Reformed Theology & History - February 28 & March 1, 2014

Reformed Theology & History - February 28 & March 1
Friday night from 7pm to 10pm and on Saturday from 8:30am to 3:30pm at the Education Center in El Cerrito, CA. 

We are so pleased that our reformed theology classes are being taught by The Rev. Dr. Gregory Love. Greg is a professor at San Francisco Theological Seminary. Greg is also a popular speaker and preacher. Because of his passion for the local church, Greg, a Presbyterian pastor, makes theology accessible to laity by teaching hundreds of classes in Bay Area Presbyterian churches. 

Here is what some of our students are saying about Greg's classes. 
I am enjoying thoroughly our classes with Greg. Study of theology is entirely new to me and Greg is making the subject come alive. He has a wonderful blend of knowledge and delivery that educates, challenges, nurtures and intrigues me. I am eager to get to the end of November for our next meeting.We are indeed very blessed to have Greg as one of our instructors.”

Greg taught with such enthusiasm for the subject that I couldn't help being excited about what I was learning. The information was clear and concise, and at the same time far-reaching. It was presented in a way that allowed us to see the breadth of the views of each doctrine in a consistent format...like pieces of a puzzle. I really see it as a privilege to have access to these well-respected, knowledgeable theologians.”

Karl, I would like to thank you and the Presbytery for engaging Greg to lead the Theology course within our current Commissioned Lay Pastor program. We covered many essential doctrines in the 10 hours that we have had so far and it left me wanting more.  The next class seems too far off.  Greg’s presentation of the Doctrine of Election was fabulous and without a doubt the most satisfying explanation of a very difficult and sometimes divisive topic that I have encountered.  I’ve wrestled with the topic while discovering my personal theology and was able to arrive (with considerable help from Greg) at a very balanced position that centers on the Grace of God in our election.  It’s obvious that Systematic Theology is passion of Greg’s which makes his instruction a thoroughly enjoyable, enlightening experience.  Thanks again to you and him for helping all of the potential CLP candidates get the most of this potentially life-changing opportunity.”

Greg has been gifted with the ability to dissect and present complex theological issues with extreme clarity.  He is obviously passionate about what he does and somehow transmits not only information, but a part of his conviction to us. But in particular, I love how he presents all views on any particular issue so that I can clearly see where I lie on the spectrum of current theological discourse. I guess he lived up to the hype.” Thomas Hong (Tom is a member at Calvary PC Berkeley and a senior at UC Berkeley)
