Sarah Coakley is one of the most exciting and creative figures in contemporary theology. Her far-reaching systematic vision of the Christian faith has integrated insights from systematic theology, gender studies, sociology, patristics, analytic phiIosophy of religion, and evolutionary biology. This integrated vision coheres around the mystical and contemplative core of Christian experience. In her challenging revisionary work on themes such as gender, sacrifice, desire, and the doctrine of the Trinity, Coakley reconnects theological reflection with its contemplative roots and pushes toward a new approach to systematic theological reflection. In Sarah Coakley and the Future of Systematic Theology, scholars explore Coakley's multifaceted contribution to contemporary theology and consider the ways through which her work sets a new standard for systematic reflection on the Christian faith. This volume brings together, around Coakley's work, a gathering of established and emerging scholars and asks critical questions of Coakley's work as we await three further volumes of her systematic theology.
Janice McRandal is lecturer in systematic theology at Trinity College Queensland. She is the author of Christian Doctrine and the Grammar of Difference: A Contribution to Feminist Systematic Theology (Fortress Press, 2015).
