A Little Book for New Theologians

Why and How to Study Theology

De: Kelly M. Kapic

Narrado por: Adam Verner

Whenever we read, think, hear, or say anything about God, we are doing theology. Yet theology isn't just a matter of what we think. It affects who we are. In the tradition of Helmut Thielicke's A Little Exercise for Young Theologians, Kelly Kapic offers a concise introduction to the study of theology for newcomers to the field.

He highlights the value and importance of theological study and explains its unique nature as a serious discipline. Not only concerned with content and method, Kapic explores the skills, attitudes, and spiritual practices needed by those who take up the discipline.

This brief, clear, and lively primer draws out the relevance of theology for Christian life, worship, mission, witness, and more. "Theology is about life," writes Kapic. "It is not a conversation our souls can afford to avoid."

Remarkable

This deeply moving little book repeatedly demonstrates the need for one's sanctification to accompany one's pursuit of theology. So grateful this was assigned seminary reading both for RTS as well as DTS. What a privilege it would be to one day meet the author.

Holy Spirit guided

A Divinely given guidance to those seeking His truth. Not restrictive to opinionated partialism, but a totalism approach to learning and acknowledging the Trinity. I've recieved more enlightenment in how to fully experience God through this book. A true Spiritual gift.

Perfect pace, easy to follow.

A great companion book when starting off on the path to theology. I listened to it all the way through the first time, now it’s time to slow it down and take a few notes.

Good read

“Christian theology is an active response to the revelation of God in Jesus Christ, whereby the believer, in the power of the Holy Spirit, subordinate to the testimonies of the prophets and apostles, as recorded in the Scriptures, and in communion with the Saints, wrestles with, and rests in the mysteries of God, his work and his world.” (Kapic 121)
