Dialogue in Zion – Covenant January 23, 2018 by Fulcrum I first met George Lindbeck 30 years ago at a symposium organised by Trinity Church, New York, to discuss what was probably his most influential book, The Nature of Doctrine. For me, as for many others, the book was a liberating contribution to theological debate, chiefly because it insisted that if you wanted to understand how doctrinal statements worked, you should ask “native speakers,” those who were conversant with the “language of Zion.” Rowan Williams.
