Tradition and the Modern World

Meer over het boek

The book presents five insightful essays by B. A. Gerrish that challenge the notion of a complete break from Reformation heritage in nineteenth-century liberal Protestantism. Gerrish argues that key figures of this era sought to evolve traditional doctrines while maintaining loyalty to their roots, advocating for development instead of outright rejection or mere repetition. Through elegant writing, the author explores the creative interplay between tradition and innovation within Protestant thought during this pivotal century.
