If you want a primer on how to think well and live well as a follower of the Crucified and Resurrected King, What Does It Mean to Be a Thoughtful Christian? is the place to start. It is a wonderful gift to the church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Daniel L. Akin, President, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary

Drawing upon over thirty years of experience in Christian higher education and theological education, Dockery reminds us that the Christian faith is a coherent faith, rooted in Scripture and affirmed throughout history. Thoughtful Christian is a must-read for all who are contending for the faith and who are seeking assurance to live faithfully in a secularized, pluralistic, and fractured world.

Felix Theonugraha, President, Western Theological Seminary

I wish that someone had handed me Thoughtful Christian when I was a college freshman or sophomore. I’m thankful that David Dockery has written this helpful booklet, and trust the Lord will use it to help many students in their own pursuit of the life of the mind for the glory of God.
