Laying the Foundation for a Classical Christian Theology
Good theology requires a firm foundation. But how can we lay a good foundation in our theological work? Moreover, what is theology and how does one do theology?
As the first volume in the Pillars of Christian Dogmatics series, The Cathedral of Theology is a work of prolegomena to establish principles for theology. This book takes an exegetical, historical, philosophical, and doctrinal approach to explore:
- what theology is
- the necessary virtues for doing theology
- the relationship between God's knowledge and human knowledge
- revelation, both natural and supernatural
- the relationship between faith and reason
- the relationship of metaphysics to theology
- principles of biblical interpretation
- how to organize theology
- the covenantal context for theology
- the use of imagination
- the boundaries of doctrinal truth and error
- the pursuit of beauty
Using the metaphor of a cathedral, Fesko argues for the supreme importance of attending to the basis of the building before advancing the further work of building out walls, windows, and ceilings. With such topics in hand, his book offers the blueprint, prepares the site, and lays the foundation for a beautiful and lasting theological edifice.
The Cathedral of Theology serves as an ideal theology textbook for students and also stands as a rich resource for scholars seeking to deepen their understanding of the foundational structures and enduring beauty of theological study.
About the Series

Featuring field-leading scholars, each volume offers an intensive study of key topics in theology using exegetical, historical, philosophical, and doctrinal resources, while simultaneously embodying the interpretive commitments exhibited across the Great Tradition.
