I’m excited to announce my new book, Walk: Setting Out on the Christian Life—a short, pastoral guide for new Christians, seekers, and anyone wanting to return to the basics of following Jesus.

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.
