I: THE MESSAGE
The central topic is the age-old and never-finished discussion of the relation between
faith and reason.1 In any event, it is an ancient topic that goes all the way back to the very
beginnings of the Christian religion. But while it is an ancient topic, it is also a crucial
current topic; there is no topic, it seems to me, more important for the present-day
Christian community than this, and none that warrants more of our best thought and
attention.
