<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>An ecumenical roster of leading scholars explores trinitarian faith as it is concretely experienced in the life of the church.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In this volume, a noted theologian brings together an ecumenical roster of leading scholars to explore trinitarian faith as it is concretely experienced in the life of the church. Drawing upon and fostering renewed interest in trinitarian theology, the contributors--including Brian E. Daley, John Behr, and Kathleen McVey--clarify the centrality of trinitarian doctrine in salvation, worship, and life. This is the third volume in Holy Cross Studies in Patristic Theology and History, a partnership between Baker Academic and the Pappas Patristic Institute of Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology. The series is a deliberate outreach by the Orthodox community to Protestant and Catholic seminarians, pastors, and theologians.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>"This book brings together an all-star cast of theologians to explain the role of the Holy Trinity in the life of the church. It also represents the very best of Eastern Orthodox ecumenism. No one interested in the doctrine of the Trinity can afford to overlook this work."<br/>--<b>George Hunsinger</b>, Princeton Theological Seminary<br/><br/>"In the last thirty years, scholars have revolutionized our understanding of how the Christian church came to speak of God as Trinity. This wide-ranging collection of essays both catches readers up on the fruits of that research and pushes it forward. Khaled Anatolios has gathered an excellent array of scholars to explore various contours of this most profound mystery of the Christian faith. And they start where they should, with Christian liturgy, for it is out of the experience of worship--of baptism, of meditation on the Scriptures, of Eucharist--that the trinitarian faith of Christians is rooted, is experienced, is savored."<br/>--<b>William Harmless, SJ</b>, Creighton University<br/><br/>"It is not just <i>what</i> Christians believe, but in <i>whom</i> we believe--God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit--that should inform everything we do in worship, life, and ministry. For those seeking to answer the question of how our life in the church and the world grows out of our faith in the Trinity, this book provides food for deep thought and reflection. It is a pleasure to recommend it."<br/>--<b>Donald Fairbairn</b>, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary; author of <i>Life in the Trinity</i><br/><br/>"In this rich collection of essays, a holy impatience enlists meticulous historical scholarship to articulate the trinitarian dynamics at work, whether recognized or not, in the faith lives of Christian communities. Convinced that <i>ressourcement</i> opens the path to a revitalized trinitarian theology, the authors trace the connections between liturgy, Scripture, theology, and spirituality in patristic literature, offering fresh readings of major figures, in the face of which conventional truisms fall away. Representing Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and Protestant traditions, they are no mere antiquarians but write with an eye to the relevance of their research for contemporary theology, ecumenism, and issues of gendered speech about God."<br/>--<b>William P. Loewe</b>, Catholic University of America<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Khaled Anatolios</b> (PhD, Boston College) is professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame. He previously taught in the Boston College School of Theology and Ministry. Anatolios is the author of <i>Retrieving Nicaea: The Development and Meaning of Trinitarian Doctrine </i>and two volumes on Athanasius.
