Practicing Theology in the Christian Life (Dr. John Frame)

• Episode 12 - Practicing Witness

  Dr. John Frame discusses our witness and the missional identity of the church. How do we practice theological education? What have Lesslie Newbigin and Harvie Conn contributed to this dialog? And, at a time when our civil discourse has become less civil, why is the gospel, and not just natural law, so vital to the church's public witness and theology?
  This concludes Season 1.

• Episode 9 - Practicing Theology

  Is theology only an academic discipline, or are all Christians called to doing theology as we apply the Scriptures to our lives? Dr. John Frame challenges us to consider that we can only truly know ourselves if we understand and know God, that is, if we do theology well.
