Summary:
This book is a guide for your journey into the ministry. In Exploring Theology, Elaine A. Robinson introduces readers to the study of theology as a central task of all Christians and one that deserves careful and consistent attention. Following a lively examination of what theology is and how we do it, Robinson provides a basic map of the major doctrines of the faith and asks readers to consider their own beliefs. She invites readers to think of theology as a stream into which we enter and which carries us deeper into the vast ocean that is the fullness of God. - Back cover.
