Announcing a new series of messages by Daniel R. Hyde at the Oceanside United Reformed Church entitled "Opening Up Romans." This series will lead us verse by verse, chapter by chapter through this foundation portion of Holy Scripture.

My influential college professor, Ronald Wright, always said in class: “Theology that does not become biography is wishful thinking.”

I don’t recall him discussing the question of theological prolegomena in terms of whether theology is more speculative or practical, but I later came to learn that his slogan was a result of hundreds of years of Christian reflection.
