The lives of Christian churches are shaped by doctrinal theology.
That is, they are shaped by practices in which ideas about God and
God's ways with the world are developed, discussed and deployed.
This book explores those practices, and asks why they matter for
communities seeking to follow Jesus. Taking the example of the
Church of England, this book highlights the embodied, affective and
located reality of all doctrinal practices - and the biases and
exclusions that mar them. It argues that doctrinal theology can in
principle help the church know God better, even though doctrinal
theologians do not know God better than their fellow believers. It
claims that it can help the church to hear in Scripture challenges
to its life, including to its doctrinal theology. It suggests that
doctrinal disagreement is inevitable, but that a better quality of
doctrinal disagreement is possible. And, finally, it argues that,
by encouraging attention to voices that have previously been
ignored, doctrinal theology can foster the ongoing discovery of
God's surprising work.
