A PROVEN REFERENCE TOOL

Reviews of the first edition:

"Provides for the first time a full and balanced overview of evangelical theology." -Library Journal

"EDT is a work of responsible evangelical scholarship, judicious, and generally fair to all sides. It has no ax to grind, though it does have a position to present. And happily, this it does with an acceptable confidence." -Christianity Today

"A first-class piece of evangelical scholarship . . . [it] deserves a place in the library of every evangelical pastor, scholar, and local church." - Trinity Journal

"The definitive theological dictionary from an evangelical standpoint. . . . Here is a reference tool that ought without question to be on the shelf of every university student, seminarian, and Christian worker." -Themelios

"This is a book that all who are concerned about Christian ministry, whether on a professional or a lay level, would do well to have." -Robert H. Culpepper, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

"A prodigious and significant work." -Review and Expositor
