What Does Theology Do, Actually?

This volume seeks to engage the seemingly irresolvable tension between the idea of a universal church and the particularity of Christian traditions from historical perspectives. In so doing, challenges arising from this tension related to confessional identity, belonging and acceptance take center stage. Building on the MESt's and WDTD Project's interests in the confessional and cultural diversity of approaches to work in the theological disciplines, WDTD3 will consider how the task and how work in the fields of History of Christianity and Church History is evolving as the participants and actors doing this work engage their field interculturally and in conversation with issues of contemporary global concern.
