"Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock." -Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:24) Theology is the study of God. There is a great need in this day to get back to the foundational teachings of historic Christianity. It is the purpose of this book to educate Christian students in Biblical doctrines and how these vital truths point to the hope, love and salvation of Jesus Christ. In this day of cultism and false teaching many students sometimes struggle with faith issues. The way we think directly affects the way we live, and thus for young people to truly live for Christ they must have a correct Biblical worldview. This theological primer will help students more fully understand and embrace their faith in Jesus Christ and strengthen their witness in this generation. The Young Theologian's Handbook consists of 40 theological subjects along with other helpful information that will challenge all students to be young theologians!

The T&T Clark Handbook of Political Theology is a comprehensive reference resource informed by serious theological scholarship in the three Abrahamic traditions. The engaging and original contributions within this collection represent the epitome of contemporary scholarship in theology, religion, philosophy, history, law, and political science, from leading scholars in their area of specialization. Comprised of five sections that illuminate the rise and relevance of political theology, this handbook begins with the birth of contemporary “political theology,” and is followed by discussions of historical resources and past examples of interaction between theology and politics from all three Abrahamic traditions. The third section surveys the leading figures and movements that have had an impact on the discipline of political theology in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries; and the contributors then build on previously discussed historical resources and methods to engage with contemporary issues and challenges, emphasizing interreligious dialogue, even while addressing concerns of relevance to a particular faith tradition. The volume concludes with three essays that look at the future of political theology from the perspective of each Abrahamic religion. Complete with select bibliographies for each topic, this companion features the most current overview of political theology that will reach a broader, global audience of students and scholars

Theology is, for many, far more than a profession. It is an identity, a passion, a way of life. While books on theology are countless, books on the identity of the theologian are all too rare. In this helpful volume, Henco van der Westhuizen has assembled an outstanding and diverse array of theologians who each offer their wisdom and reflection on what it means to be a theologian through a letter written to someone considering the field. Each letter is as unique as its author, and together they form a rich symphony on the art and craft of being a theologian.
