Faith, Life and Theology: A Reorientation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780888152671)

Faith, Life and Theology presents a significantly innovative approach to the broad spectrum of questions normally attached to the issue of "What Is It That Constitutes The Nature Of Theology." Rather than pursuing the highly speculative approaches endemic to Scholasticism, or the biblicistic emphasis on the Scriptures as a textbook on theology, Vander Stelt focuses on what is actually accessible to real, empirical, human study: namely, the phenomenon of faith as it comes to expression in human life in every age, in response to God's self-disclosure to humankind in Word revelation and in Christ.
