4.0 out of 5 stars
Truly a provacative read,
By Dave Scribner (Alexandria, Virginia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Edwards in Our Time: Jonathan Edwards and the Shaping of American Religion (Paperback)
Through a series of Essays, the thoughts of Jonathan Edwards on a number of topics, from nature to revival are analysed and expounded.I don't have a deep philosophical background, but found reading it and learning the unfamilier terms to be rewarding. Edwards was truly a marvelous thinker, and wether you agree or disagree, his thoughts will make you stretch your own. For the most part, the authors are true to Edwards sound Christian Theology, showing just how far ahead in his thinking he was from most contemporary christian authors. Most of the essyas are top notch, and focus on Edwards, but there are two or three that are self serving and Edwards is used to advance the authors pet cause or philosophy- in an otherwise excellent volume these were quite out of place. Recommend to anyone who wants to get beyond the "brain candy" you will find in your average Christian Bookstore. |
