An Introduction to Ecclesiology

A Christian’s understanding of God is crucial to how he or she views everything else. In The Doctrine of God: A Global Introduction, Veli-Matti Kärkkäinen surveys what the church has traditionally thought about God. He also examines what the church today, both in North America and around the world, thinks about God and shows how the insights of Christians from various cultures can enrich an understanding of God. Kärkkäinen’s book will reward pastors and laypeople with a much fuller understanding of who God is and how we can enter into a deeper relationship with him.
