Proceedings of the Los Angeles Theology Conference
This is the first volume in a series that will be published by Zondervan Academic. It is the published proceedings of the inaugural Los Angeles Theology Conference held under the auspices of the Torrey Honors Institute of Biola University with the support of Fuller Theological Seminary, in January 2013.

About Christology, Ancient & Modern: Explorations in Constructive DogmaticsChristology was the central doctrine articulated by the early church councils, and it remains the subject of vigorous theological investigation today.

In these proceeding from the first Los Angeles Theology Conference, contributors make analyze contemporary dogmatics in intentional engagement with the Christian tradition. Christology, Ancient and Modern surveys the field and articulates the sources, norms, and criteria for constructive theological work in Christology. |
