WHAT DOES
DIALOGOS MEAN?
Dialogos is the Greek word meaning dialogue. Dialogue is defined by Webster as “open and frank discussion, as in seeking mutual understanding” and “a written work in the form of a conversation.”

. WHY WAS THE NAME “DIALOGOS STUDIES” CHOSEN?
“Dialogos Studies” was chosen because it represents the purpose of the writings that come from it: to encourage an active dialogue between two viewpoints on the same doctrinal topic, enabling readers to see a point by point treatment of the main issues. Too often, books and articles make a convincing argument for their position, but may not address certain points of concern for those holding a different view. A dialogue format allows each side to deal with the same points as well as to respond to the other’s position. The result is, hopefully, a work that allows those seeking a good understanding of an issue to see both sides clearly.
