This series conceives the nature and task of Christian systematic/constructive theology in a new key. Living as we are in the beginning of the third millennium in a world shaped by cultural, ethnic, sociopolitical, economic, and religious plurality, it is essential for Christian theology to tackle the issues of plurality and diversity. While robustly Christian in its convictions, building on the deep and wide tradition of biblical, historical, philosophical, and contemporary systematic traditions, this project seeks to engage our present cultural and religious diversity in a way Christian theology has not done in the past. Although part of a larger series, each volume can still stand on its own feet, so to speak, and can be read as an individual work.enBook
