Christianity and Barthianism

Rating:
Summary: An excellent analysis from a conservative perspective
Review:

Among conservative theologians, no other has understood so well or written so extensively about the man whom many consider to be the top theological mind of the twentieth century. This book is particularly useful for those in the Reformed and Presbyterian community that want to gain a better understanding of Barth and his impact on the modern church. Such an understanding is vitally important for those who hold to the Reformed faith, as Barth more than any other contributed specifically to the modernization movement that dramatically altered the face of the reformed churches in America in the early part of this century.

Like most of Van Til's work, the book is somewhat technical and difficult at points to comprehend, but the small amount of effort expended in comprehending this work will yield a substantially greater understanding and appreciation for it in the end.
