Summary
Theology does not exist in a vacuum. Our theology is influenced by the culture in which we live, yet it can have unexpected effects on the lives of Christians who live thousands of miles away, a point that emerges clearly throughout this book. Arabic Christian Theology invites readers to listen to seven leading Arabic evangelical theologians apply theological thinking to critical issues for Christians living as minorities in a twenty-first-century Muslim context. Western readers may find many of their assumptions challenged as they see how respected Christian thinkers from a very different context address issues of biblical interpretation, national and international politics, culture, and gender.
