"""The historical essays from over fifty contributors in these volumes reflect diverse and richly textured discussions concerning Christian renewal in the mid-twentieth century. Especially noteworthy are the inclusion of critical and engaging response essays, which point to a developing Mennonite theology on the way, underline the importance of dialogue across differences, and highlight the necessity for raising new questions."" --Karl Koop, Canadian Mennonite University ""We are indebted to Roberts for her invaluable (and considerable!) labor exhuming, contextualizing, re-presenting, and thus preserving the distinctively Anabaptist Concern pamphlet series, published during the height of the Cold War. These volumes provide snapshots of a then-rising generation of North American Mennonite thinkers 'workshopping' important theological, ethical, and ecclesial issues amidst their fraught social and historical moment. An enlightening resource for all of us attempting similar discernment of our own calamitous epoch."" --Ched Myers, author of Who Will Roll Away the Stone? Discipleship Queries for First World Christians"
