2008 Emergent Theological Conversation: Reclaiming Paul

October 6, 2008

Reclaiming Paul

I will be attending the 2008 Emergent Theological Conversation, Reclaiming Paul: The Apostle in the Emerging World, later this month in Kansas City. The event "brings together Pauline scholars and emerging church leaders for a robust theological conversation on Paul and the Church... [and includes] four major presentations by Pauline scholars, responses by emerging church leaders, and a variety of related workshops/breakout sessions."

I plan on blogging my notes/reflections/recordings while I'm there, and no doubt I'll be Twittering as well. The purpose of this post is to act as a hub for all those attending who plan on doing the same (blogging, Twittering, etc.).

If you're going to the conference AND plan on blogging and/or Twittering, leave a comment on this post with your name, blog URL, and Twitter profile URL. I'll update the bottom of this post as the comments come in.

Twitter users: We'll use a Hashtag to keep track of the Reclaiming Paul conversation on Twitter. For this to be effective, you need to follow @hashtags on Twitter and include "#evpaul08" (without the quotes) in any tweet related to the conference. You can follow the Reclaiming Paul conversation via Twemes (as of this writing, Hashtags isn't working).

Interested in live-blogging a session or two? Let me know in the comments.

This is actually an interesting topic for myself, an atheist. I’ve always subscribed to the belief that Paul was the “inventor” of Christianity. I won’t be able to make it because of ultimate tournaments though. I’ll read about it though.

I think I’m gonna be able to come. Want to save a little gas and share a ride?

Also, have you put this on your iPhone yet?
