Everyone is a Theologian
Theology sounds like something reserved for academics and brainiacs. But it's not! Theology means "words about God". So if you talk about God (or even just think about God!), you're a theologian. The real question is: How do we do theology well?
From Series: "Theology for the Rest of Us"
Mention “theology” and watch everyone shrink back in their chairs. Words like Trinity, Sovereignty and Eschatology scare us away from asking good questions about God, about faith and Christianity. But that’s not how it’s supposed to be! We all talk about God. We’re all theologians, whether we realize it or not. In this class, we’ll rescue theology from the ivory tower. Theology should invite us to know God better

Every day, our world gets smaller.
Today more than ever, we’re constantly in contact with people who don’t believe the same things we do. How can a person who follows Jesus have healthy, respectful and loving conversations with people of other religions? What can a Christian and a Muslim talk about? What about Buddhist or Hindus? Atheists or Mormons?
In this class, we’ll explore the basic structure, beliefs and practices of other religions. We’ll learn where they overlap with Christianity, and what the important differences are.
In the end, we’ll be more confident of our own faith, and more able to engage those of other religions with love and grace.
