Review Quotes:
"John Owen is famously difficult, demanding and profound. He continues to inspire theological refection of the highest order. Dr. Kieser has written a first-rate study that will greatly assist anyone interested in trinitarian orthodoxy from a traditional Reformed point of view." --George Hunsinger, Princeton Theological Seminary, USA
"Building on his ground-breaking earlier publications, this book establishes Ty Kieser as one of the most important voices in John Owen scholarship - and shows how early modern Protestant scholastic sources can offer intellectually satisfying and pastorally sensitive wisdom in modern theological debates." --Crawford Gribben, Queen's University Belfast, UK "This book insightfully nuances John Owen's contemporary Christological legacy, articulates classically Reformed Christology, and analyzes a promising but underdeveloped Christological category-agency. Interacting with Ty Kieser's work has been very formative for my own. Highly recommended!" --Daniel J. Treier, Wheaton College, USA "Kieser offers a thorough and cogent account of Owen's Christology, correcting a number of misunderstandings in the process. In addition he demonstrates that a classical and Reformed approach to Christological agency has much to offer in current conversations about Christology and the doctrine of God. As such this volume makes a welcome contribution both to historical theology and to contemporary systematics." --Suzanne McDonald, Western Theological Seminary, USA "Ty Kieser has provided us an illuminating and much needed exploration of agency in John Owen's theology, enabling us to better understand not only Owen's contributions, but also how they fit into both classical Reformed approaches and contemporary debates." --Kelly M. Kapic, Covenant College, USA "This study advances Owen's research further because it uncovers an aspect of his Christology that stimulates ongoing inquiry. In short: this is an excellent study!" --Theologia Reformata
