In "Good Form and Christian Etiquette," S. M. I. Henry offers a compelling exploration of the ethical and social dimensions of Christian conduct, set against the backdrop of contemporary society. This thought-provoking work navigates the intricate interconnections between Christian values and everyday interactions, emphasizing the importance of propriety and grace in aligning one's behavior with spiritual beliefs. Through a blend of engaging anecdotes, practical guidelines, and philosophical reflections, Henry articulates a vision of etiquette that harmonizes with Christian teachings. The prose is insightful yet approachable, making it accessible to a broad audience while provoking deeper contemplation on the nuances of moral decorum. The author, S. M. I. Henry, is a prominent scholar in the field of religious studies, particularly focusing on ethics and theology. Drawing from both academic research and personal experience within faith communities, Henry's insights are informed by a profound understanding of historical and contemporary Christian practices.

"Good Form and Christian Etiquette" is a must-read for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of how faith intersects with everyday behavior. Whether you're a devoted Christian or simply curious about the role of etiquette in a spiritual context, this book offers invaluable guidance in navigating social norms with sincerity and respect.

    How to Be Certain That Your Understanding of God Reflects the Truth of Scripture
    If we want to know the truth about God, we need a sound approach to incorporating what the whole Bible teaches. In this concise introduction to systematic theology, theologian Graham A. Cole explores how we move from Scripture to doctrine in order to shape what we believe, what we value, and how we live. He shows us the importance of having the right method: rooted in the word of God, consistent with church history, in the context of a broken world, dependent on divine wisdom, and ultimately aiming at pure worship.
    The first volume in the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, this book explores what it means to do theology, why theology matters, and what it looks like to derive doctrine from God's word—helping us understand what to believe, what to value, and how to live. Each chapter looks at 1 of 5 crucial components for constructing good theology: revelation from God, tradition from the past, worship, wisdom, and experience of brokenness, with case studies illustrating how doctrine is developed from each of these important sources. Readers will be left with a deeper understanding of how to make sure their theology faithfully reflects the truth of God's word.
