Overview
In this course Roger Olson thematically traces the contours of Christian belief down through the ages, revealing a pattern of both unity and diversity. He finds a consensus of teaching that is both unitive and able to incorporate a faithful diversity when not forced into the molds of false either-or alternatives.
The mosaic that emerges from Olson’s work displays a mediating evangelical theology that is irenic in spirit and tone. Olson masterfully sketches out the contours of the Great Tradition of the Christian faith with simplicity while avoiding oversimplification.
