Throughout the twentieth century, Britain produced some of the most
prominent evangelical theologians in both church and academic
circles. This survey and introduction, edited by Thomas Noble and
Jason Sexton, presents twelve of these theologians, exploring what
made their work so influential and their continued relevance for
today. As well as surveying each man's work, British Evangelical
Theologians of the Twentieth Century considers what is meant by
calling these theologians 'evangelical' Christians - taking into
account their understanding of biblical authority, standing in the
Reformation tradition and treatment of Scripture as well as their
approaches to biblical criticism and liberal theology. As a result,
it is ideal for students looking to deeper their understanding of
British evangelical Christianity as a whole, as well as increasing
their knowledge of the individual figures From James Orr and
Lesslie Newbigin to John Stott and J. I. Packer, a range of
perspectives within British evangelicalism is reflected. Along with
brief biographies, each body of work is examined in three
particular areas: stance on the Bible ('biblicism'), the atonement
('crucicentrism'), and concern for mission and evangelism
('conversionism'). British Evangelical Theologians of the Twentieth
Century is a thorough introduction to twelve of the keenest and
most influential minds in British evangelical thought. It will
leave you with an appreciation of each man's contribution to
English-speaking evangelicalism, as well as helping you to engage
critically with their theology and understand how their work is
relevant to the development and discussion of British evangelical
theology today.
