What Is The Role Of Canon And Community Respectively When It Comes To Understanding And Articulating Christian Doctrine? Should The Church Be The Doctrinal Arbiter In The Twenty-first Century? In Canonical Theology John Peckham Tackles This Complex, Ongoing Discussion By Shedding Light On Issues Surrounding The Biblical Canon And The Role Of The Community For Theology And Practice.
