The triune God of justice has a mission in the world, which we are called to participate and partner in. The awesome nature of that mission and vision inspires and animates this volume, Now to God Who Is Able. An international array of Christian pastors, scholar activists, parachurch ministry leaders, and community organizers reflect critically on the theological, biblical, contextual, and practical dimensions of what it means to bear witness of the gospel orientated and anchored in God's justice. Using a trinitarian framework within the prophetic call to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with God, this book speaks to the modern challenges and opportunities of the pastoral vocation, ecclesiology, hermeneutics, homiletics, ecumenism, theological education, and missional theology. Each essay and this book honor the more than four decades of ministry of Mark Labberton, who retired as president of Fuller Theological Seminary in 2023.

Reviews for Now to God Who Is Able

"""From a richly diverse group of authors--not for the sake of performance but because this is how the transformative work of God always plays out--this volume seeks to carry forward the vast impact of Mark Labberton. Through the exegesis of the Scriptures, revelation of history, and thoughtful construction of theology, readers will hear their deepest questions articulated and be challenged and inspired to become part of the answers God is bringing about."" --Amy Peeler, professor of New Testament, Wheaton College ""Now to God Who Is Able is not only a fitting tribute to an extraordinary servant of the gospel, Mark Labberton, but also a most fitting tribute to our triune God who gives himself to us in that same gospel. Neal Presa and Anne Zaki deserve our thanks for assembling an exceptional collection of essays written by Mark's friends and colleagues, organized in both trinitarian and prophetic terms, calling us to follow Mark's example, as he follows the example of Christ. Highly recommended!"" --Todd Wilson, co-founder and president, Center for Pastor Theologians"
