Unsettled Christianity

One blog to rule them all, One blog to find them, One blog to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.

Dr. Larry Hurtado’s New Blog

Is Tom Wright next?

Dr. Hurtado writes,

This blog site is a space where I offer comments, analysis, and something of my own contributions to the study of earliest Christianity.  I’ll interact with the treatment of early Christianity in the work of other scholars, and also in the popular media when appropriate.  I’m a scholar of the New Testament and Christian origins, with posts in higher education since 1975.  I’ve been in my current post, Professor of New Testament Language, Literature & Theology (University of Edinburgh) since 1996.  My own research over the decades has focused mainly on the origins and development of “devotion to Jesus” in earliest Christianity, and also on textual criticism and the study of earliest Christian manuscripts as informative artefacts of ancient Christianity.  For more about my own work, consult my University staff page.

Wow.

Joel Landon Watts is a Masters of Theological Studies student with a focus in Mimetic Criticism of the Gospel of Mark. His interests include exploring the role of mimesis in human civilization, specifically in the study of religion and media, as well as science fiction and the way in which it has allowed mythology to be explored in light of scientific ideals of the past century. Currently, he is a TA for Old Testament at United Theological Seminary under Dr. Vivian Johnson, Associate Professor of Old Testament. His first book, Rhetorical Strategies of the Evangelist: Mimetic Criticism of the Gospel of Mark, is expected to be published by Wipf and Stock early next year. He is currently co-editing a book on moving from Fear to Faith (Energion, 2013).

  1. That would be awesome if Wright blogged but considering some of the things he has said about blogging I don't expect it.

  2. True enough…but we can still hope. Besides, if I do get to go to Scotland, perhaps I could have a 'Come to the Blogosphere' meeting with him :)
