<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A team of international scholars assesses the field of modern theology thematically, covering classic topics in Christian theology over the last 200 years.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>This textbook offers a fresh approach to modern theology by approaching the field thematically, covering classic topics in Christian theology over the last two hundred years. The editors, leading authorities on the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century theology, have assembled a respected team of international scholars to offer substantive treatment of important doctrines and key debates in modern theology. Contributors include Kevin Vanhoozer, John Webster, Veli-Matti Kärkkäinen, and Michael Horton. The volume enables readers to trace how key doctrinal questions were discussed, where the main debates lie, and how ideas developed. Topics covered include the Trinity, divine attributes, creation, the atonement, ethics, practical theology, and ecclesiology.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>A Fresh Approach to Modern Theology<br/></b><br/>"This outstanding collection of essays with contributions from leaders in the field will appeal to scholars and students alike. The editors have managed to provide the reader with a genuine alternative to other textbooks. The essays are all excellent, setting a high watermark for other such symposia. It should quickly establish itself as a resource of choice for those wanting a comprehensive account of modern Christian theology that is alert to historical as well as systematic considerations. I highly recommend it."<br/>--<b>Oliver Crisp</b>, Fuller Theological Seminary<br/><br/>"This intriguing volume fills a gap in teaching materials for theological students that has long been noteworthy: it tackles the traditional loci of systematic theology through the lens of modernity's particular challenges. Intended primarily for students in the Reformed tradition, this book will prove to be an excellent textbook and focus for debate; the editors are to be congratulated on the quality and insightfulness of the contributions."<br/>--<b>Sarah Coakley</b>, University of Cambridge<br/><br/>"This collection of fifteen essays on key topics will repay careful study. Through examining the different ways in which the central doctrines of the Christian faith have been handled under the pressures of modernity, it provides valuable orientation for students of modern theology. Clear, informed, and insightful, it deserves inclusion on all relevant reading lists."<br/>--<b>David Fergusson</b>, New College, University of Edinburgh<br/><br/>"A volume such as this is a welcome guide indeed to the contours of modern theology. Especially valuable is the organization of this book according to the classical doctrinal loci and central concerns of the Christian theological tradition. An impressive lineup of scholars provides a sure guide to the ways each of these concerns has been treated within the context of modernity and demonstrates thereby the necessity of our striving, even if sometimes failing, to tell of the gospel in ways both responsible to the tradition and alert to the realities of contemporary culture."<br/>--<b>Murray Rae</b>, University of Otago<br/><br/>"The best book of its kind. Highly recommended."<br/>--<b>Adam A. Neder</b>, Whitworth University<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Kelly M.
