Christ, Power and Mammon

Karl Barth and John Howard Yoder in Dialogue

By: Scott Thomas Prather

This book examines the role of the New Testament concept of the 'principalities and powers' in the thought of Karl Barth and John Howard Yoder, showing how this biblical concept of power is central to the fundamental theological convictions of each thinker. Prather offers a scholarly account of the underexplored theological and ethical import of a major biblical theme and the book addresses questions and concerns from a wide range of academic and lay theological interest. He brings Barth and Yoder into dialogue here and examines the three crucial areas: the 'confessional' distinction of church and world; the demonization of political power; and the intrinsic relation between the political and economic powers. While other theologians have rightly identified a 'christocentric' connection between the thought of Barth and Yoder, no attempt has been made to bring them together through the sustained analysis of a single doctrinal or ethical issue - this book does just that.

Let Suffering Speak

Cornel West and the Crisis of Contemporary Ethics

By: Scott Thomas Prather

Over a lifetime of public engagement in academia and activism, Cornel West has consistently emphasized and uniquely embodied Theodor Adorno's dictum that “the condition of truth is to allow suffering to speak.” By critically reading West from the vantage of a constructive Christian theology of (the) power(s), Prather takes up West's insistence that serious moral inquiry begins with attention to moments of crisis and attempts to re-envision the world through the lens of the cross. This book demonstrates the theological value of West's philosophical practice and political commitments through an analysis of several interrelated crises besetting contemporary religious and moral life – crises of global capital, of racial identity, of neoliberal democracy, of (post)liberal religion, and of American imperialism. Along the way, Prather draws on and highlights the overlap of West's witness with fresh theological insights from Marxist, womanist, and anti-colonial theory.
