Journal of Ecumenical Studies, v. 51, issue 4, pp. 464 - 478 (14).0022-0558https://hdl.handle.net/2144/29249This article provides a detailed autobiographical account of two oddly coupled things. On the one hand, the author has been firmly committed to theology without walls since early childhood, including high school publications in a church newsletter and comingdown to a three-volume philosophical theology based on world religions, vulnerable to all perspectives. On the other hand, the author has been actively and deeply religious, including ordination in the United Methodist Church and being the dean of the United Methodist School of Theology at Boston University. Being religious in a particular way is compatible with pursuing theology without walls.p. 464-478Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International"All rights reserved.
