Just back from Texas after a few fantastic days at the J Louis Martyn centennial symposium at @baylor.bsky.social. Great papers, rich conversations, and the launch of three new BUP books by @pgziegler.bsky.social, Beverly Gaventa, and me.

In Sweden, heading to ALT School of Theology in Örebro for a two-day conference on “future challenges in Pauline studies.” I’m doing a paper proposing a conversation between the ‘Paul within Judaism’ and ‘apocalyptic Paul’ perspectives. So I expect to come home having pleased nobody.

I’m running two graduate seminars this term. Our research seminar is reading Amy Peeler’s “Women and the Gender of God” and our theological education reading group is working through Ted Smith’s “The End of Theological Education.” It’s gonna be a good term.
