Looking to end the divisive conflict that has raged between Christians who attack each other either as "liberals" or as "fundamentalists," Newbigin here gives a historical account of the roots of this conflict in order to begin laying the foundation for a middle ground that will benefit the Christian faith as a whole. What results is a perspective that allows Christians to confidently affirm the gospel as public truth in our pluralistic world.

This British theologian and missionary is best known for his foundational contributions to missiology and ecclesiology. His extensive work, shaped by years of missionary service in India, laid the groundwork for the contemporary missional church movement. He explored a wide range of theological topics and engaged deeply with ecumenical dialogue. Newbigin's stature and the breadth of his scholarship are considered comparable to the "Fathers of the Church."
