Know the Theologians (Jennifer Powell McNutt and David W. McNutt)
Know the Theologians is an introduction to the most important thinkers throughout church history and a demonstration of their ongoing relevance for believers today. The Bible describes the church as a kind of family. Those who believe in Christ are sisters and brothers in the faith, whether they live at the same time or are separated by centuries. For that reason, believers today need to know our family members who have come before and shaped our beliefs and practices now. Professors and authors Jennifer Powell McNutt and David W. McNutt survey over a dozen primary figures, including Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, and Protestant theologians who represent the breadth and depth of the church's theology. The study explores how they fit into their own time period and also draws attention to the theological voices of women throughout the church's history.
