Lonergan, like many of his fellow Roman Catholic theologians, perceived that Catholic theology was in need of a massive update, yet one which maintained continuity with the past, and which did not simply jettison past achievement in order to follow contemporary fads.
If Lonergan's concern in Insight was with an exploration of methods generally, an exploration which sought their source in the dynamism of the human mind, with Method in Theology Lonergan sought to articulate the method of theology as a specification of general method.
At the heart of Lonergan's solution to the problem of integrating history within theology is the dynamically linked set of operations he calls functional specialties, and at the center of functional specialties is the presence or absence of conversion in the theologian.
