Contents:
Paul Wells -- Sola scriptura as an evangelical theological method? / John Bolt -- No easy task: John R. Franke and the character of theology/ Paul Helm -- Whosoever will be saved: emerging church, meet Christian dogma/ R. Scott Clark -- "Right reason" and theological aesthetics at Old Princeton Seminary: the "mythical evangelical magisterium" reconsidered/ Paul Kjoss Helseth -- Cornelius Van Til: "principled" theologian or foundationalist? / Jeffrey C. Waddington -- Church and community or community and church? / Ronald N. Gleason -- It's "Wright," but is it right? An assessment and engagement of an "emerging" rereading of the ministry of Jesus/ Guy Prentiss Waters -- Joyriding on the downgrade at breakneck speed: the dark side of diversity/ Phil Johnson -- Entrapment: the emerging church conversation and the cultural captivity of the gospel/ Martin Downes -- Saved from the wrath of God: an examination of Brian McLaren's approach to the doctrine of hell/ Greg D. Gilbert -- The emergent church/ Gary Gilley.
Subject: Thirteen Reformed scholars take on postmodern evangelicals and provide a solid, biblical critique of their ideas. While self-described "post-conservative evangelicals" enjoy increasing influence in the evangelical world, they represent a significant challenge to biblical faith. Popularizers like Brian McLaren (of Emergent Church fame) trade on the work of scholars like Stan Grenz, John Franke, and Roger Olson, whose "innovations" represent a major makeover of traditional and historic evangelical theology. This is especially the case with the doctrines of Scripture, the atonement, and the character of God ;
