Theology Unpacked
Theology Unpacked exists to explain Christian theology with clarity, depth, and integrity—without watering it down or turning it into something unrecognizable.
This space is designed for seasoned scholars, everyday Christians, the curious, skeptics, and even unbelievers who want to understand what Christianity actually teaches and why it has endured, challenged, and shaped lives across centuries.
Rather than simplifying theology into slogans or abstract jargon, Theology Unpacked takes Christian belief seriously—presenting it in language that is intelligible, honest, and thoughtful, while remaining faithful to its sources in Scripture and the Christian tradition.
Here, theology is not reduced to soundbites, nor is it confined to academic insiders. Complex ideas are explained carefully, not diluted. Questions are welcomed, not avoided. Doubt is engaged, not dismissed.
Faith Explained for Real Life
Theology Unpacked is for Christians seeking deeper understanding, students and lay leaders, those exploring faith, and anyone who has felt that theology was out of reach. Topics include foundational doctrines, suffering and hope, sin and redemption, spiritual formation, and how theology informs culture, politics, prayer, ethics, and relationships.
Theology Unpacked is academically informed but not academic in style.
Whether you are:
A scholar seeking clear synthesis
A Christian wanting deeper understanding
A skeptic examining the claims of faith
Or an unbeliever curious about what Christians truly believe

Instead, I created a list of books as a foundation for understanding decolonization and its crucial role for the church and society….
Theological Ologies
Have you ever wondered how different scholars use various terms when discussing their fields? They might say, “Theology, Christology, Pneumatology,” and you may not understand what they mean. It’s even possible that one spouse is studying theology, while the other spouse is unaware of the different “ologies” within Christian theological education….
