Stan Hauerwas hates the gospel of grace apart from works. Much like NT Wright, Stan thinks the content of the faith of Abraham is the promise that there will always be Jews. Instead of grace, his hope is that Jesus is a Jew. Hauerwas rejects the discontinuity of what he calls "replacement theology" and puts his trust in the doctrine of the "real presence" of Christ's body in the sacrament. For a good alternative, read Paul Zahl's book on Jesus the First Christian
I really admire and share his view of the people of Israel in Christianity.
I love the argument for evangelism that he draws out of his citizenship argument.
He believes what he’s saying?

Faith is never alone. Our faith must not be in faith, but it must be in Christ.
