This book introduces Reformed theology by surveying the doctrinal
concerns that have shaped its historical development. The book
sketches the diversity of the Reformed tradition through the past
five centuries even as it highlights the continuity with regard to
certain theological emphases. In so doing, it accentuates that
Reformed theology is marked by both formal ('the always reforming
church') and material ('the Reformed church') interests.
Furthermore, it attends to both revisionary and conservative trends
within the Reformed tradition. The book covers eight major
theological themes: Word of God, covenant, God and Christ, sin and
grace, faith, worship, confessions and authority, and culture and
eschatology. It engages a variety of Reformed confessional
writings, as well as a number of individual theologians (including
Zwingli, Calvin, Bullinger, Bucer, Beza, Owen, Turretin, Edwards,
Schleiermacher, Hodge, Shedd, Heppe, Bavinck, Barth, and Niebuhr).
"Doing Theology" introduces the major Christian traditions and
their way of theological reflection. The volumes focus on the
origins of a particular theological tradition, its foundations, key
concepts, eminent thinkers and historical development. The series
is aimed readers who want to learn more about their own theological
heritage and identity: theology undergraduates, students in
ministerial training and church study groups.
