Overview

Roger E. Olson is the Foy Valentine Professor of Christian Theology and Ethics at Baylor University’s George W. Truett Theological Seminary. This collection of five works examines modern theology thematically tracing the contours of Christian belief down through the ages, revealing a pattern of both unity and diversity. Olson finds a consensus of teaching that is both unitive and able to incorporate a faithful diversity when not forced into the molds of false either-or alternatives.

Key Features

• Sets forth classical Arminian theology and addresses the myriad misunderstandings and misrepresentations of it through the ages
• Explores modern theology, from the liberal “reconstruction” of theology to the postliberal and postmodern “deconstruction” of modern theology that continues today
