A Little Exercise for Young Theologians

This classic little book for new and experienced theologians alike offers wise counsel on the difficulties and vital importance of maintaining one s spiritual health in the course of academic theological study.
Since the book s first appearance in English translation in 1962, thousands of beginning theological students have had the opportunity to eavesdrop, as it were, on the opening lecture of a theological seminar by one of the twentieth century s leading Christian thinkers, Helmut Thielicke. More experienced pastors and theologians have also returned to it again and again for the valuable insights that Thielicke brings to bear on their vocation.
