71: Teaching Students the Doctrine of God (Malcom Yarnell) Youth Pastor Theologian
-
- Christianity
If youth workers aren't teaching teenagers about God then how can we call what we're doing "ministry"? The doctrine of God is a topic that people tend to either take for granted or they are intimidated by it's grandeur. This conversation highlights some of the core aspects of the doctrine of God and why it's so important to talk about with teenagers.
What is the vision behind the “Theology for Every Person” series?
People are easily intimidated by the word “theology.” Why is it so important to promote theology for normal believers?
Why start with the doctrine of God and not the doctrine of Scripture/Revelation?
Could you give us an overview of the doctrine of God, what does that involve?
Does someone need to believe in the Trinity in order to be a Christian? What about the new believer?
Our audience is primarily youth pastors and volunteer youth workers… what advice do you have for them in talking about the Trinity and doctrine of God with teenagers, in a way that is simple to understand and doctrinally sound?
Advice about a youth teaching series about the attributes of God?
Dr. Malcolm Yarnell serves as Research Professor of Theology at SWBTS and as Teaching Pastor at Lakeside Baptist Church in Granbury, TX, among other things.
