As we long for life beyond the pandemic, Eleazar Fernandez and a select group of colleagues make a much-needed, fourfold contribution. This text informs with interdisciplinary perspectives; it challenges with fresh thinking outside the box; it inspires with hope-filled insights; and it shows the way forward to envision and work toward an alternative, life-giving future. --Daniel S. Schipani, Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary, emeritus The COVID-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc in the lives of billions of people throughout the entire world. Within a short period of time, Eleazer Fernandez has gathered an amazing, global group of scholars across theological disciplines and practical ministries to reflect on the pandemic. The result is an incredibly valuable resource to help people of faith grapple with issues of theology and ministry in and beyond our pandemic world. --Jeffrey Kuan, Claremont School of Theology An anthology that addresses itself to a world torn by COVID-19 and to a world yet to emerge from COVID-19. Theodicy, theological anthropology, Christian history, biblical interpretation, social ethics, pastoral care, spirituality, missiology, ecclesiology, and worship are each addressed with the pandemic in mind. The volume begins with realistic recognition of a dire global situation, and it concludes with hope voiced for the continued struggle for a just, green, and peaceful world--a world where 'hope and history rhyme.' --Joseph Bush, Wesley Theological Seminary
