description: What does it mean to profess the faith as North American Christians at the end of the second millennium? What is Christian theology as consciously crafted in light of the distinctive history, culture, and experience of North America? Hall marshalls doctrinal resources for a critical, creative response that stresses God's necessary involvement in an unfinished, dynamic, suffering world.Douglas Hall looks to the heart of Christian faith—its teaching about God, Creatures, and Christ—to articulate a critical and creative response to contemporary culture. The core of Hall's trilogy, Professing the Faith is a fresh and frank engagement of the North American context by one of the continent's finest religious thinkers.
