The second volume in ‘Deep Church’ addresses tradition and authority in the Early Church and its implications for evangelicalism

The ‘Deep Church’ series is about retrieving from the Church’s past as we look to the Church's future. This volume lays some groundwork for the series by examining the concept of tradition - its definition, origin and components.

Williams addresses tradition and authority in the Early Church and discusses the relationship between tradition and the Protestant ‘traditions’ of sola scriptura and sola fide. Finally, he examines examples of how tradition was used in the early church, including confessions of faith, catecheses, The Rule of Faith, commentaries, theological hymnody and theological works.
