Seeking to liberate Anabaptist theology and identity from the constricting vision appropriated and reformulated by Yoder, these essays refuse the determinative categories of the past half-century provided by and carried forward by Harold Benders in his influential work, The Anabaptist Vision. While still grappling with the enduring impact of decades of trauma, this volume fosters a recontextualized conversation about Anabaptist theology and identity that is ecumenically engaged, philosophically astute, psychologically attuned, and resolutely vulnerable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe volume presents a Trinitarian and Christological framework that harmonizes the significance of Scripture, tradition, and the lived experience of the Christian community. Contributors explore a diverse range of issues, including Mennonite feminism, Anabaptist queer theology, and Mennonite theological methods, while critically interrogating the operations of power, violence, exclusion, and privilege in these changed contexts. Through self-critical constructive alternatives, these essays offer a means to articulate Anabaptist theology and identity in a manner that is both responsive to the challenges of our time and faithful to the core values of the Anabaptist tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 266g                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 139 x 214 x 16 (mm)                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780567692733                                                      \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094249795834,"sku":"9780567692733","price":20.81,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/e29131e07196188b78d206d9db99a60e.jpg?v=1626664815","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/recovering-from-the-anabaptist-vision-new-essays-in-anabaptist-identity-and-theological-method","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
