Systematic Theology can be daunting. Often times the lay person, who desires to serve the Lord, feels he or she is not well enough educated to confidently discuss topics such as the atonement, ecclesiology, or eschatology.
The Engaging The Mind Podcast seeks to simplify some of the academic rigor of Systematic Theology. Look for new episodes every week.
Some things are best communicated in written form. The Journal covers topics that may not be suited for the Podcast. Entries are devotional in nature and cover anything from theology to apologetics to cultural engagement.
The Engaging The Mind Journal seeks to offer a catalogue of articles which cover a broad swath of Christian life. Look for new articles every week.
There is something timeless about good conversation over good coffee. Sometimes you just need to discuss something in order to fully understand it. Even hearing someone discuss something can lead to greater understanding.
The Engaging The Mind Conversation is a video series that seeks to answer questions by looking in on a discussion between believers. You can learn what the Bible says about some of the more challenging topics in the faith.
