Combining analytic clarity, doctrinal substance, and historical depth, this volume provides an introduction to this vital conversation for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as a connected argument of interest to specialists in both disciplines.

In the ancient conversation between Western philosophy and Christian theology, powerful contemporary voices are arguing for monologue rather than dialogue. Instead of these two disciplines learning from and mutually informing each other, both philosophers and theologians are increasingly disconnected from, and thus unable to hear, what the other is saying, especially in Anglo-American scholarship. Some Christian philosophers are now found claiming methodological authority over doctrine, while some Christian theologians even deny that philosophy has its own integrity as a separate discipline. Against these trends, David Brown has argued over the past thirty years that philosophy and theology are both necessary in order to grapple with the reality of divine mystery and Christian faith. Neither discipline can be reduced to the other, and each has its own contribution to make for a full understanding of what Brown describes as 'a single vision' of God. In this volume, Brown addresses some key topics in philosophical theology, including the created order, experience and revelation, incarnation and redemption, and heaven and our communal destiny. Combining analytic clarity, doctrinal substance, and historical depth, this volume exemplifies Brown's project of truly integrating philosophy and theology. It thus provides an ideal introduction to this vital conversation for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as a connected argument of interest to specialists in both disciplines.

'God in a Single Vision provides a breathtaking overview of the work of one of the most adventurous and versatile thinkers of an era. David Brown's intellectual creativity combines with his ability to deploy insights from multiple disciplines to make even the most familiar topics seem fresh and full of interest. This convenient volume displays the range of Brown's interests and makes his work accessible to a new generation of scholars.' - Victoria S. Harrison, University of Glasgow, UK 'It is impossible to do justice to this collection of essays in a brief review, but there is something here to stimulate and challenge every reflective reader? a more or less complete theological vision, as indicated by the title, is presented' - Adrian Roberts in The Reader 'The book as a whole is characterized by the eirenic, non-combative stance we have come to expect from Brown (though he says clearly what he disagrees with) and can be recommended as a thoughtful and often original contribution which challenges many current theological clichés.' - Timothy Gorringe in Theology 'God in a Single Vision serves as a helpful introduction to Brown's paradigm, as well as a solid contribution for those interested in the various intersections between philosophy (particularly of an analytic persuasion) and Christian theology.' - Joel Mayward in Transpositions 'A Renaissance man in a time of ever-growing specialisation, Brown's work impresses in scope, research, energy and erudition... His knowledge is breath-taking.' - Gesa E. Thiessen in New Blackfriars 'Editors Christopher R. Brewer and Robert MacSwain have performed a worthy task in gathering some of philosopher and theologian David Brown's most important essays into a single volume.' -Benjamin Schewel in Reading Religion
