There is a new website Bible and Church whose goal it is "to support and equip Churches with excellence in Biblical Scholarship." The site and associated events are sponsored by Tyndale House, Cambridge, UK.
One such upcoming event is a one day conference on 20 June 2009 at Westminster Chapel, London.
The speakers at this conference are all ETC-bloggers:
Peter Williams, "Have we got the history right?"
Dirk Jongkind, "Have we got the text right?"
Simon Gathercole, "Have we got Jesus right?"
The objective of these lectures are: "Expose false claims about the New Testament; show how the New Testament can be trusted; and equip ordinary Christians to share their faith with confidence."

Hear Peter Williams' invitation to the conference:
A forum for people with knowledge of the Bible in its original languages to discuss its manuscripts and textual history from the perspective of historic evangelical theology.

Great to see equipping like this before the newest brown propaganda movie hits the streets. I wish I could be there!
ReplyDeleteWill the sessions be made available on-line or on CD/DVD?
ReplyDeletePaul, I don't know. I was hoping Peter Williams would answer. If that is the case though I am sure you will notice on the Bible and Church website, so keep your eyes open.
ReplyDeleteThanks Tommy.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be there, but I don't think I will be able to make it. I pray that the event will give many believers a renewed confidence in the written Word of God.
I gather there is some sort of plan to attempt some sort of technological capture of audiotory and visual phenomena on the day.
