The Context To be baptized is to be in Christ and to share a common life of faith, a Christ-like life intended to be radically different from that of the world. It is a life of service and servanthood. It is a life of action for justice, peace and reconciliation.
Theology seeks to express the content of faith in the clearest and most coherent language available.
The theologian speaks out of the community of faith, participates in that community and reflects upon it. The goal of education is learning and learning occurs in many ways, under many circumstances, and in a host of varied contexts. From one point of view, learning is contiguous with living, certainly with growth. Teaching is arranging environments and being present to others in ways that assist their learning. The main mission of theological education is to better equip laity and clergy for faithful and effective leadership in the service of Jesus Christ.
