Next Semester’s Classes
Next semester (summer) is going to come faster than I think! Therefore, I’ve already purchased and received all the books from Amazon, and there were a lot! Here’s the classes I’ll be taking:
1. Special Topics in Ancient Christianity taught by Dr. Phil Harrold.
The books required for the class are as follows:
- Introducing Early Christianity: A Topical Survey of Its Life, Beliefs and Practices by Laurie, Ph.D. Guy
- The Rise of Christianity: How the Obscure, Marginal, Jesus Movement Became the Dominant Religious Force …. by Rodney Stark
- The Didache: Text, Translation, Analysis, and Commentary
- Evangelicals and Tradition: The Formative Influence of the Early Church (Evangelical Ressourcement: Ancient Sources for the Churchs Future) by D. H. Williams
2. Biblical Worldview taught by Dr. Steve Sherman
The books required for the class are as follows:
- The Universe Next Door: A Basic Worldview Catalog by James W. Sire
- Transforming Vision: Shaping a Christian World View by Brian J. Walsh
- Naming the Elephant: Worldview As a Concept by James W. Sire
- Shaping a Christian Worldview: The Foundation of Christian Higher Education
- The Problem of God: Yesterday and Today (The St. Thomas More Lectures Series) by John Murray
3. OT Theology, Independent Study - I’ll be comparing several theological systems (Dispensational, Progressive Dispensational, Covenant, any others I should examine???) examining how they handle the OT. I’ll be working with Dr. Gary Staats on this class.
The books required are:
- Toward an Old Testament Theology by Jr., Dr. Walter C. Kaiser
- New Bible Commentary: 21st Century Edition by D. A. Carson
- The rest are the ones I find for use in research. Any suggestions?
4. Theological Summit - One day seminar.



Well you will be very busy but I hope you post some comments on OT Theology!
