Grace Forum Online with Margaret Miles: The History of Theology
April 29, 2020 at 6:00 pm
How do we make meaning in the midst of this global pandemic? How do our experiences shape our beliefs, and vice versa? What will future generations of historians and theologians make of this moment? Join us to hear from Margaret Miles, a historical theologian, the first tenured woman at Harvard University Divinity School, and the former Dean of of the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, in conversation with Dean Malcolm Young. In her most recent work, Recollections and Reconsiderations, she follows the example of the 4th century theologian Augustine of Hippo in looking back over her more than 50 years of scholarly and theological work, an exercise in reflection and humility that identifies both problems facing Christianity today and the tradition’s essence and beauty.
Space is limited. The Forum will be posted on our Youtube channel for viewing following the livestream.
