- Title
The Essentials of Christian Thought: Seeing Reality Through the Biblical Story.
- Authors
Peterson, Paul Silas
- Abstract
Operating in the postliberal tradition of Protestant philosophical theology, which seeks to overcome the objective starting point of Enlightenment-era philosophy of religion, Olson uncovers the I implied metaphysics i of the Biblical stories, the ultimate reality which 'lies underneath and undergirds as a foundation the truths explicitly revealed in the Bible' (p. 14). Yet Olson moves in another direction when he emphasizes Biblical theology as essential to the philosophy of religion. Olson's work is a very approachable introduction to the contemporary Christian theological debates about theistic and Christian philosophy of religion.
