The faith of the people of God;: A lay theology by John Macquarrie

The people of God itself is the starting point of the study, the primary advantage in this approach being that, while one may doubt the reality of God or Christ, One cannot deny the historical reality of the Christian community. It is around this concept of the people that the theology is expounded.
