Recommended Systematic Theology
Real Books by Real Authors
Tim Challies wrote a timely warning about books created by Large Language Models in his article “AI Is Coming For Your Systematic Theology.”
I encourage you to check out the article where he says: “I want you to know it’s happening because it’s likely that things will get far worse before they get any better. I’ll first introduce you to this slop theology, then discuss the threat these books represent, and then tell you how you can identify them.”
In this post I want to share some of my favorite recommended systematic theology and adjacent books, and I encourage you to find them at their publisher websites and bookstores such as Westminster Bookstore, Reformation Heritage Books, and 10ofThose. And don’t forget to use my code DIVEINDIGDEEP to save!
If you are new here, you can find my reviews of these books and more recommendations on my website diveindigdeep.com where I offer Christian resources for faith in real life 📚

8 Gentle Truths for Exhausted Hearts
Heidi Tai, author of the beautiful Unmasking the Prodigal Daughter, with her latest on Substack:
My April letter is short and sweet—an offer of 8 gentle truths for exhausted hearts.
Do you feel weary from carrying too much?
Here are 8 notes I wrote to myself during my 3 month Sabbatical, where I was reflecting on my habit of over-functioning—of being a daughter, wife, mother, worker, church leader, and pastor’s wife who is often driven by an urgency to do better, do more, and do it all.
