Christian Faith: An Introduction to the Study of the Faith

Front Cover
0 Reviews
Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing, Jan 1, 2002 - Religion - 596 pages
In today's secular world, the Christian faith is viewed as only one aspect of what could be called "religious life." Acknowledging this, Hendrikus Berkhof begins this thought-provoking study with a sketch of religion and faith in general before narrowing it down to a discussion of the specific place of Christian faith in all of reality.
