and its relationship to Christian faith. He
shows how Owen creatively drew upon an
ecumenical dogmatic and metaphysical
heritage to restate and refine a traditional
Reformed approach to scripture’s divine

Owen shares a growing concern to ground
Christian faith in objective evidence, all-thewhile ensuring that its ultimate foundation
lies in the irresistible authority and
truthfulness of God, mediated “in and by”
the inspired text of scripture.
