__Restless for rootedness, many Christians are abandoning Protestantism altogether.__

Many evangelicals today are aching for theological rootedness often found in other Christian traditions. Modern evangelicalism is not known for drawing from church history to inform views on the Christian life, which can lead to a "me and my Bible" approach to theology. But this book aims to show how Protestantism offers the theological depth so many desire without the need for abandoning a distinctly evangelical identity.

By focusing on particular doctrines and neglected theologians, this book shows how evangelicals can draw from the past to meet the challenges of the present.

This book aims to set forth a vision for theological retrieval, demonstrating through specific doctrines how engaging historical theology can enrich and strengthen the church today—without abandoning a Protestant identity.

\["For evangelicals seeking deeper theological roots", "Addresses the lack of historical context in modern faith", "You will strengthen your faith without losing your identity"\]

This book helps evangelicals find theological depth in tradition.
