"The Evangelical Dictionary of Theology and before it the Baker Dictionary of Theology have been valuable reference tools for decades. This latest edition, sixteen years after the previous one, is very welcome. Narrowing the focus to theology per se has created space for a fuller coverage of this area with many new entries. This book is no mere update or new edition but is a substantially new work in its own right. A valuable reference tool to have at hand."
--Tony Lane, London School of Theology

"Few reference works ever achieve the status of 'classic, ' but the Evangelical Dictionary of Theology is one that has. I am glad to see this updated version ready to serve a new generation of theology students."
--Timothy George, Beeson Divinity School, Samford University; general editor, Reformation Commentary on Scripture

"This is an indispensable tool for anyone who wants to study and communicate Christian Scripture and thought. I'm so grateful it has been enhanced for a new season."
--John Ortberg, senior pastor, Menlo Church; author of All the Places to Go

"For over thirty years the Evangelical Dictionary of Theology has been the first stop for students, pastors, and teachers to explore distinctly evangelical perspectives on crucial theological ideas, terms, and issues. This new edition brings much-needed voices from underrepresented communities to enrich and broaden our understanding. I could not be more pleased or enthusiastic about its release."
--Mark Young, Denver Seminary

"I commend the robust theological focus of this new edition of the now classic work, the Evangelical Dictionary of Theology. The sheer scope of evangelical contributors is breathtaking! In a day when words are daily humiliated, this volume is a powerful reminder of the power of words and their meaning. The articles contained in this excellent volume are important and well researched. I heartily commend it!"
--Timothy C. Tennent, Asbury Theological Seminary

"The new edition of the Evangelical Dictionary of Theology is a monumental achievement of evangelical scholarship. The articles and essays produced by the outstanding group of contributors to this remarkable, wide-ranging, balanced, and accessible volume will ably serve the next generation of students, pastors, and scholars alike. It is a privilege to recommend this work."
--David S. Dockery, Trinity International University

"A first-class work of theological scholarship, providing an evenhanded and judicious overview of Christian theology from an evangelical standpoint. I cannot recommend it highly enough for students, seminarians, professors, pastors, and anyone interested in Christian ministry."
--Bruce Ashford, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

"With a rigorous focus on the key themes, topics, and people of systematic and historical theology, this volume is an indispensable handbook for pastors and teachers. New to this third edition are many authors and entries related to global Christianity. I will use this resource regularly and recommend it heartily."
--Clinton E. Arnold, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University
