THOMAS ODEN

'In the Epiphany of 1971 I had a curious dream in which I was in the New Haven cemetery and accidentally stumbled upon my own tombstone with this puzzling epitaph: "He made no new contribution to theology." I woke refreshed and relieved.'
Thomas C Oden, A Change of Heart: A Personal and Theological Memoir, p.143.
