Systematic Theology Class
Theology training offered by Credentials Committee
The Conservative Congregational Christian Conference Credentials Committee, Rev. Dr. David McKinley and Rev. Dr. Drake Williams welcome pastors and lay leaders to join us for a week long intensive class on Systematic Theology.
Systematic Theology explores the teachings of the whole Bible and articulates a consistent “system” of thought based on the entire Bible. This, then, provides the foundation for all “Practical Theology,” which then applies the Bible to life.
The class will explore all major topics in Systematic Theology. Alongside the Bible, Millard Erickson’s Christian Theology, 3rd edition, will be the main textbook of the class. During the class, students will read through selected portions of most of this book, write several reflection papers, and also complete a final paper.
Our instructor is Dr. T J Marinello, Professor of Systematic and Historical Theology at Tyndale Theological Seminary in Badhoevedorp, the Netherlands, where he has been a missionary professor for the past twenty years. Before that Tom taught at Emmaus Bible College in Dubuque, IA, and flew large cargo airplanes both in the military and commercially. He is Fellow of the Royal Historical Society in the United Kingdom and is the book series editor for Studies in Brethren History and the Tyndale Theological Seminary Theses Series.
