Theology in community.

Leadership Journal January 28, 2009

From “Having Ears, Do You Not Hear?” in the current issue ofLeadership.

Somebody will have a stupid, screwy idea. That’s okay. The point of having creeds and confessions and traditions is to keep us in touch with the obvious errors.”

To read the rest, pick up the Winter ’09 issue of Leadership journal.
