Die Theologie und das Hören

"What does it mean to say that somebody hears the word of God? What does it mean in a theological sense to be listening? Ulrich Lincoln puts this question to some of the leading theological authors of the 20th century, such as Karl Rahner, Rudolf Bultmann and Karl Barth. The theological interpretations are supplemented by philosophical perspectives from Paul Ricœur and Søren Kierkegaard. In the end it is the phenomena of resonance and witness which form a focus for the theological as well as philosophical interpretation of listening which is further developed into a phenomenology of Christian attentiveness."--From publisher's website.
