Witness/James W. McClendon

Descriere

Description The radical effects of the 16th century Reformation have been felt through generations and have profoundly shaped theology. James William Mc Clendon explores the impact of these effects for the heirs of the Reformation in his celebrated three-volume systematic theology. With a new introduction by Curtis W. Freeman, these comprehensive volumes elucidate a distinctly Baptist vision of theology through Mc Clendon's exposition of Christian ethics, doctrine, and witness. In so doing, Mc Clendon provides readers with a robust vision for understanding Scripture, the Church, and the Christian's place within the world. About the author James William Mc Clendon, Jr. was a Christian theologian in the Anabaptist tradition and the author of several important works, including Biography as Theology: How Life Stories Can Remake Today's Theology and Making Gospel Sense to a Troubled Church. Nancey Murphy is Professor of Christian Philosophy at Fuller Theological Seminary. Curtis W. Freeman is Research Professor of Theology and Director of the Baptist House of Studies at Duke Divinity School.
