Ryan Voogt and I have a chapter on the history of Oastea Domnului in this cracking new book about Romanian Evangelicalism. You should buy it just for my bit (although the rest is good too).

I interviewed Bruce Venarde about his book “The Miracles of Mary in Twelfth Century France” on the New Books Network this week. It’s a collection of translated sources that is not for the squeemish. And it has dragons. With five heads.
