Warm up at the Lutheran Concerns Association Annual Conference

The Lutheran Concerns Association Annual Conference is right around the corner on January 19, the day before Concordia Theological Seminary’s Symposia begin in Fort Wayne. Come hear an all-star group of speakers in a relatively small venue, the theme of which is Thy Word Is Truth. The speakers and their topics include:

  • Dr. Cameron A. MacKenzie – Controversy over Translating the Bible – from Jerome to the Present
  • Dr. Jeffrey J. Kloha – Manuscripts and Misquoting, Inspiration and Apologetics
  • Dr. Peter J. Scaer – A Hermeneutics of Meaning: Created to be in Conversation with God
  • Dr. Martin Noland – The Brief Statement of 1932 as a Defense of the Plenary Authority of Scripture Against the Modern Theory of Development of Doctrine
  • Vicar Dr. Christian Preus – The Clarity of Scripture and the Gospel in Philip Melanchthon’s Loci Communes 1521
  • Dr. Brian S. Saunders – Visitation; Contact and Control

Dr. William Weinrich, plus a couple of bonus speakers during the catered lunch. There is a question and answer session following each speaker, as well as a panel discussion at the end of the day.

Grab your copy of Vicar Dr. Preus’s recent translation Commonplaces: Loci Communes 1521 and turn it into an autographed copy, and save up your questions for Rev. Dr. Kloha, whose messy-uninspired-but-authoritative-because-it-contains-the-Gospel plastic text presentation in Germany certainly raised eyebrows among LCA Board members. (Read Dr. Kloha’s similar 2010 paper here.)
