Synopsis

Generally acknowledged as one of the greatest thinkers of the nineteenth century, Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard (18131855) has also often been named the father of existentialism, as twentieth-century Christian existentialism appropriated his insights for theology and ethics, stressing human experience, freedom, and the commitment of faith. Contemporary theology can hardly be understood without reading him. Elmer H. Duncan unveils a vivid portrait of a sincere Christian becomer who believed Christianity is not a doctrine to be learned but a life to be lived a man whose primary objective was to help others to be ""becoming"" Christians also. The Makers of the Modern Theological Mind series remains a must-read for anyone eager to understand these theologians and their impact on todays church.|Generally acknowledged as one of the greatest thinkers of the nineteenth century, Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard (18131855) has also often been named the father of existentialism, as twentieth-century Christian existentialism appropriated his insights for theology and ethics, stressing human experience, freedom, and the commitment of faith.
