A Panel Discussion with Dr. Jim Hamilton
The Bookstore at Southern | Tuesday, August 19 at 4:30 pm
Tom Sculthorpe and Dr. Kyle Claunch will join Dr. Jim Hamilton for a conversation on his latest book In the beginning was the Word: Finding Meaning in the Literary Structure of the Gospel of John.
Discounted books will be available for sale and a brief Q&A will follow.
You may have heard the saying that the Gospel of John is shallow enough for a child to wade in, yet deep enough for an elephant to swim–meaning that any literate Christian can adequately understand it, but there is depth of meaning below the surface that is well worth the effort to explore.
This is your invitation to go deeper.
Like an expert diving instructor, pastor and biblical scholar James M. Hamilton Jr. gives you the tools and training necessary to discover the theological treasures found in the literary structure undergirding John’s Gospel. Covering both the overall structure of the book, as well as key repetition of terms, phrases, concepts, and themes, Hamilton helps you understand what John wanted his readers to grasp about Jesus’s claims of Old Testament fulfillment, his human and divine natures, the triune nature of God, and more.
