Overview

Put together as a companion volume to his earlier volume, Word and Church, in this book John Webster begins to give voice to a reordered conception of the substance of Christian teaching, at the heart of which lies a discovery of the content and consequences of Christian teaching about God’s perfection.

Webster gives the readers a worked example of ‘theological theology’, that is, Christian theology which takes its rise in the Christian confession of the gospel which seeks to hear, celebrate and commend.
