As a theological biography of Professor Walter J. Hollenweger, this book surveys his extensive interests, varied methods and wide-ranging reflection. But Price also incorporates an enquiry into the nature and function of western academic theology relating to Christian practice today. Hollenweger's research into pentecostalism, ecumenism and intercultural theology is here brought together in a synthetic overview. Issues such as the unity and diversity of the Bible and its interpretations, the particular and universal dimensions of worldwide Christianity, and relations between Christians and between Christians and others are all exploited in order to stimulates fresh thinking on the mission of the churches.
