Home Church Theology?

Theological depth matters for home churches—not as an excuse for theological specialization, but because Christian identity, formation, unity, and faithfulness depend upon knowing what we believe. Scripture calls the Church to grow in the knowledge of Christ, resist false teaching, test what we are taught, and remain connected to the broader Christian Church. This post explores why home churches need theological depth while also asking what that depth should look like in different contexts.

A personal tour through the theological books that have most shaped my thinking and ministry, from Aquinas, Calvin, Arminius, and the Orthodox tradition to Oden, Cottrell, Forlines, Olson, and others. These books represent different Christian traditions, but together they demonstrate the remarkable depth and breadth of the Church's theological inheritance—and the value of learning from the whole body of Christ.
