Seven Challenges That Shaped the New Testament

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“With engaging and accessible style, Spencer provides an excellent introduction to seven interrelated challenges that have confronted Christians over the centuries. Through bringing New Testament texts into conversation with each other and with an eye to the cognitive and emotional upheaval early Christians likely experienced, Spencer provides an honest account of tensions within Christianity. This book does not seek to resolve these tensions but allows early Christian faith, love, and hope to speak into them.”
