Postliberal theology (often called narrative theology) is a theological movement which began in the late 20th-century. Proponents argue that the Church's use of the Bible should focus on a narrative presentation of the faith as regulative for the development of a coherent systematic theology. Founded principally by George Lindbeck, Hans Wilhelm Frei and other scholars at Yale Divinity School it is sometime referred to as "the Yale school" or "narrative theology".

Famous quotes containing the word theology:
“... the generation of the 20’s was truly secular in that it still knew its theology and its varieties of religious experience. We are post-secular, inventing new faiths, without any sense of organizing truths. The truths we accept are so multiple that honesty becomes little more than a strategy by which you manage your tendencies toward duplicity.”
—Ann Douglas (b. 1942)
