Theology is Meant to Get Into Your Bones
Manage episode 465275911 series 1534578
"I love theology, but theology isn’t meant to live in your head; it’s meant to get into your bones." -- Ian Harber Script: "Theology isn’t meant to live in your head; it’s meant to get into your bones." This is a quote from Ian Harber in his interview with Ivan Mesa, On My Shelf: Life and Books with Ian Harber by TGC. He shares this in the context of reading old books that focus on the Christian life. He mentions On the Christian Life by John Calvin, which I also resonated deeply with. The themes of holiness and obedience are always relevant, no matter the context, and it’s an excellent example of how Reformed theology remains both relevant and applicable. Even affliction and suffering are accounted for. I highly recommend giving this book—and the article—a read.
