Synopsis

What exactly is Christian thought? And why should we be bothered about its history? Jonathan Hill argues that studying the history of Christian thought is both important and fascinating. For Christians, it helps in understanding why Christianity teaches the things that it does. For those who are not particularly religious, it is of interest because Christianity has played such a key part in the development of Western civilization. People like Augustine, Aquinas and Luther have shaped the very fabric of modern society. The History of Christian Thought introduces the reader to the most influential theologians of Christian faith, placing them in their historical context, bringing them to life as people and explaining the key points of their thought.
