Michael Bird on the Apocalyptic Paul
Recently, my friend Michael Bird (Ridley College Melbourne) was in Houston and lectured at the Lanier Theological Library. His topic had to do with whether the apocalyptic Paul could be understood within the framework of what some scholars call “salvation history.” Mike did a good job with the lecture. He’s always witty and relevant. Here is a link to the video:

Joseph Shulam will be offering a lecture and discussions this coming weekend at the Lanier Theological Library (April 1-2, 2016). His topic will be “Who is Paul and Who were his opponents?”
Here is a link to the website. Join us for another good weekend, courtesy of Mark and Becky Lanier.
