Introduction to Christianity
Routledge (Verlag)
978-0-367-62604-4 (ISBN)
Originally published in 1958, Introduction to Christianity considers the nature of Christianity as a life shared in an historical, continuing community.
Divided into five parts, the book is a comprehensive interpretation of Christianity as a people created by God’s activity in history, with a focus on the proclamation of the Gospel. It highlights and examines the relevance of Christian doctrine to reflections on the meaning of life, and considers the significance of this at a time in which attitudes towards religion are increasingly ambiguous.
Introduction to Christianity is ideal for those with an interest in the history of Christianity, Christian theology, and religious philosophy.
Paul Hessert
