I highly recommend this book to anyone who has the slightest interest in study God’s word and understanding what they’re studying. It sells for $11.99 at Christian Books.

Who Needs Theology?
By Stanley J. Grenz & Roger E. Olson
To many Christians today theology means something alien, overly intellectual and unappealing. Even seminarians are known to balk at it. Yet theology ---most simply, the knowledge of God---is essential to the life and health of the church.
In Who Needs Theology? Two theologians who care profoundly about the witness of ordinary Christians show what theology is, how every believer (earned degrees or not) is a theologian, what tools theology uses, and how lay---as well as professional---theologians can do better theology.
This clear, eminently accessible book is ideal for students, church study groups and individual laypersons who want to enrich their discipleship through the riches of theology.
Stanley J. Grenz is professor of theology and ethics ad Carey/Regent College in Vancouver, British Columbia. He is the author of many books,including (with Dense Muir Kjesbo) Women in the Church (IVP).
Roger E. Olson is professor of theology at Bethel College, St. Paul, Minesota. He is the author (with Stnley Grenz) of 20th-Century Theology (IVP).
