About this title

Synopsis

From baby busters to the Willow Creek model to deconstructionism, Where Is Theology Going? tours current events with an eye toward the horizon.
Theologian Millard J. Erickson anticipates challenges that will either make or break the Christian community, depending on whether those in leadership step in now to shape developments or wait and overreact later. He writes about discerning dangers and maximizing opportunities in the areas of: influences in popular culture and postmodern thought that will change how the church grows, worships, evangelizes, and leads; trends in approaches to the historic Christian doctrines of Scripture, God, humanity, sin, Christ, and salvation; and breezes blowing in philosophy, the sciences, and other disciplines.
