Live Writing
Biblical Realism and Natural Theology
Our first (really 2nd, if you count the Writing Sabbatical) Live Writing experiment. Taking place over two days (Thursday and Friday, October 23-24), we are shifting gears from fiction to academic theology. So, all you would-be theologians out there, put on your thinking caps and take up your pen (or keyboard).
The topic I will be writing about over this Live Writing session is very important in the field of Christian Missions as well as Religious Studies. We'll be looking at the relationship between Biblical Realism and Natural Theology. Now, that probably doesn't mean a whole lot to most of you, so let me try to explain it another way. Fundamentally, we are thinking about the nature of Christian revelation, and if the unique nature of the Christian revelation in Christ excludes any sort of general revelation about God to be found in other, non-Christian religions.
So, start thinking and writing down your thoughts, and I will have an intro posted up shortly for us to comment upon and rip to pieces.
