Theological Trends
Theological trends change with culture and society, as new knowledge and new world views alter our perspectives.
In this issue of franciscan,
two academics, a cathedral canon and three parish clergy write of the revelation
of God in every facet of daily life and thought; from the detailed study of the
Bible or the imagery of hymns, to the vulnerable, the stressful and the ordinary
pursuits of humanity.
