The Boundary Breaking God -- a Theolog Review


My review of Danielle Shroyer's meditation, The Boundary Breaking God, which explores the biblical story of the God who continually breaks down the boundaries of our expectations, is now at the Christian Century blog -- Theolog.  An unsigned version of this review can be found in the latest issue of the Century.
