Product Description

The introduction of this burgeoning classic into paperback and the Landmarks in Christian Scholarship collection is much welcomed. Kevin Vanhoozer's Is There Meaning in this Text is the seminal contribution of Evangelical scholarship to the field of Hermeneutics. Vanhoozer lucidly and directly critiques trends in postmodern literary criticism (deconstruction) and thinkers (Ricoeur, Fish), while providing Evangelicals with a critical methodology upon which "texts"--and most especially biblical texts--can be confidently interpreted.

Publisher's Description

Do you think the twelve apostles include Sneezy, Sleepy, and Dopey? Genesis is an English rock band? Bread and wine is the first course? You need Christianity for Blockheads---the user-friendly guide to making this mysterious faith called Christianity easier to understand. In witty Blockheads tradition, this latest book in the series unites a fun, clear, easy-reading style with a thorough introduction and exploration into Christian theology. Covering all the must-know teachings of the Christian faith and tying each one to key Bible passages, the concise, catchy, jargon-free style will appeal to a broad range of readers. You don't have to be a theologian to navigate the territory of Christian belief, but it helps to have a map. Here it is. Both Christians and curious non-Christians looking for clear and reliable explanations of the Christian faith will find them inside. Christianity for Blockheads helps you: * Make sense of key Bible passages * Discover what well-known scholars say about the main tenets of Christianity * Learn interesting facts and insights on particular biblical themes * Familiarize yourself with the Christian perspective on hot issues such as the end times, baptism, and speaking in tongues * Dig deeper into resources for further study * Walk the walk by demonstrating how the Christian message applies to contemporary living
