In this fourth In Dialogue, Dr. Richard DeClue, Fr. Cajetan Cuddy, O.P., Dr. Matthew Minerd, Fr. Aaron Pidel, S.J., and Fr. Ryan Connors discuss the formation of theologians and the future of theological education. They explore how the tension between ressourcement and Thomism has shaped theology since Vatican II, addressing the loss of a shared theological language, the effects of academic specialization, and the need for a common foundation in Scripture, the Fathers, and St. Thomas Aquinas. The panel calls for renewed unity in theological training—intellectually rigorous, spiritually grounded, and at the service of the Church.
