Cultural Reception of the Gospel
Introduction
The mainstay of a theological journal like Consensus is the contribution of scholars who devote themselves to research, reflection, and imagination for the sake of the articulation and the practice of the faith. Thus, the pages of our journal typically feature the work of accomplished professors of theology – people who write not only because it is their life-calling but also because it is their livelihood. Consensus is indebted to such as these.Foreword
