With contributions from some of the most respected scholars in the evangelical world, this book speaks both to the discipline of theology and to the ongoing dialogue between Christianity and modern thought. The subjects discussed fall under three main heading: the image of God, the self disclosure of God, and creation and its restoration. Each section begins with a meditation by John Scott, which provides a biblical context for the essays that follow. Additionally, the editors introduction positions the essays in the current state o evangelical theology in both the West and the Third World.
