Beth Felker Jones. Practicing Christian Doctrine: An Introduction to Thinking and Living Theologically. Grand Rapids, Mich.: Baker Academic, 2014. 256 pages (original) (raw)

This book review discusses Brian Gregor's work, emphasizing Bonhoeffer's philosophy of self transformed by the cross. It critiques modern conceptions of self, arguing they are egocentric and disconnected, and contrasts them with a more relational understanding through the lens of Christian theology. The review also examines the dialogue between Bonhoeffer and Ricoeur and offers insights into the implications for understanding faith in a secular age, while expressing some concerns about the limited scope of Taylor's A Secular Age in addressing global perspectives.
