About this book

Benjamín Valentín presents a substantive yet accessible introduction to the three central doctrines of Christian theology: God, humanity, and Christ. In an engaging style, Valentín offers an overview of each of these doctrines, delving into its tradition within the Christian community throughout history, from the writing of Scripture forward. He explores what contemporary life can teach us about each of these doctrines, how that compares to traditional understandings, and how the two can come together in creative reconstruction. Throughout, Valentín highlights the diversity of Christian thought, bringing together past tradition and contemporary questions to arrive at a new understanding of what these important doctrines can mean for us today. Each chapter concludes with suggested readings for further study. (Back cover).
