“Theological Education: Encountering the Social Issues of the Eighties”
Spring 1983
Yvonne Delk, the executive director of the Office of Church in Society of the United Church of Christ, spoke on the relationship of black and feminist theology. Remembering the struggles of her own seminary days in the early 1960s, she wondered if students were being better prepared in 1983 to serve a world that is two-thirds non-white and very poor. Delk called for seminaries to provide “moral guidance” around issues of nuclear arms, gene splicing, prayer in public schools, scientific creationism, and government regulation of religion.
