Preliminary Material / Charles C. Helmer IV -- Chapter 1 Scripture: An Auscultation of Hearing / Charles C. Helmer IV -- Chapter 2 Karl Barth and the Promise of God's Hearing / Charles C. Helmer IV -- Chapter 3 Creation: A Theological Grammar / Charles C. Helmer IV -- Chapter 4 Anthropology: Being Heard into Hearing Beings / Charles C. Helmer IV -- Chapter 5 Christology: The Triumph of the Always-Heard Word / Charles C. Helmer IV -- Conclusion: "O That I Had One to Hear Me!" / Charles C. Helmer IV.
In The LORD Who Listens , Charles C. Helmer IV draws on Holy Scripture and the theology of Karl Barth to offer a theological intepretation of God's hearing. Prioritizing this neglected biblical theme, Helmer develops a theological grammar for speaking of God's hearing that maintains a strong creator-creature distinction and then proceeds to demonstrate the profound implications God's hearing has for the doctrines of anthropology, Christology and, thus, for understandings of the gospel. In contrast to passibilist-liberationist strategies, God's hearing is argued to furnish existentially and theologically superior resources for those who cry out to be heard by God.
