"Over the past two decades an ecumenical reengagement with classical trinitarian theology has gathered pace. This revival moves powerfully beyond stale oppositions of East and West, and refutes accusations of classical Christian theology's failure. This is the true trinitarian 'revival,' and here we see its latest fruit. Keith Johnson's wonderful book brings the mighty voice of Augustine into debates about the theology of religions, and has ramifications for evangelical theologians everywhere. Johnson offers a penetrating critique of the manner in which the Trinity has been used as a theological source for considering the diversity of religions, and then he very helpfully places this whole discussion within the far wider context of debate over classical trinitarian doctrine. The game has been changed."

"Keith Johnson's clearly written and theologically incisive Rethinking the Trinity and Religious Pluralism makes a critical contribution to Christian dogmatics on at least three fronts: It provides an invaluable resource for thinking about the relationship between two of contemporary theology's most important topics, the doctrine of the Trinity and the reality of religious pluralism. It introduces readers to the most up-to-date scholarship on the oft-misunderstood and oft-maligned Augustine of Hippo. And it serves as a model of evangelical ressourcement, exhibiting a loving attention to the theological riches of the past for the sake of theological renewal in the present."

"Following the turn to trinitarian theology, a cadre of evangelical theologians is making a substantial contribution to the doctrine of the Trinity. With this book, Keith Johnson distinguishes himself as a significant member of this important group. Drawing upon the historical resource of Augustine's formulation of the doctrine to address and assess current appeals to the Trinity as grounding for a theology of religions, Johnson is exemplary in terms of evaluative methodology and fairness as he sounds a cautionary note to those who would claim a trinitarian foundation for their theological proposals. I highly recommend this work!"

"Rethinking the Trinity and Religious Pluralism has two considerable merits. The first is clear and eloquent summary of recent advances in understanding Augustine's trinitarian doctrine. The second is application of that doctrine to a creative proposal in the sphere of the Christian theology of religions. Either merit would make the book worthwhile; to have both together is to have something truly excellent."

"In this carefully researched and clearly written book, Keith Johnson explores how the doctrine of the Trinity has been developed by some leading voices in the theology of religions. Johnson's trenchant critique of some current approaches and his reaffirmation of the importance of trinitarian theology for a theology of religions make this a very significant contribution to ongoing debates over the relation between Christian commitments and other religions."

"Lucidly written and deftly argued, Keith Johnson's book advances an urgently needed Augustinian analysis and critique of recent attempts at a 'trinitarian' foundation of religious pluralism. Johnson convincingly demonstrates that these attempts end at best in theological cul-de-sacs, and adds on top an urgently needed rebuttal of recent Protestant critiques of Augustine's theology of the Trinity. This Augustinian assessment is a welcome witness to the ongoing resourcefulness and relevance of Augustine for contemporary trinitarian theology."
