Pocket Dictionary of Theological Terms (The IVP Pocket Reference Series) Paperback – April 26, 1999

I was amazed by how complete this small volume was. I used it in class, and it had more content than the large theological dictionary I already owned.

Ordered this book for my Theology class! Great little pocket book to use and easy to understand the terms.

If you are in seminary or want to understand theological terms this is a must! It’s small BUT heavy!!

I think the content is great and it has been helpful in my theology classes. The only reason I Mark it down is that the kindle version is difficult to use because there is no take of contents. If you are in A and need a word that starts with S then you are going to be flipping through a lot of pages.

I was hesitant to buy this book because I wasn't sure it would be very useful at first, but I am very glad that I bought it! I am about halfway through my first semester at a private Bible college, and I don't pick up my theology text books without grabbing this to study with. It takes a lot of common theology terms and gives them simple, concise definitions that are easy to understand.Whether you are new to theology or not, I definitely recommend this little dictionary! I do wish it had more terms in it, but it is a worthwhile investment for the small price you pay. It is great if you are looking for a book that simplifies the most common theology terms - whether for your own use or to explain them to someone else.

Pocket Dictionary of Theological Terms is a thin, portable 7" x 4.3" dictionary that any student or layman of theology would be very lucky and blessed to have. It makes theological terms, from English to foreign, readily accessible and understandable. It also includes brief yet concise definitions of common theological denominations, movements, schools of thought, and theologians known to both scholars, Christian students, and the ordinary church goer. It is indispensable if you are a pastor, ministry leader, Bible study student, or even a theology course major because you can bring it anywhere, although I won't recommend it as a primary or comprehensive resource for any theological papers or major theological homework you might have. Otherwise, you can't go wrong with this portable reference!

The book is much smaller than described. Would not buy from again

Very helpful! I love that I am to find biblical words and their meanings. Easy to carry with me

Small but covers so many different topics and definitions. Wish I had one years ago

This is pitched just right for me , a relative newcomer to theology. The descriptions are brief but helpful, and also orthodox...

An excellent little book, providing clear explanations of key words can easily befuddle students new to the study of theology - much needed.

excellent

Theology has a lot of long words. So this is very useful
