Bringing Theology to Life

In this engaging text Darren Marks provides a refreshing introduction to Christian faith that will be of special interest to university and seminary students. Innovative in his organization, Marks explores seven key doctrines and highlights the profound interconnections among them in a way that points us beyond the mere theological formulations to the living God of the Bible:* 1 On the Doctrine of the Trinity * ?2 On the Doctrine of Sin* ?3 On the Doctrine of the Incarnation* ?4 On the Doctrine of the Holy Spirit* ?5 On the Doctrines of the Bible and Sacraments* ?6 On the Doctrine of Heaven* ?7 On the Doctrine of the Church

Engaging academic discussions of the past and the present, Marks contextualizes these doctrines and shows their meaning for the day-to-day life of a faith community. Including illustrative narrative callouts and study questions, this book ultimately aims to inspire, illuminate and encourage Christians toward a vital and relevant life of worship, discipleship and mission.Read less
