Thanks, Matt. I totally agree with both of your points in both of your paragraphs.

I agree.

I’m beginning to think through “saptient” interpretations of the Bible and the role of that old word, “illumination.” It seems that the academic / scientific / procedural investigation of scripture has an anti-supernatural bias that pastor-scholars could help overcome.

Also, it seems that the recent movement toward “theological interpretation” (Trier, Vanhoozer, and others) moves the hermeneutic into a pastor-scholar’s sweet spot.

Nice, concise. Sounds like your becoming better and better articulating your vision for SAET.

Nice picture too. What a beautiful church.
