A History of Christian Theology: A Trinitarian Approach

“A remarkably learned, wise, and substantial study of the history of Christian doctrine. Written by an Anglican who is also an evangelical, this volume interacts with the entire scope of Christian theology in all of its major ecclesial trajectories. This book will stand the test of time―in the best tradition of Newman, Harnack, and Pelikan.”

“Despite its breadth, one that covers the centuries, A History of Christian Theology also plumbs the depths of numerous doctrines throughout the church’s last two thousand years. This volume is an excellent resource for students, pastors, and scholars, and for anyone who wants to study the organic development of the church’s theology. This will prove to be an invaluable resource for generations to come.”

“Under Gerald Bray’s able pen, the history of Christian thought comes to life. Bray’s Trinitarian way of framing the story of Christian doctrine is a creative and helpful contribution to the discipline. His familiarity with the sources from every branch of the Christian tree is refreshing―and enviable! His evenhanded narrative―mixed with periodic personal commentary that is often witty, always insightful, and occasionally provocative―makes this book a delight to read. A History of Christian Theology will be essential reading for scholars and students for years to come. Highly recommended.”
