Narrative Theology After Auschwitz: From Alienation To Ethics

Book Summary


Narrative Theology After Auschwitz addresses the pressing question of the failure of Christian ethics during the Holocaust. It's concern is to understand how and why so many Christians and Christian churches either cooperated with the Nazis or stood passively by while six million Jews were slaughtered. The goal is to uproot the propensity of Christians to equate "ethics" with "unquestioning obedience" to authority, and replace it with an Abrahamic "chutzpah" or audacity to question all authority, even God if necessary, in defense of the dignity of the stranger.
