The Covenantal Life: Appreciating the Beauty of Theology and Community (by Sarah Ivill)
As an attorney and professional mediator, I deeply appreciate resources that help people to strengthen and enjoy community. As a seminary student, I delight in books the elucidate both philosophy and theology, especially covenant theology. But this tour de force from Sarah Ivill is the first book I have endorsed that perfectly illumines the way that “covenant theology leads to community life that is governed by the God of the covenant.”
As you study this resource alone or in groups, I am confident that you will be well grounded in truth, and then equipped to graciously share that truth with others because, “theology is not just something we know; it is also something we do.”
- Is the community of your church a bit anemic? Read this book.
- Are you looking for a biblically rich, but accessible book, to review the key tenants of covenant theology? Read this book.
- And would you like to know how to identify your spiritual gifts so that you can serve your covenant community? Sarah Ivill has provided the just-right book for you!
The Covenantal Life grounds us in the truth of Scripture. The Covenantal Life equips us to keep an eternal perspective. In The Covenantal Life, Sarah Ivill brings scholarship and relationship together in life-giving, encouraging, equipping ways. I heartily recommend this book.
