William Stringfellow

Stringfellow is one of my favorite theologians.  I was blessed to be in class with Bill Wylie-Kellerman teaching and Bishop McGee in attendance who taught me about William Stringfellow.

I am currently reading An Alien in a Strange Land: Theology in the Life of William Stringfellow by Anthony Dancer.  I am at the beginning but so far think the author is right on!  (A nice review of this book can be found here: http://commonwealmagazine.org/inconvenient-theology)

There is some great stuff on the web about Stringfellow:

If I were to start at the beginning, the two books I would get are...

A Keeper of the Word: Selected Writings of William Stringfellow by Bill Wylie-Kellerman

and
Instead of Death by William Stringfellow


and then I would continue to read Stringfellow's books!
