A Soul & Neuroscience Event (Watch it Online)

During Sept. 23-24, 2010, I hosted Joel Green from Fuller Theological Seminary for a two part lecture series exploring the concept of the Soul and neuroscience. It well attended and created many wonderful conversations on our campus. If you would like to benefit from the lectures you can see them on youtube: Lecture 1: "What Are They Saying About the Soul?: The Bible, Science and the Soul" and Lecture 2: "Neural or Sacred?: Minds, Souls and Humans". Happy viewing!

Wheaton Theology Conference on the Work of N.T. Wright

This weekend was the Wheaton Theology Conference entitled "Jesus, Paul and the People of God: A Theological Dialogue with N.T.Wright." Papers were given by N.T. Wright, Richard Hayes, Marianne Meye Thompson, Jeremy Begbie, Markus Bockmuehl, Kevin Vanhoozer and others. It was a tremendous treat. And guess what ...  all of them can be viewed or the MP3 can be downloaded for free from WETN, the Wheaton College TV Channel, <http://www.wheaton.edu/wetn/lectures-theology10.htm>.  Wright's three talks, in particular, will encourage and inspire you.
