...this volume is a product of "the doing theology guild," residents who want to think hard and write about our faith journey and the concerns worth worrying about these days. We meet twice a month and read and discuss papers with each other. We search for clarity of thought, for being able to say out loud in a trusting circle what we are thinking about, praying about, worrying about, and what we are giving thanks for. Mostly we are not academic theologians. We are pastors, administrators, teachers, missionaries and family members of the same. So this is not academic heavy lifting. But it is serious reflection on things that matter to us. Especially in this, the seventh volume in our series, we name and wrestle with some of the things that strain our faith, as well as ways of understanding our community from the introduction.
