Old Words for a New World

The book explores the contrast between the current realities faced by the church and the transformative future that God has in store for humanity. Brueggemann emphasizes the potential of God's words to inspire and initiate change, urging readers to embrace a vision of a new world that begins in the present and extends into an eschatological future. Through this dynamic interplay, the author seeks to empower individuals and communities to live out their faith actively and meaningfully.
