- Our theme is Approaching the Bible as Practical Theologians and our key question will be ‘What does practical theological engagement with the Bible look like in practice?’ – The symposium is a BIAPT and Bible Society venture. We invite practical theologians (practitioners, scholars and students) and biblical scholars to join us in this conversation. – Delegates are invited to bring some aspect of their work on Bible and practice to share with the group, with short papers circulated in advance. We are looking for papers that interact with the biblical text in some way.
