Know the Theologians: Audio Lectures
Tietoa tästä äänikirjasta
These audio lectures are a unique learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, Know the Theologians: Audio Lectures includes high quality live-recordings of college-level lectures that cover the important points from each subject as well as relevant material from other sources.
The Bible describes the church as a kind of family. Those who believe in Christ are sisters and brothers in the faith, whether they live at the same time or are separated by centuries. For that reason, believers today need to know our family members who have come before and shaped our beliefs and practices now. In Know the Theologians: Audio Lectures, professors and authors Jennifer Powell McNutt and David W. McNutt introduce the most significant thinkers in the church's history.
McNutt and McNutt survey 16 primary figures who represent the breadth and depth of the church's theology, explaining how they fit into their own time period and demonstrating their ongoing relevance today. In addition, it draws attention to the theological voices of women throughout the church's history. Intended to bring the past alive for the benefit of the present, lessons also highlight contemporary figures continuing theology's work. Part of the KNOW series, Know the Theologians: Audio Lectures is designed for personal study, classroom use, or as an accessible resource for small groups in churches.
