Description
This introduction to the history of Christian thought is organized topically, analyzing the great issues that have occupied Christian thinkers since the earliest days of the Church. Questions of doctrine, such as the Trinity and the Incarnation, are dealt with in full, as well as such important issues in natural theology as the existence of God, freedom of the will, and the problem of evil. Urban demonstrates that the foundations of Christian belief are largely rational and that Christian thought, through history, has encompassed the full range of human experience.
