Dallas Theological Seminary is often viewed as a bastion of
conservative evangelicalism, marked by an unswerving devotion to
theological positions of fundamentalism, biblical inerrancy, and
dispensational premillennialism. An Uncommon Union, the first
book-length history of Dallas Theological Seminary, written by a
graduate and veteran faculty member of DTS, provides a necessary
corrective to such a simplistic assessment. Using the tenures of
the school's five presidents as the backbone for his narrative,
John D. Hannah reveals the tensions that DTS has experienced in its
eighty-plus years of existence. Each successive president of DTS
brought his own unique style and perceptions to the school, even as
he dealt with the changing religious and cultural milieu that
swirled around it. Hannah argues that, rather than being a
monolithic institution, Dallas Theological Seminary is a unique
blend of differing heritages and of opposing traditions, a place
that defies easy categorization. A keenly insightful and thoughtful
work, An Uncommon Union illuminates the path charted by the leaders
of a prominent American seminary in a rapidly changing world. All
readers interested in the history and future of evangelicalism,
regardless of their theological persuasion, will benefit from this
book.
