Summer/Fall Issue of Fides et Historia
Randall Stephens
The Summer/Fall 2015 issue of Fides et Historia will be making its way into pig holes and mailboxes across America. (Some of those mailboxes will be plain metal ones with the obligatory flag, others will be ones designed to look like tiny barns. Some may even look like little country churches, with small steeples and little gothic, stained-glass windows.)
This special issue features the usual reviews, insightful articles, review essays, and two forums. The latter covers Kate Bowler’s excellent recent book Blessed along with the work, career and wide-reaching influence of Kate’s PhD advisor, the inimitable Grant Wacker. (Kate, of course, is much on our minds these days.) John Wigger (University of Missouri) provides a great intro to the forum on Kate’s superb work:
Don Yerxa, my former colleague at ENC, also offers his introduction that effortlessly ties together the themes and topics in this latest issue. As usual, graduate student membership in the CFH (and a one year subscription to Fides et Historia) is only $20.
