"How we derive knowledge from the Bible is one of the most important and contested questions within Judaism and Christianity. Petre moves beyond an older 'mind-as-machine' foundationalism to propose an evangelical epistemology that honors the complex innerworkings of divine revelation, community, ritual, and the finite limits of human knowing. A valuable book for philosophers and biblical scholars.” —Ryan O’Dowd, Senior Fellow, Chesterton House, Cornell University, USA "This stimulating work makes a significant contribution toward arriving at a canonically-based theological epistemology. Petre lays out his own relational-participative model toward advancing the current discussion. The result is an illuminating, clear, and nuanced discussion of theological epistemology, firmly grounded in commitment to the uniquely normative authority of Scripture." —John C. Peckham, Professor of Theology and Christian Philosophy, Andrews University, USA In the present polyphony of evangelical theological epistemology, there are several authoritative approaches. Yet, the evangelical emphasis on sola scriptura demands that theological epistemology be subjected to the biblical canon. In this book, Dan-Adrian Petre argues for a canonically-derived theological epistemological framework that may foster a fuller understanding of theological knowledge formation within evangelicalism. Specifically, he explores some representative evangelical voices to identify the reasons for the contemporary epistemological variance. Petre then uses a canonical-epistemological methodology to outline a biblically-based framework. In exploring how the Scripture conceptualizes the formation of theological knowledge, the book uses cognitive linguistics to grasp the conceptual meaning of the theological knowledge formation in the Bible using prototypical case studies. The resulting epistemological implications outline a minimal epistemological model derived from the biblical canon. Using this vantage point, the author assesses the contemporary evangelical epistemological dissonance as a means of indicating a way forward for a canonical-epistemological attunement.

This book is a multichapter introduction to spiritual formation within the Christian tradition. Corneliu C. Simuț discusses spiritual formation from the views of several Christian thinkers, with a chapter devoted to each thinker. The concluding chapter notes common themes shared by each thinker. The author presents some key Patristic, Medieval, Early Modern, Modern, and Contemporary theologians in a way that is characterized by brevity, concision, and clarity. Thus, this small book is a useful introduction to spiritual formation from a Christian perspective. It would be helpful for a college student or young adult who seeks to be educated on the subject. The conciseness of the book is a benefit. Yet the book raises interesting questions for further pursuit. A very succinct - but comprehensive - historical presentation of sanctification through the lens of spiritual formation, a concept which has been revived in the past two decades, especially in Evangelical circles, this text is useful for a college course in spiritual formation or religion.

Parmi les religions du monde, le rapport du christianisme à l'histoire est singulier : par son affirmation doctrinale d'une Incarnation de Dieu entre le terme d'une histoire sainte et l'attente d'une fin des temps, mais aussi par son propre développement autour du mémorial sacramentel de la Passion et de la mort du Christ, actualisé dans la liturgie ; et enfin par l'institution Eglise, dans sa durée, dans son expansion géographique, dans la complexité de ses doctrines. Une Histoire du christianisme n'est pas seulement une histoire de l'Eglise, ou des Eglises chrétiennes, ou des institutions : c'est nécessairement une histoire générale, qui intègre le christianisme dans les sociétés qu'il a engendrées, qu'il a nourries et qui l'ont parfois rejeté. Cette histoire est culturelle avant d'être événementielle, doctrinale avant d'être institutionnelle. C'est l'histoire des papes et des conciles, des réformateurs et des saints, c'est aussi celle de tant de poètes et d'architectes, de philosophes et de peintres. Une telle entreprise n'est ni confessionnelle ni nationale. Elle a réuni, sans aucun parti-pris religieux, quatre-vingts collaborateurs, de neuf pays différents, avec l'unique objectif de décrire l'action du christianisme et de ses principes sur les sociétés, des origines au XXIe siècle. Cartes, index, bibliographies et tables chronologiques permettent de parcourir ces deux volumes pour y chercher une information ou pour le plaisir de découvrir une autre histoire religieuse.
