I once spoke with a man who had been undergoing treatment for cancer, but who was at the end of effective treatments.  It was time to let go, and as he put it, welcome the Kingdom of God.  But he had an adult daughter who was going through an extremely difficult time - and he wanted to be there for her.  So he had decided to continue treatments so that he could live a bit longer - even though he would suffer.  We look at the issue of "theology", what it is, and what it means to truly understand Scripture and what it tells us about God and our relationship to God.  We see how this man's understanding of theology ended up impacting his final decision about remaining alive.
