1.0 out of 5 stars Not very trinitarian, July 29, 2011
By 
Derek Newbery (Naples, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: God's Life in Trinity (Paperback)
The chapter titles intrigued me and I was excited to read a book which would challenge me to think about a number of areas of life in light of the Trinity. Yet many of the chapters barely even touched on the Trinity. Also, the majority of chapters interacted far more with other theologians than Scripture which was disappointing. I would have to think there are better books out there with similar intended application. Many of the authors also make up their own words and thus it becomes an extremely difficult book to interact with. I definitely do not recommend this book.
