Toward A Dialogical Community: A Post-Shoah Christian Theology is a collection of thoughtful and thought-provoking essays by James F. Moore (Professor of Theology, Valparaiso University). These writings offer new approaches to sacred texts, explore different visions for Jewish-Christian relations, and offer insight into globe-spanning issues. From "The Israel-Shoah Link" to "Recovering the European Perspective on Post-Holocaust Theology" to "Christianity after the Holocaust and in the Twenty-First Century" and more, these essays deal with complex theological questions and issues in a meticulous, and well-reasoned manner, supplemented with excerpts and contemplations concerning the sacred texts themselves. A welcome and recommended addition to Judeo-Christian theology shelves.
