The liberation theology of Juan Luis Segundo, S.J., is examined in light of Segundo's own evangelical commitment to connect 'faith' and 'works.' This book argues that the principal thesis of Segundo's theology is that faith and faith works (defined as either 'love' or 'ideology') need to be distinguished, but not separated; a Pauline connection that has been severely overlooked in contemporary theology.
Hoy extends Segundo's message to the Catholic traditions emanating from the Reformation as well, perhaps exceeding what even Segundo himself could have anticipated. In this respect Hoy's achievement is in my judgment unsurpassed, certainly among worksin English. It appears as a highly recommended title on the bibliographies in my seminars, both here and abroad. -- Robert W.
