Doctrinal Teaching

“We often shy away from teaching new believers deep theology. But the church is called to disciple believers into theological depths.” - Lifeway

“We honestly hope that the next several minutes of conversation, pastor, will help you perhaps re envision the role that confessions of faith and other documents can play in the life of your church.” - TGC

“Children learn who God is by hearing about Him repeatedly. While parents don’t save children, we’re called to repeat gospel truths.” - Lifeway

“From hospital rooms to anxiety, from Scripture’s storyline to church history, this conversation shows why knowing a sovereign, wise, and compassionate God isn’t advanced theology—it’s everyday hope.” - TGC

“the theological classroom is precisely the place where these conversations must occur. Avoiding them would short-circuit spiritual and intellectual formation. If we want students to grow in understanding—true understanding—we must learn how to handle difficult classroom discussions in a way that models and cultivates clarity, humility, and grace.” - Word by Word

“When American evangelicals affirm the Trinity but don’t see the Spirit as a personal being, when they consider Jesus as the sole source of righteousness but insist that people are still inherently good, either not enough churches are teaching sound doctrine or not enough churchgoers are listening.” - CToday

“Chris Larson, Ligonier president and CEO, called the 2025 results ‘sobering,’ saying they point to ‘not merely a knowledge gap but a discipleship gap” among professing Christians.’” - C.Leaders

“The Resurrection of Jesus is tragically under-taught, under-preached, and as a result, under-appreciated ….Apart from Easter weekend or funeral messages, it often becomes a footnote rather than the focal point of modern preaching.” - Baptist Press

“So one thing we all need to do is ask ourselves, What is my study of theology resulting in in me? How is how is this changing me? How is it affecting me? Am I growing and is that demonstrated by the way I’m relating to my brothers and sisters in Christ” - TGC
