description: In a revision of her doctoral dissertation for Princeton Theological Seminary, Bender (theology and philosophy, U of Sioux Falls, US) seeks to explicate Barth's (1886-1968) ecclesiology by drawing attention to the Christological logic that governs its inner shape, structure, and content. Her goal is to trace the past and present missteps in interpreting his ecclesiology back to a failure either to place his doctrine of the church within his larger dogmatic framework, or to understand its implicitly ethical nature. She offers a chronological narrative of the development and representation of the inner logic of his doctrine of the church from its earliest versions to its final formulations.
