Simple brilliance punctuated with suspect concepts
By David C. Leaumont
This was my text for Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary's Survey of Christian Doctrine (THEO 510). The book coincides with video lectures Dr. Towns recorded. Dr. Towns hails from a mild dispensational stance that believes in pretrib/premil eschatology, all to which I agree. He is conservative in theology, and, I believe, sound in major concepts. He holds a high view of Scripture, which shines through in its use in this text.
This is the second class I have taken under Dr. Towns, and both times he wrote the textbook. The other was an Evangelism and Church Growth class, and I am happy to say that this text (Theology for Today) is MUCH, MUCH better than the other text. Theology for Today has only minor grammatical, spelling and formatting issues. But, for the price (between $70 and $100 depending on where you buy...I paid $77 + s/h), you would expect a perfectly polished text. This text is actually bound professionally, unlike some of his other texts which were put together with plastic binding found at Kinko's (literally). The outline format is haphazard at times.
I said in the title that this text was simple brilliance punctuated with suspect concepts. Let me start with the positive first. Dr. Towns explains complex issues with clarity and provides very useful lists of evidence supporting theologies, such as the prophecies foretelling of Christ. There are great exegetical concepts cataloged in Towns' text that are usually left out of other theology texts. He frequently references Strong, Hodge and Scofield (at least much more than other authors.) On the other hand, Dr. Towns states several times in his course that definitive answers can be found for some highly debatable concepts. It is under these debatable concepts that he tends to lose me. He makes some sweeping generalizations in his chapters on demonology, satanology and angelology that have tenuous Scriptural support. Long-story-short, he goes confidently out on a limb and doesn't give enough Scriptural support in these chapters. Likewise, while not a Calvinist or an Arminian, he uses mostly Calvinistic writers' critiques of Arminianism. This leads to a narrow straw man view of Arminianism. He makes some claims of science in his very very short intro to the creation/evolution debate and he does so without references. To me, this is poor form, as critiques of science without references to some reliable source are of limited value. He has plenty of sources listed on other topics, and I wondered why he didn't reference his short foray into science. (In his book, his science is decent, but in the video he confused the big bang theory with the theory of the Cambrian explosion, so I would like to see his sources on other things regarding science.)
This text includes a glossary, an index of persons and an index of Scripture.
If you can get this text used at half the price of a new book (preferably somewhere in the $30 to $40 range), it is worth adding to your library. While I will rely on my copy of Erickson's "Christian Theology" and other theologies before this text, Theology for Today will remain on my shelf, and I will look to it for reference when situations dictate.

Theology for Today
By Stephen C. Jones
I am not going to go into any detail with the book as that has been done extensively. However, it must be known that Theology for Today is an introductory theology book. Meaning, it will convey and advocate some concepts that are not totally clear, while condemning others without giving a fuller explanation. Again, it is not an advanced systematic theology (by the way, neither is Grudem's). This book was designed for undergraduates to spoon-feed their beliefs without necessarily having to weigh ALL of the evidence. That will come later in other, deeper theology classes. So before condemning this book, consider the context in which it was written. For students who know practically nothing about theology. Change your major to theology and you will go deeper to what you are looking for. Then go to seminary and go even deeper than that and deal with the really hard issues. Towns, Grudem, and Erricson (Christian Theology) all have the same goal, just do it different ways. Town's may be the lesser of the three, but it does not deserve the trash can by any means.It is not a four or five volume book on theology.
