"Deliberative theological reflection also carries us forward when embedded theology proves inadequate. Sincere or not, our embedded theology may be ill-informed or even mistaken, sufficient until a crisis, a conversion, a controversy, or our own spiritual growth leads us to reflect again. . . . Rethinking requires self-conscious effort. It means being receptive and open, but also honest and probing. It is hard work - the sort of hard work that growth in the life of the faith calls for - and it is part of our calling as Christians." - Howard W. Stone & James O. Duke, "How to think theologically"
