I am grateful to Eerdmans for having sent me a free review copy of Thomas H. McCall’s book Which Trinity? Whose Monotheism? Philosophical and Systematic Theologians on the Metaphysics of Trinitarian Theology(Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 2010).

I’m not sure how useful blogrolls are these days, when the sheer number of blogs we read has grown to the point that a list of all of them is probably not going to be that useful to anyone else. As you’ll see from the sidebar, I share links through Google Reader to specific posts that I have liked, but didn’t have the time or opportunity to, or didn’t feel it appropriate or necessary to, share in a blog post.... Read more

I’m currently working on an article on “monotheism” for a scholarly dictionary-type reference work, and am glad to have been allowed to submit it after the International Society of Biblical Literature conference in July in London. To find out why, pay a visit to Dan McClellan’s blog, which surveys papers that are to be presented at sessions dedicated specifically to the term and concept of monotheism. I’m glad to have a chance to soak in the range of perspectives, views,... Read more
