DESCRIPTION:
Five Stars great condition, an excellent book. be nice if more of karl barth's work was made more available.. A Window into Communion with God Rev. John D. White We know Barth for his massive Church Dogmatics; deep, penetrating, difficult, beautiful, massive, circular in argument, and life-changing. Here we see the spiritual side of Barth; a side not often observed beyond the usual personnas. We are familiar with Barth the theological warrior, writer, dogmatic theologian, family man, university professor, but this book gi. "Prayer is not just another word" according to James Lindsay. I have just begun to read the books of Karl Barth and I am enjoying them immensely.They are deep in thought but easy to read especially for the layman.Reading the books of Barth has given me a better understanding Christian religion and also our relationship with God through Jesus Christ.This book is highly recommended as are other books by Barth.
. One of the greatest theologians and preachers of the twentieth century, he is best known for his monumental systematic theology, Church Dogmatics. Karl Barth (1886-1968) was Professor of Theology at the University of Basel, Switzerland
This anniversary edition of Karl Barth's lectures on the Lord's Prayer, along with supplementary essays by three Barth scholars, introduces us to what he had to say about this important Christian practice. Prayer is one of the central activities of Christian life. For Barth, the ultimate aim of all theology is worship, and here he mines the theological and spiritual wisdom of Luther, Calvin, and the Heidelberg Catechism, urging us to participate in the work of God through prayer.
