Book Review: Visual Theology by Tim Challies with Josh Byers

If you are a regular visitor to Tim Challies' website, you have seen a few entries from time to time called Visual Theology. These are posters that address various topics such as The Trinity, The Order of Salvation, and Reformed Theology. Many have downloaded these images to put on their computer background or on their social media site.

Challies has now written a book that addresses theological issues with the help of artist Josh Byers, which is appropriately called, Visual Theology. What this book does is teach theology to its readers and get a visual aid to understand what is being addressed. You can call this book, "Systematic Theology with Pictures."

Challies writes about the gospel, what the Bible is, prayer, how to live the Christian life, and even stewardship. Challies writes in the simplest way so that all of his readers can understand what he is communicating. The pictures are great as well (not is not often I say that in a book review). One of my favorites is the one on the Bible, which looks like this:

The picture looks like the Periodic Table separating the Old and New Testaments. This is just one of the many images that are in this book.

Who should read this book? Every Christian for edification and being equipped. I think this book would be good for teenagers and even college students. This might be good for some kids to help them learn sound doctrine as they are getting away from children's Bibles.

Overall, this is an amazing book filled with sound theology and great artistry.

Thanks Booklook Bloggers for letting me review this book.
