This continues to be a rigorously engaging examination of Christ's teachings, their social and political implications, and the academic/theological approach to each as it stood in the late 20th century.
About halfway through the book, which was recommended to me by Alvin Plantinga and Stanley Hauerwas before they retired, I became aware of Yoder's misdeeds and their relation to his work here, which colors things.
