The History of Conversational Theology

It turns out that Conversation Theology has a noble heritage at Oak Hill College:

Many students of this era [1945-1960] will recall with affection the various 'coffee schools' that met after lunch to hammer out doctrinal and ecclesiastical affairs.

Thanks for pointing this out, Neil.
