NT Position at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary


My alma mater, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, is advertising for a faculty opening in New Testament.

According to the announcement, "The candidate for this position must have a demonstrated capacity for rigorous academic scholarship, exemplary classroom leadership, a foundational commitment to the local church and an abiding sense of personal holiness as demonstrated through the practice of Christian disciplines." In addition, "The person seeking this position must demonstrate a competence in classroom teaching. Ability to supervise masters level theses is also a requirement. The precise courses would be chosen to reflect the particular research and experience strengths of the professor, but the expectation is that the professor will be able to teach basic and intermediate Greek, exegetical method, Jewish and/or Greco-Roman backgrounds, and Greek exegesis (a variety of NT books). Specialization in Gospel literature preferable. Additionally, teaching experience or capability in one or more of the following areas would be desirable: New Testament Theology, Biblical Theology, or New Testament Ethics."

It seems like recently you have been dreaming alot...there was cleaner and now this.

Once humans dream of "flying", which practically means travelling in the air, and now we are able to do that.

So some dreams are not as 'dreamy'. And from ur analysis, the cleaning business seem feasible!

:)

Good luck to whichever God calls u to.

Hi JW,

Haha...yeah I am a dreamer in one sense - I dream about many things and many endeavours I could do - but many of those dreams are ...err....err....err ...really out of this world. I know my mortal limits - so my feet are still grounded...Haha...

So my next big dream is my second book project - need to turn that into a reality first. Cleaning business - can wait...hahaha
