A History of Christian Theology (Repack)

A Trinitarian Approach

About this book

A Historical Examination of Christian Theology through a Trinitarian FrameworkTheology is important. But so is the storybehindthe specific doctrines that have been debated, defined, and refined throughout church history. In this book, professor Gerald Bray introduces readers to the history of Christian theology, the Trinity (our doctrine of God), and the Bible (our knowledge of God).Unlike other books on the topic, Bray's volume is not organized primarily by time period or distinct doctrinal categories. Rather, it puts theology first and history second, following a Trinitarian pattern that begins with God the Father, moves on to God the Son, and ends with God the Holy Spirit. This unique approach offers readers a more holistic understanding of the development of theology, paralleling the order in which the church wrestled through challenging theological issues and controversies related to God, man, and salvation.- Accessible: Aimed at non-specialists, not just the academic community- Unique Organization: Uses a Trinitarian framework to provide a more holistic understanding of the development of theology- Historical: Explores the Jewish background behind the development of Christian theology- Written by Gerald Bray: An internationally renowned historian and theologian- Replaces ISBN 978-1-4335-2694-7
