The Forum with Dr. Scott MacDougall (Online)

There are numerous books that offer an historical account of Anglican theology or that detail the lives and work of particular Anglican theologians. Books that focus on the nature and character of Anglican theology itself, however, are hard to find. Scott MacDougall fills that gap with his book The Shape of Anglican Theology: Faith Seeking Wisdom. He examines what makes Anglican theology Anglican, beginning with how Anglican theology does and does not differ from other types of Christian theology.

Ultimately he contends that Anglican theology is best understood, not as faith seeking understanding as Anselm famously said, but as faith seeking wisdom. This wisdom is chiefly concerned with discerning faithful ways of being Christian in circumstances where clear answers to complicated questions can be difficult to find.

Join Malcolm Clemens Young, Dean of Grace Cathedral, for a conversation with MacDougall about what makes Anglican theology Anglican, and being faithful in a complicated world.
