Subscribe to our Question of the Week: Question: What is contemporary theology?. Answer: Contemporary theology is generally defined as a study of theology and theological trends from post-World War I to the present.
In everyday use, it generally means simply modern or new. But before the 20th century it instead referred only to things from the same era as certain other things; so, for instance, Jesus was contemporary with the Roman emperors Augustus and Tiberius, and Muhammad was contemporary with Pope Gregory the Great.
