This volume offers a fascinating glimpse into Barths interpretation of Scripture during a time of great historical significance.Renowned preacher William H. Willimon provides expert commentary on the theological and homiletical substance of each selection and points to the many ways in which Barths early preaching can enrich the work of preachers today.
