Summary: A Much-Needed and Useful Book
Comment: As someone who has sat through many lectures and read many articles that have showcased fussy and pedantic theology, I find Dr. Charry's book to be a breath of fresh air. She is reclaiming theology from the academic elite and bringing it back to the Church and its people. Unlike some theological works by contemporary professors, Dr. Charry's book serves to bring people closer to the Triune God. She carefully guides the reader through the writings of the Apostle Paul and some of the major patristic theologians, as well as some Medieval and even one Reformed theologian.
My one criticism of this otherwise fine book is that, to me, it seemed too heavily weighted towards Medieval theologians at the expense of the theologians of the Reformation traditions. Surely some reflection upon Martin Luther, Jonathan Edwards and Karl Barth could draw the reader closer to God, as well.
Rating: 5
Summary: Definitely Renewed
Comment: Dr. Ellen Charry understands the writings of early patristic fathers and mothers to be more than just apolgetics. Dr. Charry gets to the core of their writings by discovering that the authors are calling for excellence (aretology) in each and every Christian. This book brings clarity and flavor to the classical Theologians of early Christian history.
