The Redemption of God - Paperback
by Carter Heyward (Author), Janet L. Surrey (Foreword by)
Attempts to demonstrate the radical relationality and interdependence of all human beings and God. Analyzing the inadequacies in traditional Christian treatments of moral evil and moral good, the author attempts to construct new theological foundations for soteriology and Christology.
The Rev. Dr. Carter Heyward is Professor Emerita of Theology at the Episcopal Divinity School, in Cambridge, MA, where she was on the faculty for thirty years. Her doctoral dissertation at Union Theological Seminary in New York City, The Redemption of God: A Theology of Mutual Relation was written in 1979 and first published in 1982. In it, Dr. Heyward lays the foundation for all of her theological work. In 2005, Dr. Heyward retired to the mountains of North Carolina, where she lives in an intentional community, participates in a small ecumenical worshipping community, fiddles in a women's old time string band, and is involved with a therapeutic horseback riding program which she founded in 2000. As a feminist liberation theologian and a leading voice among lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender Christians, Dr. Heyward continues to write and speak nationally and globally. Her most recent books include God in the Balance: Christian Spirituality in Times of Terror (Pilgrim, 2002), Flying Changes: Horses as Spiritual Teachers (Pilgrim, 2005), and the forthcoming Keep Your Courage: A Radical Christian Feminist Speaks -- Occasional Pieces, 1998-2009 (SCM, 2010).
