In Justification and the Churches, Gerald Hiestand reveals the pastoral and soteriological logic shaping the doctrine of justification across the Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox traditions.As Hiestand explores each tradition's distinct pastoral questions, he reveals how the respective answers shape their doctrinal conclusions. Through a careful historical, biblical, and theological analysis, he invites readers to learn from each perspective, showing that "different answers to different questions" fosters unity rather than division.Ideal for professors, students, and pastors, this book illuminates varying approaches to the doctrine of justification, offering fresh insights into how these traditions enrich one another.
