Pocket Doctrine: 50 Bite-Size Definitions for Everyday Faith

Sean DeMars offers fifty bite-size definitions of core theological terms to help Christians better understand what they read in the Bible and hear in sermons.  

Everyone is a theologian, not just scholars and pastors. The way we think about God shapes how we pray, relate to others, handle suffering, and live out our daily lives. Doctrine doesn’t just live in books; it shows itself in every area of life. And since it is part of everyday life, it needs to be explained in everyday words. By breaking down big ideas into easily digestible truths, Sean DeMars equips readers to understand, remember, and apply biblical principles in real-life situations.  

Written by a pastor who knows the challenges of grasping complex doctrines, Pocket Doctrine distills fifty essential Christian concepts into simple, memorable definitions. From justification and sanctification to discipleship and worship, each topic is explained in simple language, helping readers to grow in their understanding of God and to share their faith with confidence.
