The following books I received today:
1. James D.G. Dunn, Unity and Diversity in the New Testament
2. Keith Ward, Big Questions in Science and Religion
3. N.T. Wright, Surprised by Hope
Ill definitely be looking forward to reading them, especially Dunn’s as I think his exegesis will be very interesting and open up a whole new dimension to my outlook on the NT. Also Ward’s as Im very interested to read about his views on the compatibility of faith and evolution, as he holds to whats called Theistic-Evolution.
Surprised By Hope is a GREAT book. It’s really amazing how far away from the biblical view of the afterlife mainstream Christianity has gotten, and this book points out not only what we *shouldn’t* believe, but what we should as well. 5 out of 5 stars.
