Roots that Refresh: A Celebration of Reformation Spirituality

by Alister McGrath (Author)

Synopsis

The revised edition of this text, with a new foreword, celebrates Reformation spirituality, with an emphasis on the centrality of the Cross, the impact of grace, the fruitfulness of discipline and the affirmation of the laity as the people of God. All these precepts are contained in Reformation spirituality, and the author here explains their meaning and value, urging modern Christians to rediscover the roots of their religion. He believes that the ideas and values of the past can have a great impact on the present and on the future.
