Читать книгу Christian Archy - David Alan Black - Страница 6

In everything I write I discover how much I owe to my teachers. I must single out here the lecturers at Basel under whom I had the privilege of sitting: Bo Reicke, Markus Barth, Jan Milic Lockman, Martin Anton Schmidt, and Bernhard Wyss. Most important of all I should mention a mentor who, via his publications, has been my discussion partner for several months now. No one has caused me greater joy in my studies of the New Testament than Jacques Ellul, and it is to his memory that this book is dedicated. This volume is a natural outgrowth of its predecessor, The Jesus Paradigm, also published by Energion Publications. I want to say thank you to its owner, Henry Neufeld, who has worked closely with me on formatting and design to produce books that are not only visually pleasant but that deal with issues that confront today’s increasingly complex and broken world. Finally, I want to thank my fellow pilgrims all over the world — from Bucharest to Beijing — who have been an anvil on which I have forged my ideas. The kingdom is truly universal in scope, and I am grateful to have witnessed its expressions among many different nations of the world.
