Review Quotes

Pastor Rich Wager proved to be a person deeply in love with God and His Word. God came first in Rich's life anywhere and everywhere. His ministry, teaching, and writings reflect his desire to impact and enrich the lives of others spiritually in their personal study and daily life. Our friendship reaches back many years to Silver Birch Ranch in Wisconsin where I was conducting a week of meetings for his church. Rich and I found time every day between meetings spending the entire time just talking about the Lord and God's Word which pulsates with the life of Christ. Our friendship continued up to and including his pastoral ministry where he developed his studies to give a deeper understanding of God's Word. I believe his handbook on systematic theology for believers will be a great help as they study scripture. REV. CHARLES SVOBODA Founder and Director Emeritus of Bible Related Ministries Hinsdale, IL Strengthened by Grace: A Systematic Theology Handbook is not a watered down theology but a boiled down study of the doctrines of God in a concise and useable format. It is a must read for any student of the "whole counsel of God." KEN KILINSKI, Th.M. Parson to Person, Inc. Rich Wager had a passion to equip his people with the Word (Eph 4:15-16). His outlines on systematic theology trained a generation for service and ministry to our Lord. I was one of them, and am deeply grateful for the foundation that these studies laid that is still bearing fruit in my life and ministry. RON ELWARDT Associate Pastor of Family Life, Camelback Bible Church Paradise Valley, Arizona The art and craft of any good theologian and teacher involves the ability to make the complex simple. Pastor Richard Wager accomplishes this enormous task in his systematic theology handbook. After spending several years under Pastor Wager's teaching both as a member of his church and at Silver Birch Ranch, I know for a fact that he believed the Bible could be read and understood by everyone. This handbook is a worthy guide in helping unearth the greatest treasures of wisdom and knowledge of God that will nourish your soul. "Richard Wager's handbook on systematic theology is an excellent and practical source to begin one's study in theology. The subject of systematic theology is so vast that even the advanced learner will find it as a practical guide for reference. I have personally used this handbook over the years and would recommend it to anyone who desires to know God more. ROY FRUITS, Th.M. Lead Pastor, Rockpoint Church Lake Elmo, MN The most critical issue for Christianity in this 21st century is theological. In times such as these, when absolute answers to life's important questions seem to be few, sound Biblical doctrine is not only a precious commodity but an absolute necessity. Attending church Sunday after Sunday as a young believer, I discovered that Pastor Wager not only profoundly understood and taught sound doctrine, but also lived it out practically and victoriously. This sound Biblical teaching has served as an invaluably essential foundation for my personal growth and service in the Lord Jesus. Here in this book you, too, will also have that opportunity to encounter those same powerful and life-changing Biblical truths as you grow in His grace. DR. RICHARD HESS Dean of Students, Nicolet Bible Institute White Lake, WI Reading this book, I found valuable insights and I would encourage everyone to read it. DR. JAMES A.
