In conversation with Karl Barth and Scripture, Paul Louis Metzger outlines a fallibilist approach to theology and Christian life characterized by humble faith, earnest hope, and resilient love. These dispositions are, in turn, founded on the Reformed conviction that God’s self-revelation in Jesus Christ is sufficient, albeit not exhaustive, and therefore should lead not “to arrogance or ambivalence, but to awe and wonder.” Taking Barth’s view that Christ himself is the unity of the churches, Metzger offers some positive ecumenical connections for our time. |
