- Christianity:  One Religion or Many Faiths?
Prof. Mark Burrows
  Is there something we can confidently speak of as "Christian" amid the 
crises, diversities, and challenges facing Christian communities in our 
day? Christians affirm that they are worshiping one God, but (as with 
many other religions) the variety of conceptions, theological styles, 
and forms of piety
vary dramatically across the spectrum of churches.  Dr. Mark Burrows, 
professor of the history of Christianity at Andover Newton Theological 
School and a member of the joint doctoral faculty of Boston College will 
address such questions in historical and theological context.
