Piper and Carson, April 23

Tweet

My good friend and fellow SAET board member, Owen Strachen, has pulled together a great event via his role as the managing director of the Carl F. H. Henry Center for Theological Understanding. The Henry Center shares a similar mission emphasis as the SAET, and they regularly host fantastic events. Here’s a brief write up of the Piper/Carson event from Owen’s blog:

In just two weeks, on Thursday, April 23, 2009, at Park Community Church in Chicago, IL, the Carl F. H. Henry Center for Theological Understanding of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School will host an evening of free lectures and discussion with Dr. John Piper of Bethlehem Baptist Church and Dr. D. A. Carson of Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. The event will begin at 7:00pm and conclude around 10:00pm.

If you’re in the area (or even if you’re not), and you have a heart for scholarship and the local church, this sounds like an event you won’t want to miss. But if you do miss it, don’t worry. More from Owen…

The evening will be recorded in high-definition by Desiring God Ministries and live-blogged by the Henry Center. All material will be available for free at DGM, The Gospel Coalition website, and the Henry Center website.

About the SAET Blog

Welcome to the SAET blog. Herein you will find the theological/pastoral ramblings of the Rev. Matthew Mason, the good Doctor Jason Hood, and Pastor Gerald Hiestand. All three write under the premise that theology and the pastorate belong together, and that (at least some) pastors must once again function as writing theologians for the wider church, for the ecclesial renewal of theology and the theological renewal of the church.
