Witness to His Generation: Selected Writings of John Strietelmeier

By Lutheran-Roman Catholic Commission on Unity

Dr. Strietelmeier used his God-given mental acuity to address issues of substance with wisdom and humor, and at the same time, managed a very demanding set of administrative responsibilities at Valparaiso University. An acute observer of what was taking place in the world around him, Dr. Stietelmeier was not timid in articulating his positions concerning what was taking place in higher education and in the society at large. This book presents some of his leading ideas, many published in The Cresset, and his biography. With Strietelmeier the reader will struggle for a way of thinking and living ¿gracefully¿ in a time of multiple revolutions, choosing lesser evils, searching for the will of God while navigating between the dominant cultural value of personal emancipation and the power of a freedom found in bonding with the Lord of the Church.
