstract or otherworldly endeavor but one nourished by, and responsive to, experiences in and with life itself. In this volume, the final in his series of systematic “contributions” to theology, Moltmann looks ahead from the landmarks of his own theological journey. He searches out those intersections of his own life with contemporary events that have kindled and impelled his theological thinking (part 1). The perspective of hope, the central moment in Moltmann’s thought, is freshly explained, while other basic theological themes and concepts are developed and interrelated (part 2).
But more than that, Moltmann uses these theological tinders to spark the flames of the chief directions in liberating theological thought today_black, Latin American, Minjung, and feminist theologies _(part 3) and the central motif of Trinity (part 4).
This volume not only introduces Moltmann’s theology, it also utilizes the contemporary religious and political scene to incite ones own theological reflection.

God For A Secular Society
$29.00In this masterful analysis of the religious and political dilemmas at the end of the modern age, world-renowned theologian Jurgen Moltmann assays the vaulting dreams and colossal failures of our time. He asks how we came to this point, and he argues strenuously for Christian discipleship and public theology that take sides. In both critical and creative ways he advances the specific relevance of Chrisian messianic hope to today’s thorniest political, economic, and ecological questions-including human rights, environmental rights, globalization, market capitalism, fundamentalisms, and Jewish-Christian relations-and the deeper values contested therein.

Haggai
$29.00In this distinguished commentary, Wolff is concerned to defend Haggai as much more than a “minor” prophet. He was a man whose feet were placed firmly on the ground, one of the dominating figures of the postexilic community, the main instigator of the rebuilding of the Jerusalem temple, and so responsible for inaugurating a new era in Jewish history. This commentary is verse by verse, includes the text written out for the reader, and offers excellent bibliographical information with detailed footnotes. Most appropriate for scholars and academics, rather than for laypeople who do not have a working knowledge of biblical Hebrew. Hans Walter Wolff is emeritus professor of Old Testament at the University of Heidelberg.
