Everybody has beliefs about God. There are a million ways to get God wrong, but there's only a narrow path to getting him right. In order to understand God, we have to go back to the Bible, but that can be overwhelming if you are new to theology. Sketchy Views uses words and sketches to help readers visually connect with and understand what basic Christian theology is and is not. DeWitt helps readers understand why what we think about God is the most important thing about us. Because God is the most important topic a person can think about, the way we think about God (our theology) is our most valuable and important collection of our thoughts and words.
• Illustrations clarify the basics of theology, Christian thinking, and making sense of worldview issues.
• Skeptics, atheists, and theological novices will learn basic truths about God and how Christians through the ages have come to these conclusions.
• Readers will be challenged to examine their basic beliefs about God and themselves and see how they affect every part of life.

"There's no shortage of books today telling us what to think about God. So why pick up this book? Because in a forest filled with pathways, what we need most are wise and experienced guides. Daniel DeWitt is such a guide. In this book, Daniel shows us how to find and traverse the trail of thought that leads to a discovery of God. I'm delighted to recommend this book by a guide I trust."
