Summary: A great collection
Comment: This collection of essays really gives some insight into Hauerwas' thought. Always provocative, Hauerwas expands on themes that he has touched on before, such as how Capitalism and the privatization of American life affect issues such as homosexuality (he deals with privatization and its affects on the Abortion debate in his essay ABORTION, THEOLOGICALLY UNDERSTOOD available in the Hauerwas Reader). Not content to rest on his laurels, Hauerwas dispenses irritation to anyone who us unwilling to think through the problems confronting the Church and society today, revealing that what we thought were the problems are merely symptoms and the solutions are both much more complicated than we can grasp and as simple as trusting in Jesus Christ.

Summary: Diverse Application of Hauerwas' thought
Comment: This collection of essays offers a great introduction to the thought of Stanley Hauerwas. The essays cover a variety of issues facing the Church today some of which are recognized by the wider Christian community and others that are not. Even those that are (i.e. the Church's response to homosexuality) Hauerwas offers a unique perspective that challenges the zealots in all camps. On the whole Hauerwas confronts the presupositious held by those of us in the West (in general) and in America (in particular) with typical ferocity and intellectual integrity.
