Reviews in Religion & Theology
"Students frequently arrive at seminary with deep faith commitments
but often with a alack of knowledge of the Christian tradition and
theology. Inbody's succinct survey of theology goes a long way in
providing students with the background knowledge necessary to
engage in theological reflections." International Journal of
Systematic Theology
"As a first introduction to a wide range of topics, something to
provide students with a framework . . ., it is a very good little
book. I will certainly be recommending it to students new to the
study of theology." John B. Cobb Jr.
"This book can be recommended to a broad range of readers.
Requiring very little previous acquaintance with Christian thought
or the intellectual history of the West, it formulates Christian
teaching in an attractive and convincing fashion in terms that are
acceptable to a wide variety of believers." Thomas Jay Oord
"Too many introductory theology texts are one-dimensional. . . In
contrast, Tyron Inbody offers a multidimensional text that covers
the major theological issues of today and yesterday. He converses
with contemporary culture and the contemporary church, with the
mind and the heart, with the ancient and the postmodern. And his
writing is understandable. This text explores a variety of
traditions and ideas, yet it retains a richness and depth that will
satisfy those who want to do more than scratch the surface of
life's biggest questions." Clark H. Pinnock
"This is a theology text written with actual students in mind.
Treating matters fundamental to life, the book is both accessible
and substantial. An attractive introductory text."
