The Analogy of Faith: The Quest for God's Speakability Archie Spencer IVP Academic; October 18, 2015

If God is transcendent, how can human beings speak meaningfully about him? In the twentieth century, Karl Barth, Erich Przywara, Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Eberhard Jüngel explored this question in new and controversial ways that continue to shape contemporary debates in theology. In The Analogy of Faith: The Quest for God's Speakability, Archie Spencer—Visiting Associate Professor of Theology at Regent College for the 2015-2016 academic year—examines the problem of analogy in its ancient, medieval, and modern forms.
