Theology, Christian doctrine, Barth

Very forceful, very provocative. Unfortunately, it's quite vague in some places, but I look forward to getting into the full Church Dogmatics to see how Barth clears those spots up. I'm still not sure I see the foundations of his project very clearly, but the conclusions are always compelling and frequently very profound. Obviously a must-read. ( )
