In this course Roger Olson thematically traces the contours of Christian belief down through the ages, revealing a pattern of both unity and diversity. He finds a consensus of teaching that is both unitive and able to incorporate a faithful diversity when not forced into the molds of false either-or alternatives.

The mosaic that emerges from Olson's work displays a mediating evangelical theology that is irenic in spirit and tone. Olson masterfully sketches out the contours of the Great Tradition of the Christian faith with simplicity while avoiding oversimplification.

This course is based on Dr. Olson's book The Mosaic of Christian Belief (InterVarsity Press) available for purchase at ivpress.com or at Amazon.com.
