Summary

Evangelical Theology: Audio Lectures, a companion to the textbook Evangelical Theology, presents systematic theology from the unique perspective of a biblical scholar. Author and scholar Michael Bird contends that the center, unity, and boundary of the evangelical faith is the evangel, or gospel, as opposed to doctrines like justification by faith or inerrancy.

The evangel is the unifying thread in evangelical theology and the theological hermeneutic through which the various loci of theology need to be understood, thus these lectures present an approach to Christian doctrine that begins with the gospel and sees each loci through the lens of the gospel.

Filled with humor that will keep viewers engaged as they learn the foundational doctrines of the Christian faith, Evangelical Theology: Audio Lectures is an ideal way for beginning students and laypeople to explore theology.

Simple, fun and inviting

This audio lecture is a great introduction and overview to evangelical theology. Michael F. Birds humorous and quirky personality shines through, while he opens up complex conversations of theology in a simple yet inviting manner.

There is a few places I think the chapter could have started a minute earlier or so. However for the most part the chapter dividing is good.

I’d recommend this to anyone who wants to get to an understanding of evangelical theology, but have some experience with academic studies. Though be aware that you will have to look up theological terminology if you don’t know them already.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
