Gathered on the Road to Zion

“Daniel Hill’s work exemplifies the dialogical possibilities of biblically committed, yet teachable, evangelical theology. The dialogue he pursues in this book shines a helpful spotlight on the connection between our nurture in the church and the nature of our humanity.”


—Daniel J. Treier, Knoedler Professor of Theology, Wheaton College





“Daniel Hill interacts with theological giants—John Zizioulas, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Stanley Hauerwas—in building his ecclesio-anthropology. His thesis is that ecclesiology—that is, the nature, mission, practices, and telos of the church—provides necessary insight into the study of human imagination, vocation, formation, and flourishing. Thus ecclesio-anthropology provides enriching insight into the nature of human action, the goodness of human embodiment, and the teleological nature of human creatures.”


—Gerry Breshears, Professor of Theology, Western Seminary, Portland, Oregon
