Men's Theology Night: The Wonderful Works of God

Bavinck - icon image

Every first and third Wednesday until March 1, 2023

6:30pm – 7:45pm

Category: Men's Theology Night | Coordinator: Rev. David Senters

Bavinck - Book coverJoin the men as they probe into rich theology from the book The Wonderful Works of God by Herman Bavinck. Rev. David Senters leads this study on the 1st & 3rd Wednesdays, starting at 6:30 pm (exception: not in Dec. 2022) with the last chapter on March 1, 2023. The men meet at the church office located at the Sawmill Plaza, 10474 Ford Avenue, Unit #11, Richmond Hill, GA. No matter where you are in this study, we invite you to come and capture the essence of Reformed Theology and be edified by Bavinck's scholarly reveal of Scripture that will direct your gaze upward in the worship of God.

AuthorHerman Bavinck (1854-1921) succeeded Abraham Kuyper as Professor of Theology at the Free University of Amsterdam. With the recent translation into English of his four-volume Reformed Dogmatics there has been a renewed appreciation for this deeply intelligent mind committed to the importance of the church.

Description: 110 years after its original publication, The Wonderful Works of God remains one of the finest single-volume systematic theologies ever written. Adapting the magisterial systematic theology found in his four-volume Reformed Dogmatics, this is perhaps Bavinck’s most eminently practical work – a single, accessible volume for the college classroom and the family bookshelf. Previously published in America as Our Reasonable Faith, this book has had a deep and lasting influence on the growth and development of Reformed theology. It is the publisher’s hope that in its new form, this book continues to astonish readers with the wonderful works of God, and provide a deeper knowledge of their triune God.
