FOUNDATIONAL THEOLOGY FOR THE 21ST CENTURY

In “A Theology of Word Spirit”, Donald Bloesch presents a comprehensive and systematic approach to theology, grounded in the Reformation emphasis on biblical revelation and illuminated by the Holy Spirit. This inaugural volume of his seven-volume “Christian Foundations” series provides a thorough survey of his method, engaging with the latest theological concerns while remaining vitally connected to the traditions of Augustine, Luther, Calvin, and Barth. Bloesch’s work offers a rich and nuanced exploration of the intersections between faith, scripture, and contemporary culture.

ENGAGING WITH CONTEMPORARY THEOLOGICAL DEBATES

Bloesch’s work is characterized by its ability to engage with pressing theological debates, including discussions of relativism, biblical authority, fideism, and rationalism. He also explores the use of feminine-gender language for God, narrative theology, and the challenges of hermeneutics. By drawing on a lifetime of devoted scholarship and passionate dialogue, Bloesch provides fresh and faithful discussions of these complex issues, pointing the way toward a confessional theology for the 21st century.
