H. Richard Niebuhr

I was not familiar with him. Seeing your post prompted me to look him up and found out that he was the the younger brother of Reinhold Niebuhr. Are there particular works you would like to see of his? Could you share what you like about them?

You never heard of Christ and Culture?  Required reading in cemetery.  He also wrote other important works.

Bump.

I can't believe there's still nothing by either of the Niebuhrs. We just recently got Christ and Culture Revisited by D.A. Carson, which builds on the earlier work of Niebuhr. It would be helpful to have Christ and Culture in Logos. It's a classic.

I don't think anyone has given a list of requested Niebuhr books yet, so here you go:

• Theology, History, and Culture: Major Unpublished Writings
