CONFERENCE CHAIR: ANSELM MIN

MAGUIRE DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR OF RELIGION

     The purpose of this conference is to discuss the most compelling issues facing Christian theology today.  Eight distinguished theologians will speak on what each considers to be the most compelling theological issue today and how she or he proposes to deal with that issue.  Each presentation will be followed by a response and a general discussion. A very lively debate is expected.  It is hoped that the conference will bring clarity, vitality, and urgency to the situation of contemporary theology that seems rather confused, fragmented, and hopeless.   

The conference is free and open to all.
