LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

I am working my way through the SBL annual meeting program and flagging “Sessions of interest”. Here are my favs for Saturday Nov 22.

Here are my quick-notes: So many attractive things to choose from for the morning. I will probably end up at the Ehrman session because it will just be fun! In the early afternoon, I probably cannot resist the GOCN topic and paper-titles. The early evening “Theological Interp of Script” session also looks very interesting. A good day in all!
