Should Pastors Write Systematic Theologies?
A while back I wrote about the importance of keeping a personal copia, a topical index of quotes, arguments, illustrations, and examples.
Here the point is far, far more specific.
It’s about pastors and their writing habits.
A friend, who will remain anonymous, thought he had nothing to say when I suggested he write a systematic theology.
For those who don’t know, a systematic theology is a book covering the various topics of theology and stating, not merely what the author things is true about them and why, but also the interconnectedness of the themes of the Bible, Christian tradition, and Christian confessions of faith.
