Résumé : |
Few theologians have sparked as much controversy among evangelicals as Karl Barth. On the one hand, he has been pilloried as champion of the new modernism and enemy of historic Christianity. On the other, he has been heralded as pioneer in a return to truly biblical theology.
Gregory Bolich offers a fresh assessment of Barth and his impact on modern evangelicals—the most detailed account of evangelical response to Barth to date. He contends that evangelicals have much to learn from Barth, particularly in abandoning a purely defensive posture and in developing a positive evangelical theology. The stress is not on adopting Barth’s theology uncritically, but on following his model of how to develop a theology that brings scriptural truth to bear on the contemporary world. Here is a book for all who wish to be informed, stretched and challenged in their thinking. |
