Creed Without Chaos

Dorothy Sayers has been called the "the most significant female British Christian intellectual of the twentieth century." A contemporary of C. S. Lewis, she possessed keen theological sense, tremendous writing skill, and deep concern about how ordinary people understand Christian life. CREED WITHOUT CHAOS provides a cogent argument for Sayers's continuing relevance for today's church. This well-researched book examines Sayers's role as a lay theologian in clarifying matters of dogma for common consumption and in relating theological themes to everyday life.  
  
Laura Simmons performs a service for theology students and interested laypeople alike by providing a theological, rather than a literary, introduction to Sayers's writings. The book also includes several detailed appendices for those interested in further study. 224 pages, from Baker.Read less
