  <default_description>The Christian church has a long tradition of systematic theology, that is, studying theology and doctrine organized around fairly standard categories such as the Word of God, redemption, and Jesus Christ. This introduction to systematic theology has several distinctive features: - A strong emphasis on the scriptural basis for each doctrine and teaching - Clear writing, with technical terms kept to a minimum - A contemporary approach, treating subjects of special interest to the church today - A friendly tone, appealing to the emotions and the spirit as well as the intellect - Frequent application to life - Resources for worship with each chapter - Bibliographies with each chapter that cross-reference subjects to a wide range of other systematic theologies.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[	Widely praised in the insular evangelicalism tainted by a taste of modern Reformed thought, Grudem's Systematic Theology is a perfect evangelical circle-jerk, unafraid to be unaware of any currents of modern or historical thought.  Relying mostly on evangelical systematics of the last 150 years, an...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/35014555">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Grudem gives us a very readable and modern systematic theology. I especially enjoyed his chapter on the Trinity; as I recall, after reading it I exhaled and remarked, &quot;Now that was some good theology!&quot; (I began reading this book with my late pastor, John Baker, in summer 2004.)

    <body><![CDATA[Grudem's systematic theology is a fine addition to the field. Like Reymond's, Grudem's is a contemporary textbook. Grudem is soteriologically reformed. He is credo-baptist. He believes many of the charismata exist today. In other words, he's a non-cessationist. I definitely disagree with Grudem in t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/21323713">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Great theology book. In particular I like it that he concludes each chapter with a hymn of worship and challenging questions for application, so that theology should lead to worship in song and obedience. Differences I have is his old view of earth rather than young and his understanding of the chur...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/38251980">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Grudem brings together Covenant Theology without reducing the active work of the Spirit.  His work is biblical, clearly written, and provides a systematic theological doctrine that anyone can understand.  It is not a book to read from start to finish - even though it would be beneficial - but can be...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/4918288">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I really enjoyed Grudem's systematic theology book.  A big plus for this book are the application questions at the end of each chapter, which make the book great.  Most systematic theology books do not do this!<br/><br/>Some of his teaching I do not agree with; however, on a whole I thoroughly enj...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/34545066">more...</a>]]></body>
