Leithart Visit
 Saturday I attended Peter Leithart's lectures on postmodernism for the Dabney Center's Fall Special Session. If you're looking for a well-read overview of the history, theory, and implications of postmodernism set against the backdrop of Ecclesiastes, you'll want to get these lectures from Auburn Avenue Media. You'll also want to listen to his Sunday morning sermon on Ecclesiastes. I'm sure his Sunday School lecture on 1 & 2 Kings and his evening sermon at John Knox were good, too, but I didn't hear those - yet. I also didn't really talk with Dr Leithart other than to shake his hand, say hi and thanks, but that's what BH conferences are for; hopefully I'll be able to continue my accidental tradition of going to the BH conference every-other year (2001, 2003, 2005) and make it next year. Worship and biblical-theological talks by day; afternoons off to go to the beach, visit, shop, rest, whatever; more worship and biblical-theological meditations, followed by eating, drinking, smoking and fellowship by night - doesn't get much better than that.
