Power, Service, Humility

Few have approached this topic with the exegetical insight and theological depth that Reinhard Feldmeier manifests in this volume. Writing with clarity and passion, he provides readers with an ethic that reveals the paradoxical relationship between power, service, and humility in the New Testament.

~Frank J. Matera, Professor Emeritus, The Catholic University of America

...Feldmeier’s Power, Service, Humility will challenge New Testament scholars, pastors, and lay leaders to reconfigure their ideas of power in accordance with the biblical text, with the intended goal of promoting relationships of mutual enhancement rather than diabolical tyranny.

~David E. Briones, Reformation Bible College, Review of Biblical Literature

This book offers many generative thoughts...[ Power, Service, Humility] would be well suited to a collegiate or graduate level scriptural study of power or biblical ethics.

~Nelson M. E. B. Reveley, Univeristy of Virginia, Religious Studies Review

...in bringing together the themes of power, service and humility in a mutually enriching way, Feldmeier has made a very helpful contribution to a scripturally-informed Christian ethics.
