Opening up the conversation

I am just amazed by the powerhouse theologians tonight at the TAG conference. Prof. Phillip Clayton started off the night to show that theology means in an age of Google. But it should be brought to the point that the internet will revolutionize and evolutionize Christianity just like the printing press has. No longer will we be evangelistic. No longer will we be progressive. There will be no lines. Just connections.


Callid Keefe-Perry closed off the night rocking the house, inviting everyone to come and be open to the conversation. Even heretics/heretic-hunters like Ken Silva who has been bashing this conference left and right.

So I pose a question for all to join the conversation...

I literally just saw this commercial on TV, but understood it as traditional Christian theology. Traditional theology has failed you. But I ask you: how will you participate in building a theology that builds community rather than divide it? How will you join in the conversation rather than denounce it?

If you have time, try to watch the live stream of the conference or the twub feed here. we would all love to hear from you while we're in the conference.
