The Practical Nature of Reformed Theology (Seminar)

Sometimes Reformed theology is characterized as involving abstract ideas about God that have no actual bearing on our day-to-day lives. Yet nothing could be further from the truth. In this seminar, Drs. Sinclair Ferguson, W. Robert Godfrey, and Michael Reeves emphasize the relevance, clarity, and comfort that Reformed theology provides for the Christian life and the life of the church.
