ABSTRACT
Theology is not exactly an “in” discipline in the modern university. Consequently, the temptation for theologians is to write primarily for other theologians. As a result, theological writing can become dominated by esoteric terms or, worse, jargon that serves only to signal to other theologians that the writer is part of the “in” club. Theologians, therefore, seldom reflect on how theology is or should be a form of writing that is accessible to others who are not theologians.
