Has anyone read "The Trinity" by Roger Olsen and Christopher Hall?

It's a quick read, paperback, but they really pack a lot in it. Very good. And written in simple language (unlike most other books on the Trinity). If you don't have it, for sure get it. I liked it.

Thanks, Tom. All this talk about the Trinity has gotten me to readin' up on it. I'm just about to start God For Us and this one looked like it was good. I like Olsen's Story of Christians Theology and his positive attitude towards open theism.

Let me know how you get along with LaCugna's "God for Us." It's a shame that she died (taught at Notre Dame) at 44 (cancer).

Tom: I just got "God For Us," and it looks good. I was wondering: have you read Rahner's The Trinity?
Oh I agree. Olson/Hall's book is small but excellant.

I just re-read though this too:


It covers a sweep of history, and makes some good comparisions.

Blessings!
