Reviews

"Analytic theology has quickly established itself as an important, dynamic research program in contemporary theology. But until now it has had no introductory text. Not only has Thomas McCall provided a stellar volume for just this purpose, he also makes a contribution to the theological literature by showing that analytic theology is not merely philosophical theology masquerading as systematic theology-it is a truly theological theology. This is a clear, well-written and compelling work that is sure to be of great interest to a wide readership."


"McCall's An Invitation to Analytic Christian Theology is an excellent introduction to this fairly new theological approach. For those suspicious of anything analytic, I highly recommend McCall's book for the first chapter alone. I hope that this book serves to make the analytical method more appealing, and those who use it more accepted, to ongoing contemporary and evangelical theological discussion."


"This volume rightfully reminds readers of the continuing importance of semantic clarity, logical exactitude, and philosophical proficiency in the contemporary theological endeavor."
