The Future of Theology

by Jeffrey Robbins

Is theological thinking still viable in a secular culture where individuals define themselves as “spiritual but not religious”? Jeffrey Robbins responds by exploring the legacy of radical theology which grew out of the path-breaking work of Bonhoeffer, Bultmann, Tillich, “death of God” theologians, and emerging theologians of today. How can the radical theology launched by these figures inspire and produce the kind of social changes we might hope to see?
