Who should study theology? The pastor? The seminarian? The Bible college student? I believe that every Christian ought to be a student of theology because every Christian has a certain view of God that impacts his life. If we have a certain view of God regardless of our studiousness, it is important then that we develop a view of God that is manifestly and robustly Biblical.
That is why the podcast is expanding to include a new segment called Everyday Theology because I believe every Christian should develop a robust, well-rounded view of God that transforms our knowledge of God, worship to God, and lifestyle for God.
I believe we have developed a narrow view of theology. We see it as the academic Christians debating over whether or not babies should be baptized, if the return of Christ pre or post-millennial, or His atonement was for an elected few or everyone. Yes, theology engages the mind, but the fundamental purpose of theology and doctrine is to transform our lifestyles.
