Inward Road: And the Way Back

Dorothee Sölle

Religion & Spirituality

Darton,Longman & Todd Ltd.

Growing out of a series of public lectures presented to a large audience of non-theologians, this book is one of the most attractive introductions to theology to appear in recent years.Perhaps, as the author herself indicates, “introduction” is not the best word to describe the book. For above all, the book is an invitation to share Dorothee Sölle’s enthusiasm for theology, and her delight in the beauty and the power of religious and theological language and the themes it expresses.Thinking about God covers all of the major areas of modern theology. After discussing the nature of systematic theology and comparing orthodox, liberal, and radical approaches, it looks at the use of the Bible in theology. Then follow chapters on creation, sin, feminist liberation theology, the understanding of grace, black theology, Jesus, cross and resurrection, the kingdom of God and the church, the theology of peace, the end of theism, and the question of God.A bibliography is provided at the end of each chapter, and Dorothee Sölle, who is familiar with theology on both sides of the Atlantic, has herself revised the entries for the English-language edition.Dorothee Sölle has taught philosophy, literature, and theology at several German universities, and has been on the faculty of Union Theological Seminary, New York.

Dorothee Soelle enjoyed a solidly-established reputation as theologian in both Europe and the United States. Works such as 'Christ, the Representative', 'Political Theology', and 'Suffering' have shown her to be a writer who combined scholarship with clarity of expression, and made theology come alive through her human warmth and compassion. 'Revolutionary Patience', however, reveals yet another facet of Soelle as both person and writer. With disarming simplicity, the prayer-poems in this book reflect the author's own deep Christianity as she attempts to make sense, in the light of the Gospel, of a world brutally scarred by oppression, filled with cries of the hungry and the hunted. These poems are also prayers, of a kind rarely heard in our churches, but disturbingly evocative of Amos, Isaiah, and Jesus. These pages offer stones, not bread, for any who might open them looking for spiritual comfort or consolation. Yet, for those with ears to hear, 'Revolutionary Patience' will also be a treasured experience as Dorothee Soelle's lines sing and sting their way into the reader's mind and heart.
