'Fifty Key Christian Thinkers' provides information and debate on the lives and work of 50 significant Christian theologians. It offers an overview of Christian theology from the emergence of the faith 2000 years ago to the present.

Exploring a diverse range of themes, this collection of essays delves into Christology, the doctrine of God, human rights, and Christian spirituality. Written between 2005 and 2014 for various audiences across the Atlantic, the essays reflect the liberal tradition of theology. Some pieces are previously published, while others are new contributions. Additionally, the author includes a biographical essay and a personal bibliography, enriching the context and understanding of the works presented.

Focusing on the Christian understanding of God, this book presents a model for intercultural Christian theology that bridges theology with various cultural activities, including politics, literature, and the natural sciences. It examines the interplay between theology and social sub-cultures, using diverse examples to foster dialogue. By linking Christian theology with human rights, it positions religion as a constructive force in addressing global conflicts, advocating for a collaborative approach rather than the triumphalist theologies of the past.
