Understanding Theology: Volume 2

by R. T. Kendall

Here is the long awaited second volume of subjects from the ‘Westminster School of Theology’. The content and the format of the book are its strengths – the content is searching, clear, profound and fair minded. Rather than ‘duck’ an issue R.T. explains both sides of an argument – showing its history and logical development. The book is laid out in outline form. This enables you to see the clear pattern of the source and development of a doctrine whilst accessing the information as succinctly as possible.

[Stephen · Rating 3 out of 5]

This set is a great introduction to theology, but not a readable one. It is set out like a set of Bible Study notes, and the reader has to do some work to actually fully understand the subject. That, however, is a good thing when considering what this book is about.

There are systematic theologies out there which will go into many of the issues in a similarly systematic way. However, R T Kendall's books are perhaps more practical than the systematic theologies, as they positively lend them-self to small group use.
