Uneasy Bedfellows: Finding a Home in Two Conflicting Theological Movements « Musings of a Hardlining Moderate

Uneasy Bedfellows: Finding a Home in Two Conflicting Theological Movements « Musings of a Hardlining Moderate.

This is a very important text and I submit it to my friends who have a serious interest in theology and an open mind.

Here is my short comment to Carson Clark, the author of this post:

Carson dear,
It took you two years to write this and I have to expedite my little comment in a few minutes, as I need to leave soon for the airport.
I read your text with the greatest interest, but my baby sitting responsibility this week for three very active boys (My daughter was away) did not allow me many spare moments even for my job.
Anyway, I respect and admire those I know in the two camps you have mentioned.
Personally, I feel closer to the paleo-orthodox camp, simply because of its stronger appeal to spirituality. Although I appreciate and agree with many of the insights of the postfundationalists, philosophy is not my preferred discipline. I value it as an instrument, but I am wary of its speculative bias.
That will be all for now. I will treasure this text. Thanks.

NT Wright la Wheaton

Prietenul Marcel Cosma mă anunţă că NT Wright a fost invitat la Wheaton College, la o conferinţă cu tema Jesus, Paul and the People of God (detalii AICI).

Cu Kevin Vanhoozer predând acolo şi NT Wright invitat să conferenţieze, se pare că sunt zile noi pentru această şcoală, care a stat multă vreme nu prea departe de fundamentalismul zilelor lui de la inceput.

Un interviu cu Kevin Vanhoozer

Marius Cruceru ne semnalează pe blogul său un excelent interviu cu Kevin Vanhoozer, unul dintre cei mai interesanţi şi mai creativi teologi evanghelici din generaţia media, apărut recent pe excelentul blog al lui Justin Taylor numit Between Two Worlds.
