Humanity

Perhaps no doctrine is more urgent for today’s Christians to study than the doctrine of humanity. Nearly every cultural debate seems to hinge upon one’s theological anthropology and its significance for daily life.Humanity by John Hammett and Katie McCoy is an urgent theological study of the doctrine of humanity. The authors shed light on the philosophical, cultural, and spiritual influences that constantly challenge the dignity of human existence.

Humanity offers a fresh perspective built on four core assumptions: that humans are divine creations, that our understanding comes from our Creator's intentions, that Scripture reveals these intentions, and that living in accordance with our created nature leads to a truly fulfilling life. Whether you are a student, professor, or layperson interested in this pivotal cultural topic, this is an invaluable resource that will empower you to understand yourself in light of Scripture and engage with the pressing issues of our world today.
