Theological Terms in Layman Language is an easy to read and understand reference for every student of the Bible. Written by Martin Murphy who has twenty years experience as both a pastor and a teacher, Bible terms and concepts are explained in simple, easy to understand language.

If you have ever questioned what certain theological words, terms, and concepts really meant then this is a must have reference for you. The layout of the book is like a dictionary with words and phrases listed in alphabetical order so they are easy to reference and find in an orderly fashion.

I recommend this book to every student of the Bible and am delighted to have it among my reference materials for Bible Studies.
