Ebook: The Trinitarian Theology of Stanley J. Grenz

Exploring one of the most important and controversial figures in recent evangelical theology, this book provides an exhaustive examination of the core elements of Stanley Grenz's work. Amidst the critique that Grenz received during his lifetime, Jason Sexton locates the categorical aims for his re-imagining of evangelical theology as overtly Trinitarian. The book uncovers the impact of the theology of Wolfhart Pannenberg, his doctoral supervisor, upon his thought, and chronicles the development of a Trinitarian methodology. There is also consideration given to how Grenz's depiction of the Trinity in the Imago Dei concept shaped his reading of scripture. By examining how Grenz's Trinitarian perspective informed his theology and theological ethics, Sexton ultimately concludes that Grenz was not only a deeply conservative and thoroughly Trinitarian evangelical theologian, but that he was also arguably the premier evangelical theologian of his generation.
