But since World War II, evangelical intellectualism has made a surprising comeback. Esteem has been regained especially in such disciplines as history and philosophy. Now evangelical theologians are making their bid for academic respectability." "A Passion for Truth, written by one of evangelicalism's outstanding younger theologians, seeks to show that the movement has in its heritage excellent resources to engage the scholarly debates of the day." "McGrath first sets forth the construction ground on which evangelicalism stands, then shows how this revivified school of thought might respond to such important theological and cultural realities as postmodernism, religious pluralism and postliberalism. His book is fresh and exciting evidence that evangelicalism is coming of age."--Jacket 0aEvangelicalism.940895 a7bcbccorignewd1eocipf19gy-gencatlg 2lcccBOOKhBR 1640i.M42 1996 c11412d11412 00102lcc40708BooksaAUA.1bAUA.1cGSd2014-02-20eBought by JTLg17.00hAUA014182l0oBR 1640 .M42 1996pAUA014182r2014-02-20 00:00:00v17.00w2014-02-20yBOOK
