FOR MANY CHRISTIANS THEOLOGY IS SOMETHING ALIEN, overly intellectual and really not that appealing. Even seminary students have been known to balk at taking a course on theology. Yet theology--most simply, is the knowledge of God-it is really very essential to the life and health of the church. This introduction reflects the heart of Dr. Perry, who cares deeply about ordinary Christians knowing, and understanding what theology is, and how to use the tools this study of theology affords. Understanding that every believer, regardless of education (or lack there-of) is truly a theologian, the study of theology can be encouraging and very satisfying. This book is written in a clear, concise, easily understood style, which is ideal for church study groups and/or individual Christians who desire to strengthen their understanding, belief and commitment by coming to know God more fully.
