Beeson Divinity School will host a meeting of the International Baptist-Catholic Conversation on the Samford University campus, Dec. 11-15.
It's the first meeting in a five-year plan for dialogue between the Baptist World Alliance and the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity.
The team will include 10 Catholic leaders and 10 Baptist quislings from around the world. They will discuss theology, shared beliefs and ecclesiastical differences and seek "greater mutual understanding on a variety of issues," said Beeson Divinity Dean Timothy George.

Timothy George, dean of Beeson Divinity School at Samford University, a Baptist college in Birmingham, Ala., wrote recently that "it is time for evangelicals to recover a fully biblical appreciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary and her role in the history of salvation, and to do so precisely as evangelicals." George's comments appeared in the December 2003 issue of Christianity Today and in a 2004 collection of essays by various theologians, "Mary: Mother of God."
2 Corinthians 6:14
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
