About the Book

How to love God with your heart, soul, and mind. Christians are surrounded by differing voices and opinions. How can you be grounded? How can you be sure you think Christianly? In What Does It Mean to be a Thoughtful Christian?, David S. Dockery argues that Christians must be intentional about their thought life. Thoughtful Christians follow guidance from the Bible, possess a consistent worldview, listen to voices of the past, engage with the world, and prioritize faithful community and character development. Learn how thinking well and thinking Christianly is what you, your church, and your culture needs. The Questions for Restless Minds series applies God's word to today's issues. Each short book faces tough questions honestly and clearly, so you can think wisely, act with conviction, and become more like Christ.

Review :
This book by my dear friend David Dockery is a goldmine of Christian truth wrapped in a small and accessible package. I marveled how so much information could be presented so clearly and so concisely in so few pages. 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 David Dockery has done it again! 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. This faith continues to provide a unifying framework through which all faithful Christians can make sense of the present and prepare for the future. 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 When I was an undergraduate, I did not become serious about intellectual discipleship until I was a college senior. When I finally realized that God had commanded me to love him with all of my mind and to take every thought captive to Christ, it was almost like a second conversion experience. 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. --Nathan A. Finn, provost and dean of the university faculty, North Greenville University This generation of Christians inhabit cultures that sometimes reject not only biblical revelation about reality, but also the reality of reality itself. The "Questions for Restless Minds" series poses many of the toughest questions faced by young Christians to some of the world's foremost Christian thinkers and leaders. --Russell Moore, director, Christianity Today Public Theology Project If you're hungry to go deeper in your faith, wrestle with hard questions, and are dissatisfied with the shallow content on your social media newsfeed, you'll really appreciate this series of thoughtful deep dives on critically important topics like faith, the Bible, friendship, sexuality, philosophy, and more. As you engage with some world-class Christian scholars, you'll be encouraged, equipped, challenged, and above all invited to love God more with your heart, soul, mind, and strength. --Andy Kim, multiethnic resource director, InterVarsity Christian Fellowship We have written short books pitched at undergraduates who want arguments that are accessible and stimulating, but invariably courteous. The material is comprehensive enough that it has become an important resource for pastors and other campus leaders who devote their energies to work with students. Each essay ends with a brief annotated bibliography, intended for readers who want to probe a little further. --D. A. Carson, from the foreword
