Can Evangelicals Really Be Academics?

We ran across an essay at Inside Higher Ed that was written after the author read the new book titled The Anointed: Evangelical Truth in a Secular Age. It begs many questions of those who consider themselves both academic and an Evangelical. We're pretty sure our faculty fit this profile and that our alumni have an opinion on the matter.

Lockwood looks like. If you've seen this blog at all the last couple of years, you'd think he's practically a movie star with his Conversations with Dr. Dan YouTube video series. Well, today we're going to look a little at the man behind the title.

September 11th – 10yrs Later, A Look Back

The following is the letter the Multnomah student body sent to their brothers and sisters at New York Theological Seminary after the September 11th, 2001 attacks. The letter accompanied a banner with many handwritten notes from students on it.

It’s True. God Brings The Students.

"I’ve said it once, I’ll say it a million times. We have to be faithful in our jobs, but it’s the Lord who recruits for us."

With the words above as her admonishment,  Admissions Counselor Lisa Hezmalhalch sent us an email with a word of encouragement via a blog post from a student who will be starting at Multnomah in the TESOL program this Fall semester.

Don Brake & The King James Bible – Personal Stories

We all know by now that Dean Emeritus of the Seminary Dr. Donald L. Brake has been busy publishing and speaking during this, the 400th anniversary of the KJV Bible.

It's interesting to wonder why someone would take such a liking to the subject - recently some short essays on the matter were published by the man himself. So, we'll let his words speak for him.
