The PC(USA) Store - New Books from Walter Brueggemann


New from Walter Brueggemann!

Books for Study and Preaching


“That material aspect of faith is grounded in our conviction about creation: the world is God’s creation that God has called good.”
This newest book from Walter Brueggemann is his manifesto, bringing together the crucial concerns of his writings. It is a call to action for readers, asking them to consider the materiality of their faith through looking at the topics of food, money, the body, time, and place. With questions for discussion following the introduction and five chapters, this is an ideal six-week study for individuals, groups, and congregations.
PERFECT FOR
  • Group study and discussion, particularly after Lent
  • Personal reading and reflection
  • Church planning team additional reading
“There can be no hope until truth is told. Our temptation, of course, is to do the work of hope without the prior work of truth.”
—from Truth and Hope

In these fourteen essays, Walter Brueggemann uses Hebrew texts on inclusion, hope, truth-telling, stewardship, generosity, greed, fear, and more to speak to our present age of fake news, lies, and alternate realities. This book spotlights the theological constructions that emerge from pain-filled and dislocated spaces and explores theological strategies for survival and resistance as well as gestures of hospitality to the outsider whose defender is the divine stranger.
