Editorial Reviews
Review
–Brian Flanagan, Marymount University

From the Bible to bioethics, in Christian Thought and Practice, Natalie Kertes Weaver offers an engaging tour of discovery through the historical highlights, key debates, and current issues of Christian theology. This is an inclusive, accessible text written by a teacher who knows her students!
–Edward P. Hahnenberg, PhD

In Christian Thought and Practice, Natalie Kertes Weaver provides undergraduate students with an excellent introduction to Christian theology and ecclesial life. It is ecumenically sensitive and pedagogically astute. It is concise but comprehensive. It strikes a fine balance between the descriptive and the normative styles. The questions for reflection at the end of each chapter, the tables, glossary, and other helps for the student make this book very student friendly. Only a master teacher could pack so much into such a small volume! As a professor who is always seeking but rarely finding the perfect introductory theology textbook, reading Christian Thought and Practice gave me a “eureka” (“I found it!”) sensation. I recommend Weaver’s book highly.

This clear and comprehensive “primer” is an ideal text for an “Introduction to Christianity” course. But it is far more than that. In Christian Thought and Practice, Natalie Kertes Weaver provides a readable guide to anyone seeking a balanced description of the history, beliefs, and practices of Christianity. Written by an accomplished teacher, it presumes no background knowledge on the part of the reader, but only a willingness to understand how Christianity today came to be what it is–in all its diversity. A remarkable achievement.
