Summary: | "In this fully expanded and updated new edition, leading theologian Alister E. McGrath brings together key theological readings to provide a concise and balanced introduction to the Christian faith. Readings are drawn from a broad theological spectrum and includes both historical and contemporary, mainstream and cutting-edge approaches; provides an introduction and analysis of each reading, along with a helpful glossary; uses the Apostle's Creed as a framework to introduce readers to writings on key issues, such as faith, God, Jesus, creation, and salvation; includes a new section on the Holy Spirit and increased coverage of contemporary theology; encourages readers to interact with each text and to engage with primary sources; serves as an ideal companion to the bestselling textbook, Theology: The Basics, but can also be used as a concise, stand-alone reader." -- Publisher's description |
