Download or read book Beacon Dictionary of Theology written by Richard S. Taylor and published by Beacon Hill Press. This book was released on 1983 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ground covered in the following 954 articles is as comprehensive as would be covered by a standard systematic theology. The difference is that the subject matter is divided up into small units and arranged alphabetically for easy reference. Readers with some degree of expertise in these matters will note that this dictionary represents a very broad definition of theology. As a consequence, many topics are discussed which might be expected to be found in other kinds of dictionaries. This dictionary is unabashedly evangelical and just as unabashedly Wesleyan. - Preface.
