Book Description

September 1999
An in-depth analysis of the life and legacy of this century's leading Mennonite theologian.

In the words of Stanley Hauerwas, John Howard Yoder (1927-1997) "is probably the major theologian/ethicist of this half-century in America." Written by scholars from within and outside of Yoder's own Mennonite community, these essays engage the most significant aspects of Yoder's thought--from his landmark analysis of the politics of Jesus to his defense of Christian pacifism. A fitting tribute to Yoder's work, this book will be useful to readers from a wide range of disciplines.

First Sentence:
Stanley Hauerwas is right that if there was anything that could make John Yoder "testy" it was to be "pigeonholed" as a "Mennonite thinker." Read the first page
