Karl Barth

June 29, 2008

[pronounced “bart”]

A 20th century Swiss theologian who followed in the Reformed tradition. Considered by some as the father of neo-orthodoxy, he was an extreme opponent of 19th century liberalism and modernism. His influence on modern theological thought is nearly beyond compare. Thought by many to be the greatest theologian of the 20th century, Barth went on to compile a 14-volume set known as “Barth’s Church Dogmatics.”Don’t miss the Karl Barth blog conference.
