Wheaton Theology Conference Series
Exploring Theology for the Good of the Church
The Wheaton Theology Conference Series gathers expert theological scholarship from past Wheaton Theology Conferences, delivering insights that connect academic scholarship with the contemporary life of the church. Each volume recaps a specific conference, including contributions from leading voices and exploring both longstanding and emerging questions within the Christian tradition.

These books serve as valuable resources for students, pastors, scholars, and anyone who seeks thoughtful engagement in theological conversation.
The Wheaton Theology Conference Series features:
- Contributions from a wide range of expert scholars
- Deep dives into specific theological topics
- Preservation of the rich tradition of Wheaton College's theology conferences
Praise for the Books in the Series
"If the test of a good story is the kind of person it shapes, then we can only hope that Marilynne Robinson continues to write her stories. Reading her stories makes one want to be more truly alive. They also, as it happens, make one curious to read her nonfiction. In reading both novels and essays, we are introduced to a theologically dynamic vision of the world. This marvelous collection of essays [in Balm in Gilead] is a welcomed engagement by theologians with an author who demands careful—and repeated!—reading."
—W. David O. Taylor, assistant professor of theology and culture, Fuller Theological Seminary
"The Reformation was about the Word, but it was also about words—the words of the Bible especially, which in turn resounded through countless sermons, hymns, commentaries, catechisms, debates, dialogues, and public acts. The words of Scripture were not merely script or print, but event, just as the Reformation was not simply a happening, but a shattering. The essays in [The People's Book] tell that story with verve and nuance and thus help us to understand why, five hundred years later, the Reformation is still so consequential."
—Timothy George, founding dean of Beeson Divinity School of Samford University
"[The Image of God in an Image Driven Age] is a fecund collection of essays on theological anthropology. In it one can find treatments of the image of God from biblical, systematic and constructive theology, but one can also find essays that reflect on the imaging of God in the arts: in poetry and in literary criticism. Here too there is reflection on our witness to the divine image in a culture of commodification and a world where the color of one's skin has displaced the divine image in which we are all created. These explorations of the doctrine of the image of God offer readers a rich and satisfying smorgasbord of essays and art that repays careful reading and reflection."
—Oliver D. Crisp, Fuller Theological Seminary
