Dr Amy Erickson

What got you into theology?

“I acknowledged Christ’s Lordship at a young age, but did not feel a dramatic sense of conversion that I had somehow come to expect. In fact, I “accepted Christ into my heart” on multiple occasions, since I wasn’t sure if it had “worked” the first time – or second, or seventh. I gradually realized, however, that I wasn’t always going to “feel” God’s presence and or my own faith in a dramatic or empirical sense, and that that was ok. As a consequence, I soon became drawn to the physical and even intellectual concreteness of the Bible: it was something I could hold in my hands, pour over, study, and research. That eagerness to understand the Bible launched me into biblical commentaries, biblical languages, and various theological writings…and away I went. My study of theology admittedly began to make up for a perceived deficit in my faith. (Perhaps there is some truth there still for all of us vocational theologians). But it has also developed into a way that I not only know God, but also love God — and embrace how the profound limits of my knowing meet the mysterious depths of his goodness, beauty, and grace.”
