Karl Barth's Emergency Homiletic, 1932-1933: A Summons to Prophetic Witness at the Dawn of the Third Reich

[...]Barth offers a robust homiletic in which theological existence is spiritual resistance to ultimate ideological claims by offering a historical, contextual, and dialectical theology that bridges "heaven and earth," "God and human beings," "God and the community," as well as "the preacher and community" (234). [...]by offering a historical and theological analysis of Barth's preaching classroom in Bonn, Hancock offers an important contribution both to the fields of practical theology in its homiletical theories and to ethics, systematics, and historical theologies in their retrieval of Barth's theology as witness in proclamation, life, and service to the church.
