  2. Number 2: Is Theological Training Only for Ministers? | Thomas Davis

    In this episode of the Healthy Gospel Church Podcast, Thomas Davis addresses a crucial question for the modern church: Is theological training only for those called to formal ministry? Many assume that deep theological study is reserved for the "academy" or the pulpit, but Thomas argues for a different vision—one where rigorous training serves the entire church. From his perspective as a "pastor-theologian," he explores how bridging the gap between the seminary and the pew strengthens the local congregation and equips every believer to engage with a post-Christian culture. In this video, we discuss: The misconception that theology is only for "experts." How Edinburgh Theological Seminary (ETS) is evolving to serve the whole church. The importance of physical community in theological formation. Why "pastor-theologians" are vital for the future of the Free Church of Scotland. Practical ways to bring high-level theology into the everyday life of the church. Whether you are a student, a church leader, or simply someone looking to deepen your understanding of the gospel, this conversation offers a refreshing look at how the mind and the heart work together in service of Christ.

    This week, we’re joined by Rev. Dr. Cory Brock, minister at St. Columba’s Free Church in Edinburgh, as he shares his story from Mississippi to the Royal Mile, reflecting on faith, theology, and what makes a Healthy Gospel Church in today’s culture.
