Summary: A succinctly written study of lessons already learned
Review: Listening To The Past: The Place Of Tradition In Theology by Stephen R. Holmes (Lecturer in Christian Doctrine at King's College, London and Senior Researcher in Mission and Theology at the Bible Society) comprehensively examines the doctrine of communion of saints, bringing together wisdom concerning atonement, free will, theology, politics, and the importance of listening to and learning from tradition and history. Each individual chapter focuses on a different aspect of modern-day questions and conundrums involving God and faith, in a succinctly written study of lessons already learned throughout the centuries. Listening To The Past is especially recommended for non-specialist general readers with an interest in Christian Doctrine & Theology.
