INTRODUCTION TO CHRISTIAN THEOLOGY (Sept 2020)
Yes, it’s a class about theology. Don’t shrink back! Theology is what we do every Sunday. Be informed that the word theology comes from two Greek roots: theos, which means “God,” and logos, which means “study or reason.” Therefore, theology in its simplest terms is a discipline that studies God. This is what we do in a worship service as we listen to and engage in the Word of God. With this study, set a foundation for your understanding of God and grow your faith in God.
