Renaissance theology

Renaissance theology refers to the study and interpretation of Christian beliefs during the Renaissance period (14th-17th centuries). It was marked by a renewed interest in classical texts, leading scholars to re-examine religious doctrines, Scripture, and church practices with greater emphasis on human experience and reason. This period fostered debates about faith, salvation, and the role of the individual in religion, laying the groundwork for later reform movements. Overall, Renaissance theology balanced traditional Christian teachings with new intellectual approaches, encouraging a more personal and critical engagement with faith.
