I just want to say - the Andrew Root book in the last batch of recomendations (Churches and the Crisis of Decline) has been super interesting, and some of his perspectives on Barth's views of the church have been very different to how I have seen Barth presented before - very thought provoking. (Also strangely relevant, as someone running a pastoral search committee in a small, midwestern church. I could have been reading my own minutes...)
Pastor and Professor Spaulding, what a very helpful overview of the "Companions to Karl Barth's Theology." Thank you so very much.

It is also worth noting:
Burnett, Richard, ed. The Westminster Handbook to Karl Barth. Louisville:
Westminster John Knox, 2013.
and
Beintker, Michael, ed. Barth Handbuch. Tubingen: Mohr Siebeck, 2016 (in German).
Thanks for the service you are providing!
