Summing Up: Recommended."

- D. K. McKim, Memphis Theological Seminary in CHOICE

"Murray Rae has offered teachers and interested readers a robust (occasionally even literary), yet concise, introduction to the most difficult and debated issues in Christian theology. His efforts will richly reward those who are willing to “pick up and read!”

Reseña del editor:

Christian Theology: The Basics is a concise introduction to the nature, tasks and central concerns of theology – 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 will also seek to provide encouragement and a solid foundation for the reader’s 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 study of theology.
