text: (2) The pastor-teacher should create a safe environment where theological discussion and disagreement are both accepted.
At first glance, this statement may feel like a recipe for disaster in the church. In actuality, it is a key ingredient in theological study and church unity. Before this can be taught and practiced in the local church, however, it must first be embraced by the pastor-teacher. For this to work, the pastor-teacher must have a clear understanding of the three levels of theological inquiry.
