Join us for an an open evening with Prof Vanhoozer for students, student ministry staff, academics and anyone who is interested, hosted by the Cambridge Christian Study Centre.
How should we interpret Scripture? Evangelical Bible readers today can feel torn between different emphases emerging from different church traditions and cultural backgrounds, and from differences between biblical and systematic theology. Can the gospel itself enable us to navigate these emphases in a way that we are enriched rather than pulled apart by this diversity?
Professor Kevin Vanhoozer, one of the foremost evangelical theologians of our generation, will explore whether the gospel might provide this way through. Drawing on his recent book Mere Christian Hermeneutics, Prof Vanhoozer will offer two talks examining the roots of our current interpretive divisions and setting out a robustly evangelical, gospel-centred approach to reading Scripture that can unite rather than fragment.
