Thirteen Reformed scholars take on
postmodern evangelicals and provide a
solid, biblical critique of their ideas.
While self-described “post-conservative
evangelicals” enjoy increasing
influence in the evangelical world,
they represent a significant challenge
to biblical faith. Popularizers like
Brian McLaren (of Emergent Church fame)
trade on the work of scholars like Stan
Grenz, John Franke, and Roger Olson,
whose “innovations” represent a major
makeover of traditional and historic
evangelical theology. This is
especially the case with the doctrines
of Scripture, the atonement, and the
character of God—all of which stand at
the center of evangelical Christianity.
In Reforming or Conforming?, scholars
such as John Bolt, Scott Clark, Paul
Helm, and Paul Helseth join editors
Gary Johnson and Ron Gleason in
analyzing and critiquing the ideas of
those who promote postmodernism as a
positive force in theology. Pastors,
laymen, and college students will find
this book a helpful resource in
understanding and refuting postmodern
evangelicalism. Includes a foreword by
David F. Wells.
