The ETR Annotated Resources Database is a new experiment to share helpful guidance on sources that may be of interest to readers and listeners. We have intentionally started small, and we welcome your feedback and suggestions for areas of further comment. Our goal is to grow this database in directions where there is curiosity to engage with content from the broader Christian community. We offer resources on four topics from our Core Doctrine branch: Church, Scripture, Sin & Grace, and Trinity. To serve different needs, resources are identified at three levels: Popular, Intermediate, and Academic.
Items are grouped by Topic by default. You can sort and filter the data based on Type, Level, Publication Year, Author, and more. A short annotation from the ETR accompanies each line item with the aim of providing helpful guidance as you choose your next book, podcast, journal, document, or channel.
Click on any line item to see an expanded version of the data. You may also wish to "View larger version" of the data by clicking in the bottom right-hand corner.

Text to Teaching
"Phrasing greatly helps me notice passages that I skimmed over due to familiarity. It helps me see that there is no throw-away wording in Scripture. Every bit of the Bible has a purpose—the Bible is so beautiful and powerful!"
