An Exploration of Christian Theology Paperback -

From the rear cover

"A valuable resource for all students of theology"

In this introduction to Christian theology, Don Thorsen explores the whole Christian tradition in a simple and straightforward way. He surveys the theological views represented within historic Christianity and discusses the variety of positions held without favoring one over another. The second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated and includes two new chapters on apologetics and the future of the unevangelized.

"Thorsen provides a guide through theology that is helpful for those curious about Christianity and those seeking to understand the breadth of the tradition. Insightful and fiercely fair, this book is a model of generosity and faithfulness."
--Vincent Bacote, Wheaton College

"Thorsen has created an accessible work that will be a valuable resource for all students of theology. Whether one is searching for answers to challenging questions or seeking faith, this uniquely ecumenical approach to theology will provide a roadmap. This excellent exploration of theology draws one into the practical notions of the Christian life."
--Carla Sunberg, general superintendent, Church of the Nazarene

"Thorsen has given us a gift with this comprehensive 'exploration' of the Christian faith. The reader--whether a student new to the material or a pastor or scholar familiar with it--will appreciate his depth of thinking and his translation of difficult concepts into easy-to-understand explanations. Perhaps what I find most compelling about this treatment of Christianity is its underlying premise that it should serve as a bridge between one's stated beliefs and one's practice of life, between studying theology (theoretical) and living our lives (practical). I'm sure others will find this equally as compelling."
--Antonios Kireopoulos, associate general secretary, National Council of Churches, USA
