Theology is the study of faith and religion, often, but not exclusively, Christian faith. Theology as a science is related to the study of religion although the science of religion tends to look at religion from a cultural and historical perspective.

Theology is taught at various universities around the world and regarded as an academic pursuit.

In some countries some sort of degree in theology is needed in order to become, for instance, a priest, vicar, minister. And to teach theology.

Keynote speakers dealing with theology might look at theology in general terms or choose to zoom in on specific topics to do with religion and faith.
