DESCRIPTION

The assumption in much of the church is that theology is an obstacle to a vital, growing faith, not an aid to it. In fact, everyone is a theologian--"either a good one. What are the advantages of thinking intentionally about matters of theology and how they can guide, inform, and nourish our faith? As the contributors to this volume make clear, theology is for every day and every person, as all are called to be thoughtful followers of Jesus. This engaging volume will help laypeople, incoming college students, and prospective seminarians understand that vital faith is as much about our mind as it is about a warm heart.
