## Resource

Want to watch the episode? https://youtu.be/J_V6uHYxnbY In this Theology Lab Conversations episode (episode #1!) Scott Rice and Greg Fung ask a big question: Is theology only for non-experts, or is it something every Christian is called to engage? This conversation explores the basics of theology, how ordinary believers can grow in their understanding of essentials, of interpreting the Bible, and why learning to think theologically matters for the church in light of some the major challenges and questions were asking today. Whether you identify as evangelical, exvangelical, or simply someone with your own questions about faith, our hope is that this series offers something interesting and accessible for theological learning. We talk about how to read the Bible with curiosity, how theology shapes Christian community, and why good questions are essential for a healthy and vibrant faith.
