As an Anabaptist, John Howard Yoder is often depicted as Christ-centered in his theology but with a creation-deficient approach to culture. In this clearly reasoned study, Branson Parler argues that Yoder advocates a trinitarian theology of culture that upholds the continuity between God's work in creation and in redemption. For Yoder, Jesus' humanity makes him directly relevant to culture while Jesus' divinity connects him directly to creation. Yoder's writings, says Parler, affirm that Jesus restores and re-establishes the politics of creation.In Things Hold Together, Parler joins a growing number of writers from outside Anabaptist or Mennonite traditions who are finding resonance with Yoder, one of the leading theologians of the twentieth century."Interpreters who dismiss Yoder's call to discipleship find comfort in suggesting he lacked a doctrine of creation or in finding him to be at best a heterodox theologian. Parler takes the ground away from such critics. His book sets the bar for any future reception of Yoder's theology." –D. Stephen Long, author of Speaking of God: Theology, Truth and Language
