Leading contemporary Episcopal theologians, both established figures and emerging voices, reflect on the vocation of theology from their unique perspectives.

The Episcopal Church has a deep, rich, diverse, and sophisticated theological heritage going back for centuries. However, for various reasons many members of the Church are unaware of this heritage in its complex fullness, and are likewise unfamiliar with those Episcopalians whose professional vocation it is to study, teach, and write about the doctrines of the Christian faith. This book introduces 15 of these contemporary scholars by inviting them to share how they became a theologian, how they understand the ongoing theological enterprise, and their personal vision for the vital place of theology in the life and mission of the Episcopal Church.

The outstanding contributors are a mix of academics, thought leaders and PhD students from prestigious institutions around the country including: Anthony Baker, James Farwell, Jason Fout, Francisco Garcia, Olufemi Gonsalves, Thomas Holtzen, Kelli Joyce, Maxine King, Scott MacDougall, Robert MacSwain, Joy Ann McDougall, Kara Slade, Katherine Sonderegger, Kathryn Tanner, and Sameer Yadav. Foreword by Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe and afterword by Matthew Ichihashi Potts.

Industry Reviews

"This is a timely collection of thoughtful essays by Episcopal theologians that should spark a robust and creative conversation on theological formation in The Episcopal Church. The essays in this volume are not detached academic exercises; rather, they are grounded in pastoral realities and in the moral and social challenges faced by local communities and their people. The rich diversity of personal narratives and theological themes explored in this volume is striking. What results is a theological vision that is as diverse as the number of contributors yet deeply rooted in Anglican spirituality. This collection itself reflects the characteristic nature of Anglican theological tradition lived out by these theologians in the contemporary time. This is a must read for bishops, church leaders and really anyone who is concerned with theological formation in The Episcopal Church."
