Critics Review
Oliver Crisp exhibits the virtues that we have come to expect: clarity and lucidity of expression, honest and careful analysis of difficult theological issues, respect for the tradition combined with a refusal simply to repeat older statements, serious and charitable engagement with views that differ from his own, and a remarkably humble willingness to admit how his mind has changed. I learned much from this book, and I expect to learn more from the broader project to follow. * Thomas H. McCall, Asbury Theological Seminary, USA *
In this rich study of the foundational elements of Christian doctrine, Crisp addresses a series of formidable challenges in the doctrine of God. Though rightly recognising the fragility and incompleteness of any system, he commits to the importance of searching for coherent models for thinking about God. With their unashamedly experimental character, Crisp’s essays are fresh, lively, and worthy of wide attention. * David Fergusson, University of Cambridge, UK *
