Theology For the Community of God by Stanley
J. Grenz Format: soft cover Book Condition: very good Markings: 19 pages underlining,

Publishing Co./Regent College Publishing Pages: 691 Reviews A fresh reappropriation of the evangelical and catholic heritage of the faith. -- Christianity Today Theology for the Community of God signals a clear turning of the corner for evangelical systematics. -Scottish Journal of Theology Product
Description This proven systematic theology represents the very best in
evangelical theology. Stanley Grenz presents the traditional themes of
Christian doctrine--God, humankind, Christ, the Holy Spirit, the church, and
the last things--all within an emphasis on God's central program for creation,
namely, the establishment of community. Masterfully blending biblical,
historical, and contemporary concerns, Grenz's respected work provides a
coherent vision of the faith that is both intellectually satisfying and
expressible in Christian living. This book has to be one of the most accessible evangelical
theology books out there. Grenz's book is scholarly yet simple for the
layperson. He writes from an evangelical Baptist perspective but builds his
work around the concept of the community aspect of the Triune God. He argues
that the Triune God's fellowship overflows into the church. All the sections
are written from this community aspect of redemption. Grenz covers practically
all matters you'll find in standard systematic theologies (from prolegomena to
eschatology). The writing style is not like other more technical systematic
theologies (e.g., Erickson, Grudem, Reymond, etc.) because it is written in a
narrative fashion. You won't see Grenz being too detailed in his discussion of
certain issues (hence, his book is only about 700 pages). This book is a must
read for anyone wanting a good and easy introduction to the major topics of
systematic theology. Every generation needs theologians willing to wrestle with the challenging task of communicating the timeless theological truths of the Bible in the cultural and linguistic setting of the day. Such work is difficult because it requires the theologian to "draw lines" between rigid doctrinalism and syncretism. Stanley Grenz's work provides an excellent example of such a task well done. Theology for the Community of God is easy to read without going "soft" on the often counter-cultural claims of the Bible. I highly recommend it for the serious Bible student and for the average person seeking a deeper understanding of the Christian faith.
