As a theologian I often struggle with ways to translate conversation in the academy into useful materials for the church.

With this in mind, we return to Marion, whose explication of the Eucharistic site of theology and the role of the (Roman Catholic) bishop as true theologian and mediator of Christ is also situated within a given context.
