Why Write a Liberal Theology? w/ Douglas Ottati
Apr 7, 2014
Douglas Ottati, a distinguished professor in Reformed Theology and Justice Ministry at Davidson College, returns to discuss the need for a liberal theology today. He shares his journey into becoming a Presbyterian liberal theologian and emphasizes the significance of engaging with personal and communal religious experiences. Ottati explores the relationship between liberal theology and historical figures, the implications of the doctrine of creation in light of modern science, and how one's faith can guide active community engagement as a 'resident alien'.
