You Are A Theologian
An Invitation to Know and Love God Well

Theology can be intimidating. But it doesn’t have to be. The goal of theology is knowing and loving God well. This is a lifelong endeavor, a never-ending pursuit, not for the sake of knowledge, but for an ever-deepening relationship with God Himself. 
We will learn answers to questions such as:

  • Who is God? The Doctrine of the Trinity
  • What is God like? The Attributes of God
  • What is the Bible? The Doctrine of Scripture
  • Who are we? The Doctrine of Humanity
  • What went wrong? The Doctrine of Sin
  • What has God done? The Doctrines of Christology, Atonement, and Justification
  • To whom do we belong? The Doctrine of the Church
  • How does the story end? The Doctrine of Last Things
