One more day

I've been leading the basic Bible course this week so have had little time/energy for anything else this week.  I don't know how the class has felt, but I've been happier with this time around than ever.

The flow of the week has been:
Monday: Surveying larger sections of a biblical book
Tuesday: The text of the Bible and following a train of thought
Wednesday: Word studies
Today: Formulating a biblical theology

We have 8 seminary classes going on campus this week, two of which are in Spanish. We are also very privileged to have J. Cameron Carter here from Duke doing a class on Bonhoeffer.

I've had the privilege of hearing J. Kameron Clark lecture on a couple of occasions and have been thoroughly delighted on both occasions. I'm sure his lectures at Wesley Seminary will be of the same caliber.

That should read: J. Kameron Carter. Not quite sure why auto-correct does not want to recognize "Carter."

What sources(primary and seconday) is the lecturer on Bonhoeffer using?
Thanks.

He has done a spectacular job this week. Students have loved him! He's using Bonhoeffer's book Discipleship and Schlingensiepen's book. Then there are two supplemental texts, The Aryan Jesus and The Nazi Conscience.

I once had the chance to hear J.K. Carter exegete the films District 9 and Avatar. It was brilliant and beautiful.

p.s. The class this week has been tremendous MDiv Cohort 05 agrees.
