Tracks of a Theological Chimera

On November 1, 2024, David Frye released Tracks of a Theological Chimera: an anthology, a textual stained-glass window, a bricolage that derives its message from the coordinated diversity of its parts. Just as a chimera—the mythological beast composed of portions of a lion, a goat, and a serpent—does not fall into any one family of animals, this theological work arises from the entanglement of various Christian experiences and academic pursuits.

The book’s contents come in four parts:

  • Pieces in A Path in the Wilderness: Poems respond to the blowing of the Holy Spirit;
  • An Oblate’s Life: Journals speaks of a journey in search of humility and groundedness;
  • the writings in A Search for Understanding: Essays probe how Scripture, Tradition, and human life talk to one another;
  • and the texts in A Voice in the Public Square: Posts address contemporary Christian life and its contextual challenges for both individuals and institutions.
