Abstract
The first component of our mission as intellectual-faith- practitioners is to carve out epistemological space so that we chronicle intergenerational and multigenerational life paths to God, our Creator and Sustainer. The second component is this; theological educators must grasp the innermost, nitty-gritty essentials of the canon within the canon, in order to broaden our religious imagination through paradigms of cross-cultural and intergenerational interactions. Those of us in the inner circle, responsible for training the next generation of religious leaders, we must decode, decipher, and translate that which is present and available, but is not readily assessable or recognizable.
