Reviews
Proclaiming the Gospel, Engaging the World illustrates the remarkable breadth and depth of Melbourne School of Theology's contributions to biblical understanding and cross-cultural mission. The range of topics considered here demonstrates the extent of MST's scholarly impact on theology (particularly within the Australian College of Theology) and the church. --James Dalziel, Dean, Australian College of Theology Due to the efforts of editors Michael Brautigam, Peter Riddell, and Justin Tan, and the Melbourne School of Theology community, we have in this volume an eclectic and fascinating collection of essays. If the role of a theological educational institution is to stand between the world and theology, as the title Proclaiming the Gospel, Engaging the World affirms, the various authors have done a wonderful job in providing some clues for the church to navigate its way through the complex world in which we find ourselves. --Ian Hussey, Lecturer and Director of Postgraduate Studies, Malyon Theological College
