Sacraments
$19.99Add to cartWhat are the sacraments? Why do Protestants only recognize two sacraments? What do baptism and the Lord’s Supper mean? Sacramental theologian Brent Peterson answers these questions and more in this discussion of The Sacraments from The Wesleyan Theology Series. Peterson first lays the groundwork for a Wesleyan understanding of sacramental practice, then delves deeply into baptism and the Eucharist, affirming faithful practice, correcting errors and misunderstandings, and guiding Christians toward a more robust and healthy observance of the two sacraments that Jesus modeled for us in the New Testament.
Christians are used to hearing theological language in the church but may not feel they have adequate resources to enhance their understanding of what certain terms or concepts mean. The Wesleyan Theology Series aims to discuss Christian doctrines in accessible language that states clearly what we believe and why. Each volume is written by an author with a particular expertise who also has the ability to simplify and clarify complex ideas. The Wesleyan Theology Series is written specifically for the theologically curious layperson, student, or pastor. Topics include: the Trinity, creation, eschatology, the church, the sacraments, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, Scripture, sin, grace, salvation, sanctification, Christian ethics, and atonement.

It will teach them to ask, and answer the question, What does God want to say and do today?
