The turbulence and confusion of contemporary life should motivate
us to ask the big questions of life anew and to reexamine the
disastrous naturalism of the twentieth century. This volume gathers
well-known thinkers from a breadth of confessional Christian
traditions who share a passionate interest in better understanding
the nature of persons.
The contributors to "Personal Identity in Theological
Perspective aim to recover the ancient biblical account of human
beings as made "in the image of God." Their essays fall naturally
into three divisions -- retrieving historical discussions of human
identity, presenting contemporary challenges to a distinctively
Christian anthropology, and offering constructive proposals toward
a richer understanding of persons. This volume will provoke
discussion and debate on the fundamental question "What does it
mean to be human?
