Thomas C. Oden

Thomas C. Oden was an American Methodist theologian of the late twentieth and early twenty first century, rooted in classical Christian orthodoxy and evangelical renewal.

He is best known for his systematic work Classic Christianity and for his leadership in the Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture series, which sought to recover the exegetical riches of the early church for contemporary preaching and teaching. His writing spans pastoral theology, doctrinal retrieval, and spiritual formation, consistently urging the church to listen again to the consensus of the fathers.

Oden continues to be valued for his call to theological stability in an age of fragmentation. He writes with clarity and conviction, drawing pastors and students back to the great tradition and encouraging confidence in historic Christian belief.
