In his concise presentation of evangelical theology, the theology that first received expression in the New Testament writings and was later rediscovered by the Reformation, Karl Barth discusses the place of theology, theological existence, the threat to theology, and theological work.

For those who proclaim the Word of God, Karl Barth's Church Dogmatics is a rich and valuable source of inspiration and instruction. Yet the sheer magnitude of this 13-volume work understandably intimidates the busy minister, whose time for meditation and sermon preparation is limited. Inspired by Barth's belief that dogmatic theology exists to serve the proclamation of the church, Preaching through the Christian Year offers a choice selection of some of the most significant exegetical passages that appear in the Dogmatics. To aid ministers in their sermon preparation, editors John McTavish and Harold Wells have arranged these selections according to the church year. Serious students and teachers will also welcome this volume, particularly as it brings to light the biblical basis for Barth's thinking. - Back cover.

This classic volume of Barth's essays was first published in 1924 under the title 'Das Wort Gottes und die Theologie'. In this brand new English edition all the critical apparatus is translated, each chapter including an explanatory passage giving general historical context and details of Barth's own biography. These essays represent the very best of Barth's work. Far from being superceded by the Church Dogmatics, indeed, a thorough understanding of the Church Dogmatics must presuppose a close knowledge of them. The style is vivid, deeply engaged and engaging, often expressionistic (making frequent use of irony and hyperbole). Peter Gay described Weimar culture as a "dance on the edge of a volcano." If so, then it was essays like these that provided the music. -- Back cover.

This reissue of Barth's A Shorter Commentary on Romans links to the renewed interest today in a 'theological' interpretation of Scripture. In response to the modern preoccupation with what lies behind the text (the author's context), and to a postmodern preoccupation with what lies in front of the text (the reader's context), both theologians and biblical scholars are asking the following questions: 'What is the relationship between the biblical text, interpreter and God?' 'Can the Bible be read both as an historical document and as a text that speaks to us today, and if so, how can it do so?'
