Christianity

Rating:
Summary: The best one volume introduction to Christianity.
Review: Professor Ward of Oxford University has done a remarkable job of showing the variety of Christian beliefs in relation to its main doctrines such as incarnation, salvation etc. in a very clear, objective and readable way. I highly recommend it as possibly the best guide to the subject.

Summary: A well-paced and lucid introduction to Christianity
Review: Ward's achievement suceeds in being clear and simple, concise, and demonstrates well the plurality present within Christianity. He achieves a fairly balanced presentation of a Christianity full of different views which are simultaneously connected to one another in a symbiotic theological and historical relation. Though sometimes his theological preferences surface, this is often subtle and often his biases remained fairly submerged. Beginners will find this book a helpful introduction to the Christian faith that is neither pendantic nor emotional blibber blabber. I highly recommend this to any one, believer or not, who is interested in exploring the vistas of Christian dogma.
