In tribute to Robert Benne s ongoing influence in church and society for the sake of the gospel, fourteen of his friends and colleaguesworldrenowned scholars themselveshave produced A Report from the Front Lines, in which they consider the role of theology in the public arena at this turn of the twenty-first century. The constant theme weaving through the volume is Benne s own conviction that Christians can and must engage in the public square with positions forged out of their religious commitments, using arguments whose presuppositions allow room for special revelation, but whose resultant logic is translated into a shared universal rationality. / Contributors: Michael D.
