The Trinity among the Nations: The Doctrine of God in the Majority World (Majority World Theology

by Gene L. Green (Editor), Stephen T. Pardue (Editor), Khiok-Khng Yeo (Editor)

Second volume of an exciting new series exploring global theology

Though the global center of Christianity has been shifting south and east over the past few decades, very few  theological  resources have dealt with the seismic changes afoot. The Majority World Theology series seeks to remedy that lack by gathering well-regarded Christian thinkers from around the world to discuss the significance of Christian teaching in their respective contexts.

The Trinity among the Nations  focuses on Christian understandings of the character and work of God in various contexts. The contributors highlight global trends in trinitarian theology in relation to historic Christian confessions, especially the Nicene Creed, and draw out the rich implications of the doctrine of God for the church and Christian living today.

Reviews

[Edwin David · Rating 4 out of 5]

The Trinity Among the Nations is an excellent book full of fascinating insights about the Trinity from Latin American, Native North American, African and Asian scholars. They develop questions about the Trinity from their own perspectives and by examining Scripture develop new insights. However, those who are concerned for the primacy of orthodox theology should not be worried, each of the authors continually returns to both Scripture and the classic trinitarian formulations of the Church to ensure that what they are saying is not heterodox.
