Hope is not about uncertain possibility. There is a robust sense of hope: something has happened, and it has happened in a certain way. This volume addresses the question: What is the way of Christian hope? What does it mean to act with hope? And in particular, what does it mean to act, to live, with hope in our churches and in society today?

Industry Reviews

“Five decades ago, the ‘theology of hope’ was featured as the ‘new frontier’ in theology. This multiauthored book, Hope Today, is a welcome assurance that theological focus on Christian hope is not a passing fad. Each of the essays makes a distinctive contribution to the ethical implications of the living hope given the church by the gospel of Christ. I do not know of any book that deals in depth with such a wide swath of the ethics of hope for today.”
—Carl E. Braaten, Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago, emeritus

“Paul encourages Christians to cling to the hope we have in Christ, for ‘hope does not disappoint’ (Rom 5:5). But in a world ever afflicted by evil and injustice, hope remains elusive and hard won. These outstanding essays consider different theological dimensions of hope, showing how hope informs our understanding of Christian living, ecumenism, the sacraments, and the church’s engagement with the world. At once instructive and inspiring, this collection is a must-read for Christians pining for hope in these troubled times.”
—R. David Nelson, Baylor University
