You have heard the word “theology” before. Perhaps you’ve heard the phrase “biblical theology”. Do you know what it is? The first time I heard it, I thought it sounded kind of stupid. I thought to myself, “Of course our theology should be drawn from the Bible! Why say the same thing twice?” I did not know what the term meant, or the impact it could have on our reading of Scripture, our theologizing, our approach to reading the Bible, and a million other things. In the last decade or so, biblical theology has been undergoing a revitalized interest. This interest has impacted seminary professors, students, and pastors; with the result that more and more popular-level books are being written and read. Biblical theology has earned a place at the table. In this talk, Dr. Don Carson explains what biblical theology is and how it influences our doctrine and life.
