Differentiating Between Defenders and Systematic Philosophical Theology

The upcoming systematic philosophical theology series aims to cater specifically to Christian philosophers, theologians, and scientists, presenting complex topics at a scholarly level. In contrast, the Defenders classes are designed to make the same theological concepts accessible to laypeople, operating as a simplified introduction to systematic theology. The speaker likens the Defenders series to 'systematic theology for dummies,' highlighting its foundational approach that allows individuals without advanced degrees to grasp the material. While the first volume of the systematic philosophical theology is expected to be largely accessible, subsequent volumes will pose greater challenges for the average reader, thus reinforcing the value of the Defenders lessons for broader audiences.
