A solid, constructive theological work, this book presents a distinctive Trinitarian, participatory approach toward reading Scripture as the church. Billings's argument for a theological hermeneutic is rooted in a historic vision of the practice of scriptural interpretation even as it engages a wide range of contemporary issues.
