Many of our current, lasting controversies in American Christianity are due, in part, to the willingness of liberals to champion reason and experience while leaving Scripture and tradition to conservatives, and vice versa.

Many of our current, lasting controversies in American Christianity are due, in part, to the willingness of liberals to champion reason and experience while leaving Scripture and tradition to conservatives, and vice versa. The liberal biblical theological voice, once quite strong, has fallen silent. Grounded in a solid knowledge of biblical study, Partnership in the Gospel presents a series of exercises, or angles of perspective, intended to support the rigorous consideration of biblical theological perspective that preachers, teachers, and lay leaders need. This work draws from a range of scholarly, theological, and everyday voices, and with kindred works of poetry, art, music, and literature, to explore the Bible's unifying themes through ""partnerships"" of perspective. Each chapter offers an exercise that integrates Scripture, experience, tradition, and reason--the four sides of John Wesley's ""Quadrilateral""--as the means by which to engage with the gospel and appreciate a liberal biblical theology.
Robert Allan Hill teaches in the areas of Biblical Studies and Practical Theology. Since 1981 he has taught in several schools including McGill University, Syracuse University, Lemoyne College, Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School, Northeastern Seminary, United Seminary, and various church settings. His passionate interest lies at the intersection of Scripture and life, especially in the work of preaching. Hence his research has combined publications related to the Gospel of John and Gnosticism, on the one hand, and preaching in ministry, on the other. For example, An Examination and Critique of the Understanding of the Relationship between Apocalypticism and Gnosticism in Johannine Studies appeared in 1997, while Snow Day: Reflections on the Practice of Ministry in the Northeast was published in 2000. Most of his writing, however, has been devoted to weekly sermons, over thirty years, in seven pulpits, some of which are collected, taped, and published. Hill has taught Greek, New Testament, Preaching, The Practice of Ministry, Church Administration, and other courses. His perspective on pastoral theology focuses on the special needs of the church in the northeastern USA in the twenty-first century. Hill is currently Dean of Marsh Chapel and Professor of New Testament and Pastoral Theology at Boston University.
