Review # 1 was written on 2012-03-19 00:00:00 Robert Randolph Conventional wisdom has it that pneumatology withered away in the West until its recent revival over the past few decades. Dreyer's most interesting finding is that this is true in the formal writings of systematic theologians, but that the Spirit was present in the preaching and devotional writings of medieval Christians in the West. I focused on the chapter on Hildegard for a school presentation I was doing, but the introduction and conclusion were interesting and I'd like to come back and read the chapters on the other medieval writers she highlights.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-01-14 00:00:00 Frank Losasso This is an excellent book for anyone who wants to understand justice from an academic Christian perspective.
