Damien the Leper Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 He will be at Fuller Southwest Theological Seminary April 28 and 29. Early Bird is $150 and late is $175. It will be great to have some orthodoxy back in the valley. The topic is "Interpreting Paul for the Future of the World."

If so, they have picked an excellent speaker. N.T. Wright is extraordinary. 1
Bob Crockett Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I love his work. I explored the possibility of a doctorate at Fuller; some dean there discouraged it as they would not accept an endorsement from a Mormon bishop. Interesting. 1
Robert F. Smith Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I find it interesting that so many Mormons like N.T. Wright. I wonder why that is? ........................................................ Tom Wright is popular with some Mormons due to his serious interest in the Temple, and in the Creation in Genesis as a "temple story," http://www.rightreason.org/2010/tom-wright-on-reading-the-bible-literally/ , http://www.patheos.com/blogs/bibleandculture/2012/09/16/n-t-wright-on-adam-eve-and-creation . 1
Damien the Leper Posted January 31, 2014 Author Posted January 31, 2014 This is an awesome tribute to Bishop Tom.

I don't know. I would think it has more to do with Fuller Southwest than Bishop Tom. A friend saw him a few years ago and only paid like $50.
