"Modern Reformed Theology in America has shown astonishing variety in its expression. Grouped under the name âReformedâ are, in fact, five diverse traditions â the Princeton theology, Westminster Calvinism, the Dutch schools, Southern Reformed thought, and Neoorthodoxy. This book provides penetrating analysis of these five traditions and the two leading theologians of each. The result is an important advance in our understanding of ..."

"David F. Wells's award-winning book No Place for Truth - called "a stinging indictment of evangelicalism's theological corruption" by TIME magazine - woke many evangelicals to the fact that their tradition has slowly but surely capitulated to the values and structures of modernity. In God in the Wasteland Wells continues his trenchant analysis of the cultural corruption now weakening the church's thought and witness with the intent of g ..."

Along with their parishioners, they have abandoned genuine Christianity and biblical truth in favor of the sort of inner-directed experientia ..."

"Of course, shame also plays a rather different role; it stands guard over our own
inner mysteries. This sense of shame protectively brackets what is private from
what is public. lt cordons off from the scrutiny of others our intimate knowledge,
innermost feelings, disappointments, failures, weaknesses, and sometimes
affections. And, as pastoral psychotherapist Carl Schneider notes, an element of
reticence is appropriate to human re ..."

"On retrieving historic Protestant faith today At its heart, the Protestant Reformation was about a deep, doctrinally shaped faith centered on God and his Word. But that historic, substantive faith is not faring so well in our contemporary Western (post-Christian) context. In his 2008 book The Courage to Be Protestant, David Wells issued a summons to return to the historic faith, defined by the Reformation solas (grace, faith, and Script ..."

It addresses how God is both one and tripersonal and goes on to define the Trin ..."
