It is a specialist monograph that will entice those with interest in academic theology, systematics, and twentieth- and twenty-first-century Christian thought, especially the post-Barthian historicist electionism and the post-Rahnerian immanent and economic trinitarian project conversations. Devoted readers of the works of Robert Jenson, scholars of pneumatology, third-article theology, or pentecostal\/renewal movements, practitioners of liberation theology, and supporters of ecumenical theology will all be particularly gripped by the analysis developed in this work. As a text, the Freedom of God could find a home in graduate seminars, seminary classrooms, and in classes for advanced undergraduates for those studying Jenson as a way into systematic theology and contemporary Christian thought or in any thematic\/doctrinal courses on the Holy Spirit or the Trinity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHenry’s book provides not only a masterful analysis of Jenson's treatment of the Holy Spirit, but a theological and ethical foundation for global dialog across religious traditions and cultures. The implications of Henry's work for fruitful ecumenical and intercultural discussion are profound and exciting. -- Roberto Goizueta, Professor of Theology, Boston College\u003cbr\u003eThis is a welcome addition to the growing number of scholarly engagements with of one of America’s most original and creative theologians, Robert W. Jenson. In the first full-length study of Jenson’s pneumatology, Henry masterfully unpacks Jenson’s view of the Spirit as “freedom in God’s own life” and makes a compelling case for its capacity to mediate between traditional interpretations of the Spirit’s procession and more contemporary emphases on the Spirit’s economic activity of mission and liberation. -- Cheryl M. Peterson, Trinity Lutheran Seminary\u003cbr\u003eIn this brilliantly conceived and elegantly written book, Daryn Henry celebrates, defends, critiques, and enriches Robert Jenson's central characterization of the Spirit as the freedom of both God and creation. Henry succeeds not only in his stated objective of demonstrating the generative power of Jenson's pneumatology for modern theological discourse, but also in establishing his own credentials as a creative and methodologically sophisticated theological voice. -- Khaled Anatolios, University of Notre Dame\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments Preface Introduction Part I: The Work of the Spirit Chapter 1: The Spirit and the People of God Chapter 2: Some Gifts of the Spirit Part II: The Person of the Spirit Chapter 3: The Identification of the Spirit Chapter 4: The Spirit in the Divine Life Part III: The Spirit as Freedom Chapter 5: The Horizon of Classical Pneumatology Chapter 6: The Horizon of Modern Trinitarian Theology Chapter 7: The Horizon of Liberation Theology Conclusion","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51043424076119,"sku":"9781978700390","price":93.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781978700390.jpg?v=1750958175","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-freedom-of-god-a-study-in-the-pneumatology-of-robert-jenson-9781978700390","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
