theological discussion
Divinity-focused conversation
A theological discussion is a conversation or debate about religious doctrine, the nature of God, or questions of faith and spirituality.
The term suggests serious intellectual engagement with religious ideas rather than casual talk about church or personal beliefs: The dinner party devolved into a theological discussion about free will and predestination.
