"After years of studying the bible, then you can study systematic theology. Don't start picking a team until you know your bible."

"In Acts 29 our church planting network, maybe half are formally theologically educated, maybe half are not. A good percentage have masters degrees, a good percentage went to bible college, and a good percentage went to the school of hard knocks. They don't have a formal degree, but they study a lot. A degree can be very helpful, but I think the best way to study theology is IN ministry."
