Reviews
Henry's book provides not only a masterful analysis of Jenson's treatment of the Holy Spirit, but a theological and ethical foundation for global dialog across religious traditions and cultures. The implications of Henry's work for fruitful ecumenical and intercultural discussion are profound and exciting. -- Roberto Goizueta, Professor of Theology, Boston College
This is a welcome addition to the growing number of scholarly engagements with of one of America's most original and creative theologians, Robert W. Jenson. In the first full-length study of Jenson's pneumatology, Henry masterfully unpacks Jenson's view of the Spirit as "freedom in God's own life" and makes a compelling case for its capacity to mediate between traditional interpretations of the Spirit's procession and more contemporary emphases on the Spirit's economic activity of mission and liberation. -- Cheryl M. Peterson, Trinity Lutheran Seminary
In this brilliantly conceived and elegantly written book, Daryn Henry celebrates, defends, critiques, and enriches Robert Jenson's central characterization of the Spirit as the freedom of both God and creation. Henry succeeds not only in his stated objective of demonstrating the generative power of Jenson's pneumatology for modern theological discourse, but also in establishing his own credentials as a creative and methodologically sophisticated theological voice. -- Khaled Anatolios, University of Notre Dame
