andrew walls

"Andrew Walls may be the most important person you don't know." Walls was a revered lecturer in the religious studies department of Aberdeen University when I studied there many years ago. I found this fascinating link to him here, and then read this article about him here.


"Western theology has pursued an inward-focused, intellectual, and pastoral agenda rather than outward-looking evangelistic and missional agenda … As Western theology moved into the university and was professionalized, it became increasingly detached from ecclesial reality and cultural context."


Steve Taylor has a very challenging post here, which raises some significant questions to think about.
