Biography[]
Sonderegger received her AB in Medieval Studis from Smith College (1972), an M.Div. (Biblical Studies, 1976) and STM (Theology, 1984) at Yale Divinity School, and a Ph.D. from Brown University in Western Religious Thought (1990). Her Ph.D. dissertation was revised and published as That Jesus Christ was Born a Jew: Karl Barth's Doctrine of Israel (1992). She has taught at Middlebury Seminary (1987–2002) and Bangor Theological Seminary (1993–1996) and, since 2002, at Virginia Theological Seminary, where she became the William Meade Professor in 2014. She was ordained a minister of the United Church of Christ in 1977, but in 1993 confirmed into the Episcopal Church and ordained a deacon and a priest in 2000.[1]
Systematic Theology[]
In 2015, Sonderegger published her second book The Doctrine of God, the first in a planned multi-volume systematic theology. Her project will focus on the unity of God in contrast to what she sees as the overemphasis of contemporary Christian theology on the Trinity.[2] It also emphasizes that systematic theology should be undergirded by the Christian Bible.[3]
