Does Calvinism Deserve Its Place in Christian Theology?
For centuries, Calvinist theology—also known as Reformed theology—has sparked debate, shaped doctrine, and influenced countless believers. But is it truly the best representation of biblical truth? In Against Calvinism, renowned theologian Roger Olson challenges the foundations of Calvinism and its implications for God’s character.
This thought-provoking book offers a compelling critique of Calvinism, drawing on Scripture, reason, tradition, and experience to present alternative theological perspectives that are historically rich and biblically faithful. Olson tackles key questions surrounding the rise of “New Calvinism,” a movement embraced by many of today’s young, passionate evangelicals, known as the "young, restless, Reformed."
