Alister McGrath explains how he returned to Christianity from the "distant country" of Marxism and scientific atheism and became a Christian theologian. The work offers a summary of McGrath's vision of Christian theology, focusing on the distinct role of historical theology, the importance of engaging the relation of science and faith, the need for theologians to participate in major public debates, and the significance of theological education.

In the My Theology series, the world's leading Christian thinkers explain some of the principal tenets of their theological beliefs in concise, pocket-sized books.
