Description

Reformed theology is one of the major Protestant theological traditions in the United States and Western Europe, one that includes various forms of Presbyterianism and dozens of other denominations, all deeply influenced by the Swiss reformer John Calvin. Reformed Theology from A to Z is an accessible presentation of some 116 theological terms and how they are understood in Reformed theology. Each article is approximately 300 words in length, giving a clear and succinct presentation of the meaning of the term along with its understanding and use in the tradition. The terms are arranged alphabetically—from A to Z—showing the breadth of this major strain of Protestantism. This book is written so those with little or no theological backgrounds will understand the terms. Pastors will appreciate the book as a handy reference work to their insights on the meanings of theological terms as they reflect and interpret the terms to others. Protestant seminary students in mainline denominations will also value the book as a convenient reference to terms they encounter in their studies. Since the book is compact, it is of special value for these specific audiences; it is a unique resource for studying Reformed theology and its emphases. McKim provides clear, compact, and reliable descriptions of a wide range of theological terms with discussions that are understandable to those without formal theological training.
