#101 Public Theology – with Christine Schliesser

What is public theology—and how does it differ from political theology, apologetics, or cultural witness? What does it look like to bring theological ideas into public life, especially in societies where the language of theology can feel increasingly foreign?

In this episode, we talk with theologian Christine Schliesser about the task of public theology and the role theologians can play in contemporary society. We explore how public theologians in Europe understand their work, how their approach compares with theologians in the United States, and what it takes to translate theological convictions into language that can meaningfully engage the wider world.
