I have been away from my blog, and my home, for several weeks over the Christmas period and am still playing catchup with my thoughts so have blogged little. BUT, I came across this new blog and thought I might pass on the info to whomsoever I can. It is a group of folks who are aiming to read through Karl Barth's Church Dogmatics (all 9000 or so pages) in two years - reading roughly 15 pages per day and having Sundays to recover. Go here to read their daily comments on the reading, and here for the reading calendar so you too can join the fun. I have read the CD once before cover to cover, and another time without the small print (which I now know is the best bit!) but thought I might attempt to read along for the craic...
Once again it's been a while since I blogged anything, but I thought I would flag-up this clip from the increasingly successful Modern Theology Timeline created by Tim Hull at St John's College Nottingham, UK. This is a recent interview Tim did with the Edinburgh based scholar Paul Nimmo on Friedrich Schleiermacher. It is a really good interview, and will go a long way to rehabilitating FDES for those who mis-read Barth and reject him outright. Happy watching!
