How can we think well of God when we have never paused to consider him? For people whose time, finances, and life stage might prevent them from pursuing theological education, Macrina's Key provides the chance to consider all things theological. In 25-30 minutes we’ll cover essential doctrines, ask questions, consider art and beauty, and wrestle with the things of God. Hosted by Dr. Sara Evans, each episode will provide thoughtful material for the new theological adventurer and the most experienced.
