Analytic Theology and the Academic Study of Religion

by William Wood

2021 · Oxford University Press

Analytic theology can flourish in the secular academy, and flourish as authentically Christian theology. Analytic Theology and the Academic Study of Religion explains analytic theology to other theologians and scholars of religion, while simultaneously explaining those other fields to analytic theologians. William Wood defends analytic theology from some common criticisms, but also argues that analytic theologians have much to learn from other forms of inquiry. Analytic theology is a legitimate form of theology, and a legitimate form of academic inquiry, and it can be a valuable conversation partner within the wider religious studies academy. Analytic Theology and the Academic Study of Religion articulates an attractive vision of analytic theology, fosters a more fruitful inter-disciplinary conversation, and enables scholars across the religious studies academy to understand one another better.

In the first volume of the series, Prolegomena, On Scripture, On Faith, distinguished theologian and philosopher William Lane Craig begins by introducing his conception of systematic philosophical theology, describing how it relates to biblical theology, dogmatics, fundamental theology, apologetics, and especially philosophy of religion. The chapters that follow defend the divine authority of Scripture, address the nature of faith, and discuss the rational justification for Christian faith. Throughout the text, Craig tackles deep philosophical issues that arise naturally from Christian doctrine, such as questions regarding the compatibility of biblical inspiration and human freedom. Taking a synoptic, integrative approach that lays the foundation for engaging with subsequent volumes in the series, Prolegomena, On Scripture, On Faith: Offers a deep integration of philosophy and theology Characterizes the main features of systematic theology, including its nature, goals, subject matter, and relations to adjacent disciplines Combines sacred and secular knowledge to build a synoptic worldview bridging the gap between theology and scientific disciplines Presents creative formulations of Christian doctrines, such as a Molinist doctrine of biblical inspiration Systematic Philosophical Theology, Volume I: Prolegomena, On Scripture, On Faith is essential reading for philosophers of religion, systematic theologians, analytic theologians, and Christian philosophers. It is also a valuable resource for students and scholars of religion, philosophy of religion, and theology, as well as laypeople and academics in other fields.

God is a Communicative Being

by William M. Schweitzer

2012 · A&C Black

Over the past half century, there has been a proliferation of scholarship on the great American theologian Jonathan Edwards. However, the vast majority of this output confines itself to the details of his work. With some welcome exceptions, the forest has often been missed for the trees. In this ground breaking study William Schweitzer presents a new reading of Edwards: He starts with the question what is distinctive in Edwards' theology? The answer comes in Edwards' insight into Trinitarian life. God is eternally communicative of his knowledge, love, and joy among the Three Persons of the Trinity, and this divine communicativeness was for Edwards the explanation for why God created the universe. More specifically, however, Edwards believed that God's communication carries with it the Trinitarian hallmark of “harmony.” This hallmark is not always east to discern, even for the regenerate. Edwards' lifelong project-as demonstrated by the common purpose of all three unfinished “Great Works”-was to interpret the harmony found in and among the several media of revelation.
