Theology Is for Everyone Video Series
At Ă۶ąapp, we believe that the study of theology is for everyone. It's easy to think that theology is only important for pastors and Bible professors, but that's not true! Theology is for everyone who walks in a church and thinks thoughts and speaks words about God. And, we should want to be good theological thinkers, regardless of our role in the church. Theology is essential for every believer, because to engage in theology is to engage in Christian living.
Dr. Jeremy Kimble, Associate Professor of Theology at Ă۶ąapp, has recorded an eight-part video series on important theological doctrine that every believer should understand. Each video is short but full of rich truth. Watch them for personal growth, group study, or however God leads you. Be blessed as you dig deeper into God’s Word.

Women's History Month at Ă۶ąapp
by Mindy May, PhD
“We are women, and my plea is let me be a woman, holy through and through, asking for nothing but what God wants to give me, receiving with both hands and with all my heart whatever that is.”
— Elisabeth Elliot, Let Me Be a Woman
As we enter into the month of March, you will see your calendars marked as “Women’s History Month.” In honor of many praiseworthy women in the heritage of the Christian faith, I wanted to call your attention to the display on Women Missionaries: Warriors of the Faith in the Centennial Library. In a partnership between the Kingdom Diversity Advisory Council of Ă۶ąapp and the Centennial Library, we have displayed various biographical works on significant female missionaries across the globe. With the aid of our wonderful library staff, student intern Morgan Rupp compiled a vast array of celebratory works for students, faculty, and staff. My personal favorites include works on Elisabeth Elliot, Amy Carmichael, and Corrie Ten Boom, as their lives and ministries have had a profound impact on me.
