A Pastoral Proposal for an Evangelical Theology of Freedom - Albert J.D. Walsh

In concluding the series of lectures given while he made his first and only visit to the U.S., Dr. Karl Barth expressed his hope to see a theology of freedom for humanity originating from the U.S. As a respectful response to the expressed hope of Karl Barth, Albert Walsh presents this essay as a pastoral proposal on the subject of freedom from the point of view of the Judeo-Christian tradition. Walsh presents both biblical and theological foundations for a theology of freedom, which he calls «graced-freedom,» contending that this is that transcendent freedom that God alone confers and sustains as a freedom for humanity.
