Originally published in 1978, The Christian Story examines in an introductory manner the Basic Christian doctrines of God, the Fall, Covenant, Christ, The Church, Salvation, and Consummation. Gabriel Fackre interprets these basic beliefs as "chapters in the biography of God'. This Revised Edition reflects recent theological dialogue as well as the autor's own areas of study in recent years: Fackre has included a new section on narrative theologt in general, an expanded discussion of the role of Scripture in theology, and a revised treatment of eschatology. The updated bibliography and the appendix with study guides increase the usefulness of this already popular introduction to the rediments of the Christian Faith.
