Last Saturday was the Fulcrum Conference Islington 2008. The topic was Conflict and Covenant. Tom Wright spoke on "Conflict and Covenant in the Bible," and Andrew Goddard spoke on "Conflict and Covenant in the Communion." Does somebody who attended, read, or wants to read the papers want to write a digest for S&T?
Today we updated Scripture & Theology to the latest version of WordPress, the engine that powers this site... While we’re at it, we’d like to bring attention to our standing “call for posts.” A few have responded, but we would love to see a number of new submissions.
As Christianity Today noted last week, the board of Westminster Theological Seminary has voted to suspend Old Testament professor Peter Enns in connection with his 2005 book Inspiration and Incarnation: Evangelicals and the Problem of the Old Testament. The faculty, on the other hand, had voted 12 to 8 in support of Enns. Today the seminary hosted a town hall style meeting with the Seminary President and the Board Secretary and Chairman.
