How is Theological Studies Applicable to Life and Ministry
Watch a video conversation between two faculty who teaches theology. EAST Resident Faculty, Matthew Winslow (PhD candidate) and Jarred Jung (PhD candidate), discussed why and how theology matters in a Christian’s life and its impact on personal and church ministry.
Matthew noted a key question that theological studies seek to address: “How do we interact with a world that’s changing so quickly and in a distinctly Christian and gospel-centred way?”

Why Theology Matters for Christians
“My church is not growing like it used to.”
“I am not seeing the heart-change in those I disciple.”
“How does my ministry of providing for the poor fit into Jesus’s commandment in the Great Commission to make disciples?”
“The students in my youth group have so many questions that I’m not sure how to answer.”
There is no shortage of difficulties that plague those in Christian ministry today. The bigger question is: Where and how do we go about trying to find answers to these and other difficult questions?
