Carl Braatens memoirs tell the story of his life as a theologian, from his early years as a missionary kid in Madagascar to his years of study at the universities of Paris, Harvard, Heidelberg, and Oxford to his decades of teaching.
Throughout the book, he delves into the many theological movements, controversies, and personalities that shaped his thinking and writing.
Braatens fight for the faith is reflected in his theological work spoken and written that tangles with the isms of the surrounding culture of American religion.
Because of Christ is more than simply a biography; it is a chronicle of the chief theological conflicts of the twentieth century that put the integrity of the gospel to the test.
