Summary: | Argues that the effect which current crises in the racial, political, and economic arenas have had upon social, health, and educational services demands a fundamental response, one which addresses beliefs and values, as well as problems and their solutions. Notes that as those in power look toward religious leaders for help and moral reinforcement, theology has a unique opportunity to contribute its treasures. Claims, however, that theology is locked into religious and academic environments and is poorly prepared to meet the challenge. Opines that the passions of the crises themselves need to bring about the rebirth of theology. Reports on the experiences of one group of professional as a parable of how this rebirth might begin. |
