The good news is that in the face of Jesus Christ we see the very face of God, the One who has decided to be with us and for us in spite of our sin.

Kevin J. Vanhoozer (* 1957) ist ein US-amerikanischer reformierter Theologe und Professor für Systematische Theologie an der Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Er wurde vor allem durch seine theologische Hermeneutik und das Konzept des „Theo-Dramas“ bekannt, das christliche Lehre als handlungsorientierte Lebenspraxis auf der Grundlage biblischer Sprechakte versteht. Für Bibelleser bietet sein Werk eine philosophisch fundierte Verteidigung der biblischen Textbedeutung und Autorität gegenüber postmodernem Relativismus.
