William Stringfellow: Essential Writings

Description

A radical lay theologian William Stringfellow (1928-1985) leveled a prophetic critique against a range of American institutions: the Church and seminaries, economic structures and the idolatries of the modern war-making state. “My concern,” he wrote, “is to understand America biblically,”—in contrast to the more common tendency, to understand the Bible “Americanly.”
