This study explores the conversion theologies of Luke and Paul. For Luke and Paul conversion played an important role in the early Christian experience and Morlan offers a fresh look into how they interpreted this phenomenon. Morlan traverses representative texts in the Lukan and Pauline corpus equipped with three theological questions. What is the change involved in this conversion? Why is conversion necessary? Who is responsible for conversion? Morlan presents theological and exegetical analysis of Luke 15, Acts 2, Acts 17.16-34, Romans 2 and Romans 9-11 and answers these questions, and, in turn, builds theological profiles for both Luke and Paul. These profiles provide fresh insight into the theological relationship between Luke and Paul, showing significant similarities as well as sharp contrasts between them. Similarities surface between Luke and Paul concerning the centrality of Christology in their conversion theologies. While showing a complex relationship between human and divine agency in conversion, both Luke and Paul understand successful conversion to be impossible without the intervention of an agency outside of the pre-convert.
The essays in this volume of the Bulletin of Ecclesial Theology are drawn from the papers presented at the October 2012 and June 2013 theological symposia hosted by the Center for Pastor Theologians. These two symposia brought together evangelical clergy from across denominational lines, with a view to exploring the topics of gender, sexuality, marriage, and sexual ethics-primarily through an interaction with John Paul II's Male and Female He Created Them: A Theology of the Body. Contributors include Matthew Mason, Gerald Hiestand, Owen Strachan, Christopher Bechtel, and David Morlan. Book reviews in this volume likewise focus on works associated with the themes of sexuality, marriage, and gender.
