Produktbeschreibung
James Resseguie draws from studies in narrative criticism and the New Testament to bring our attention to the spiritual significance of the physical landscapes, social relationships, and local economy in Luke's Gospel. Gleaning from this rich perspective, Resseguie explores Luke's illustrations of spiritual formation and development. Students, preachers, spiritual directors, and readers interested in spirituality from a biblical perspective will gain insight from the role that stories such as the road to Emmaus, a widow's offering, the tax collector's feast, and the demoniac's change of clothes play in the Lukan narrative. "James Resseguie has given us a stirring, sensitive, and compelling reading of Luke's Gospel. . . . Here is an earthly spirituality whose power is drawn from its ability to discern images of the formative work of divine encounter in the desert and on the lake, at table and in prayer, in one's finances and in one's clothing."--Joel B. Green, provost, dean of the School of Theology, and professor of New Testament interpretation, Fuller Theological Seminary "Spiritual Landscapes is wonderfully written. Once I picked it up I could not put it down. Resseguie's literary analysis of ''landscapes' in Luke is an immensely important work, a mature theological reading that employs sophisticated methodological approaches. It is an engaging and artistic reading but also rigorous and disciplined. Exploring topographic, social, and economic landscapes as a way to map out the spirituality of Luke represents a fresh and lively approach to the biblical text. In sum, Resseguie's work is a splendid treatment of the Gospel of Luke."--Louis Stulman, professor of religion, University of Findlay
