Opening remarks, followed by lead presentation by Walter Brueggemann: Where is the Scribe?. Q&A and panel discussion with all speakers and guest panelist Amy E. Meverden follows.

Walter Brueggemann has written that the biblical text that has guided his life was inscribed by his father in his Bible at confirmation: "Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path" (Psalm 119:105). Following this calling, he has come to be widely regarded as one of the preeminent contemporary Bible scholars. After earning degrees at Eden Theological Seminary and Union Theological Seminary in New York City, he pursued a long and distinguished teaching career. His nearly sixty books include The Prophetic Imagination, The Book that Breathes New Life, and Redescribing Reality.


More about the conference:
How do we read scripture? Do we read them on our own, deciding what to believe? Do we read them as part of a group, with a similar mindset? Do we read them with a world view? Trinity Institute's 41st National Theological Conference, led by an international panel of distinguished speakers, will explore the theory and practice of Bible study that is authentic and transformative. Speakers include Walter Brueggemann, Mary Gordon, Teresa Okure, and Gordon West.
