VISION AND STRATEGIC PLANNING

The Moody Handbook of Theology

Plot

Theology -- the study of God, his nature, and his Word -- is essential to the Christian faith. Now those interested in Christian theology have a revised and updated reference tool in the Moody Handbook of Theology. Paul Enns has revamped each chapter of his original work to include the latest in theological studies and trends, and has added several new chapters that address contemporary issues facing the church today. Readers will find much help in chapters on evangelical feminism, charismatic theology, and the emerging church, as well as new material on the openness of God, rapture interpretations, and health and wealth theology. Enns also offers a comprehensive overview of the five dimensions of theology: biblical, systematic, historical, dogmatic, and contemporary. Each section includes an introduction, chapters on key points, specific studies pertinent to that theology, books for further study, and summary evaluations of each dimension. Charts, graphs, glossary, and indexes add depth and breadth. Theology, once the domain of academicians and learned pastors, is now accessible to anyone interested in understanding the essentials of Christian theology. The Moody Handbook of Theology is a concise doctrinal reference tool for newcomers and seasoned veterans alike. - Back cover.
