Walking the Theological Life
IVP Academic, 2024
By Timothy Gaines

WHO: Timothy Gaines, associate professor of religion at Trevecca Nazarene University and co-pastor at Trevecca Community Church. 

HE SAYS: “This book will serve as an invitation to the adventurous joys of the theological life by first developing the virtues necessary for the work of theology.” 

THE BIG IDEA: This book explores the lives of key biblical characters to help us grow in our understanding of how to do theology virtuously.

THE PROGRESSION: This book is broken down into 12 chapters, each one examining a biblical character and what we can learn about theology through them. Characters include Moses, Isaiah, Thomas, John, and Mary.

“What I offer here is a formational theology approach to theology broadly.”

Adding to Multiply

God is the One who is responsible for all the growth, whether addition or multiplication, but he delights in using his people to serve others and impact the world.
