Synopsis
For many evangelicals today J. I. Packer is a household name. His best-selling Knowing God is a classic of evangelical spirituality. Through his popular writings, Packer--perhaps more than any other evangelical writer of his generation--has drawn ordinary people into a deepened understanding of their faith and its spiritual riches. But many who are acquainted with Packer are unaware of the true scope of his writings and his engagement with theological issues of the past fifty years.
The J. I. Packer Collection is the single best introduction to Packer's thought, as well as a remarkably comprehensive introduction to evangelical theology in the Reformed vein. Readers will be struck by Packer's uncanny ability to penetrate to the heart of an issue, the crystalline clarity of his writing, the breadth of his learning and the warmth of his devotion. He is truly one of the great evangelical theologians of our time.
Each of the sixteen hand-picked essays in this collection are introduced by Alister McGrath, a leading evangelical theologian in his own right and author of Packer's biography. Spanning the years 1954-1998, these essays cover a full breadth of topics, many of them recognized landmarks in the past five decades of evangelical theology in the English-speaking world.
For those who wish to grow in their understanding and appreciation of the evangelical faith, The J. I. Packer Collection is essential reading.
