The Theology of the Church Section invites papers on contemporary ecclesiology that engage the conference theme on religion, economics, and culture in conflict and conversation. Special preference will be given to those proposals that offer a creative and constructive attempt at dialogue and/or critique of contemporary ecclesial practices and culture on the foundation of scripture and/or tradition (e.g., prophetic, evangelical, apostolic sources and/or monastic, mendicant, scholastic, reformed, magisterial sources, etc). Of particular interest will be those papers that ask questions about the relation between Church and culture, and make use of biblical and traditional resources to engage in constructive dialogue and criticism to inform the mission of the Church in a globalized world. Please send proposals directly or by attachment to Michael T. Dempsey. Email: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
