Reformed Humanism by David Fergusson - 9780567712745

Reformed HumanismEssays on Christian Doctrine, Philosophy, and Church\nAuthor(s): David Fergusson\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, United Kingdom\nImprint: T.& T.Clark Ltd\nISBN-13: 9780567712745, 978-0567712745\nSynopsis\nThe volume comprises a collection of essays ordered in three parts, each of which describes broadly the sub-fields of theology to which these belong. The essays tackle core themes in Christian doctrine, the longstanding relationship of theology to philosophy, and a series of challenges facing churches today. While the volume represents a Reformed theological approach often with a historical focus, it self-consciously reflects an ecumenical and critical perspective. The term humanism reflects an openness to insight, understanding and correction from different fields of knowledge, while its Reformed designation positions the work within a recognized theological tradition though seeking to avoid imprisonment by it. \n\nA further feature of .
