THEO 104 Experience with Theology
Experience with Theology Essay
As you start your course in the discipline of theology, keep in mind that some students may have already formally studied the topic of theology in an academic setting whereas for others this could be their first academic interaction with the topic. However, as has been said, everyone is a theologian because everyone has thoughts about God. The question is whether or not a person is a faithful theologian. How do you form your thoughts of who God is and what God does? Is it your past experiences? The Bible? Perhaps there is something else that forms your thoughts. These are important questions and considerations that will be explored throughout the course.
