Rating: Unrated
Cornelius Plantinga is a seminary president, yet is unpretentious; he is a learned academic, yet has an uncanny ability to do theology as if it were poetry. This slender book is an introduction to the Christian worldview and the biblical themes of Creation, Fall, and Redemption. He describes how a Christian’s vocation in the world is to be shaped by a longing and hope for “shalom,” and the rich imagery he uses to explain this Hebrew concept is soul-moving. This is Plantinga at his finest.
