Features & Benefits
- Protestant evangelicalism is in crisis and it has become increasingly difficult for Protestants to identify what counts as distinctively Protestant, much less what counts as evangelical
- A common complaint about Protestant evangelicalism is its apparent disconnect from ancient Christianity
- Ken Stewart argues that the evangelical tradition in fact has a much healthier track record of interacting with Christian antiquity than it is usually given credit for
- He explores areas of positive engagement such as the Lord's Supper and biblical interpretation, as well as areas that raise concerns, such as monasticism
- Christian antiquity is the heritage of all orthodox Christians, and evangelicals have the resources in their history to claim their place at the ecumenical table.
