“There is much to commend in Rosario Rodríguez’s latest work. This book is highly recommended for those interested in theological methods in light of our changing, pluralistic context and should be required reading for students in theology. It is a gift to them as well as to more advanced scholars.” – Journal of Hispanic/Latino Theology 

“This is a challenging and daring book. It dares ask two axial questions that organize and guide the author’s reflections: What happens to doctrinal language when we accept theological diversity as normative? And what happens when we stop viewing theological pluralism as a problem to be solved (Babel) and embrace it as a gift of the Spirit (Pentecost)? Rubén Rosario's tour de force is insightful and brilliantly argued. I recommend this volume without hesitation.”

-Orlando O. Espin, University Professor of Theology and Religious Studies, University of San Diego.

“Attentive to tradition and sensitive to recent developments, Dogmatics after Babel is a provocative and wide-ranging contribution to conversations about how to speak about God with truth and humility in a cultural situation that seems to make such speech impossible.”

–Matthew Lundberg, Professor of Religion, Calvin College.

“In the cacophony of a theological Babel, Rosario Rodríguez provides us with an inclusive pneumatological path forward - one which embraces our theological diversity. Skillfully moving beyond normative Eurocentric revelational and anthropological theological approaches, he leads toward a liberative spirituality capable of preserving human dignity and emancipating the oppressed. A must read for those seeking harmony.”

–Miguel A. De La Torre, Iliff School of Theology, Professor of Social Ethics & Latinx Studies

“In this book, Rubén Rosario Rodríguez develops an elegant and compelling account of the challenges facing contemporary theology and outlines a constructive way in which these challenges can be met. In doing so, he threads the needle between a postliberal concern for the self-revelation of God given in Scripture and mediated through the Christian tradition, and a postcolonial concern for the contextual and power-laden nature of all speech about God as well as the need for theology to attend to nonwestern, nonChristian, and marginalized voices.”

–Luke Bretherton, Professor of Theological Ethics and Senior Fellow at the Kenan Institute for Ethics, Duke University.

“Rodríguez addresses head-on the question of how we may have meaningful faith while at the same time honoring and engaging the plurality of religious convictions that surrounds us.  After surveying an impressive range of thinkers, schools of thought, and resources, he suggests that attending to the work of the Spirit gives us ways of making personal connections to what we believe while avoiding what he identifies as “theological totalitarianism.”  Rodríguez’s book will be of great benefit to anyone who wants better to understand the state of the question:  How might we speak about God from out of our own particular traditions and experiences while at the same time recognizing that God lives and acts beyond what we know, including in the histories and experiences of others?”
