Calvin Theological Seminary
If you're Bible Seminary graduate, like me, or someone who enjoys knowledgable people speaking on different aspects of Scripture or Christian faith and you live out in the provinces where it's often hard to get access to hear these sort of people, then do I have a site for you! If you're anything like me, you probably miss the opportunities to hear these sort of people and the food they provide for your journey. Well, Calvin Theological Seminary have come to our rescue. They provide an online lecture calendar of their visiting speakers. You can go there and listen to their many outstanding speakers. Their lecture calendar reads like a virtual who's who of evangelical scholars (Ellen Charry, NT Wright, Gordon Fee, Miroslav Volf, Kwame Bediako...). You can access it here.

Hi Ali, I first stumbled across Ellen Charry whilst we were doing the Mission and the Western Mind paper. A favourite quote from her in regard to postmodernism being deeply rooted in modernism rather than something different is this:
"Emancipation, first from external constraint and now from meaning itself, binds this long tradition [modernism and hyper modernism] into a single narrative from Descartes to Derrida’
Kwame Bediako is a Ghanaian theologian. I stumbled across him through a missionary couple in our church that spent many years in Ghana. He is regarded as a leading light when it comes to post-colonial African theology.
