| Summary: | Starting with the proposition that we, as scholars, live by the quality of our words (or conversations), this paper explores how we might renew conversations in three areas. First, in an age of skepticism in which God-talk is methodologically excluded from much academic conversation, how might we achieve a better correlation between our methodological practices and our metaphysical convictions? Second, in an age tending toward accommodation, how might we more transparently converse with un-like-minded scholars, "speaking the truth in love"? Third, in an age of increasing specialization, how might we improve our conversations among ourselves, as like-minded scholars, so as to achieve more thoroughly grounded syntheses? |
