Description
Christian Theology: The Basics is a concise introduction to the nature, tasks, and central concerns of theology β the study of God within the Christian tradition. Providing a broad overview of the story that Christianity tells us about our human situation before God, this book also seeks to provide encouragement and a solid foundation for the readerβs further explorations within the subject.
With debates surrounding the relation between faith and reason in theology, the book opens with a consideration of the basis of theology and goes on to explore key topics including:
- The identity of Jesus and debates in Christology
- The role of the Bible in shaping theological inquiry
- The centrality of the Trinity for all forms of Christian thinking
- The promise of salvation and how it is achieved
With suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter, along with a glossary, Christian Theology: The Basics is the ideal starting point for those new to the study of theology.
