Work Of Theology
$31.99In this book Stanley Hauerwas returns to the basics of doing theology. Revisiting some of his earliest philosophical and theological views to better understand and clarify what he has said before, Hauerwas explores how theological reflection can be understood as an exercise in practical reason.
Hauerwas includes chapters on a wide array of topics, including “How I Think I Learned to Think Theologically,” “How the Holy Spirit Works,” “How to Write a Theological Sentence,” and “How to Be Theologically Funny.” In a postscript he responds to Nicholas Healy’s recent book Hauerwas: A (Very) Critical Introduction.
“What we believe as Christians,” says Hauerwas, “is quite basic and even simple. But because it is so basic, we can lose any sense of the extraordinary nature of Christian beliefs and practices.” In discussing how to do theology, Hauerwas seeks to recover that “sense of the oddness of what we believe as Christians.”

Approaching The End
$27.99In this book Stanley Hauerwas explores the significance of eschatological reflection for helping the church negotiate the contemporary world.
In Part One, “Theological Matters,” Hauerwas directly addresses his understanding of the eschatological character of the Christian faith.
In Part Two, “Church and Politics,” he deals with the political reality of the church in light of the end, addressing such issues as the divided character of the church, the imperative of Christian unity, and the necessary practice of sacrifice. End, for Hauerwas, has a double meaning — both chronological end and end in the sense of “aim” or “goal.”
In Part Three, “Life and Death,” Hauerwas moves from theology and the church as a whole to focusing on how individual Christians should live in light of eschatology. What does an eschatological approach to life tell us about how to understand suffering, how to form habits of virtue, and how to die?

$32.99A compelling memoir, this acclaimed book tells the story of Stanley Hauerwas, once hailed by Time magazine as the “best theologian in America.” In Hannah’s Child Hauerwas gives a frank account of his own life interwoven with the development of his thought. With genuine humility Hauerwas describes his intellectual struggles with faith, how he has dealt with the complex reality of marriage to a mentally ill partner, and the gift of friendships that have influenced his character. Throughout the narrative shines Hauerwas’s conviction that the tale of his life is worth telling only because the greater Christian story has provided foundation and direction for his own.

After Christendom : How The Church Is To Behave If Freedom Justice, And A C
$24.99Liberal/conservative and modern/postmodern concepts define contemporary theological debate. Yet what if these categories are grounded in a set of assumptions about what it means to be the church in the world, presuming we must live as though God’s existence does not matter? What if our theological discussion distracts us from the fact that the church is no longer able to shape the desires and habits of Christians? Hauerwas wrestles with these and similar questions constructing a theological politics necessary for the church to be the church in the world. In so doing, he challenges liberal notions of justice and freedom.
