Anthony C. Thiselton is professor emeritus of Christian theology at the University of Nottingham, England.
Steven L. Porter-- Biola University "At a time when many religious believers are clinging ever more tightly to their beliefs, Thiselton ably defends a positive place for doubt in Christian faith that looks forward to certainty. For Thiselton, doubt involves the humility to rethink one's position, consider viable alternatives, and thereby deepen one's faith while awaiting the certainty of the eschaton. Engaging an impressive array of contemporary and historical thinkers, Thiselton has provided rich material for serious reflection." Interpretation "Thiselton's newest contribution will be a welcome addition to the shelves of students, pastors, and other church professionals interested in the perennial question of the relationship etween doubt, faith, and certainty." Religious Studies Review "Doubt is commonly regarded as the enemy of faith, both by those who commend faith and by those who advocate skepticism. Thiselton's goal is to challenge this simplistic opposition and show that doubts and questions need not necessarily indicate lack or weakness of faith."
