The nature of reading-a movement of mind, body, and spirit-has continued to change for millennia. Churches and universities would die without reading, therefore, the quality and quantity of reading, books, and libraries remains a current source of concern, or perhaps crisis, in both Christianity and theological education.Reading for Faith and Learning brings together twenty leading, contemporary voices to discuss the significance of reading as a religious and scholarly practice. From depictions of reading in the Hebrew Bible, to the role of reading in the Reformation and American life, to modern day machine-reading of theological books in online libraries, this volume explores different facets of reading and its enduring and evolving importance for understanding and relating to God and our world.
