  Indiana Home Educators... Convention Mar. 23-24 Indiana Home Educators...


"The Indiana Association of Home Educators is a non-profit organization founded in 1983 for the purpose of serving the Lord Jesus Christ through supporting and encouraging families interested in home education. We define home education as parent-directed, home-based, privately-funded discipleship. Maintaining visibility as home educators with civil government leaders, influencing the legislative process, and sponsoring seminars for parent education are our primary functions."

  Evangelical Theological Society... an overview I enjoyed sitting in on an interesting presentation by Dr. Odell today, regarding the annual conference of the Evangelical Theological Society (ETS).... an academic forum for discussion among statement-of-faith evangelical professors.


Dr. Jim Odell, Crossroads Bible College

[notes continued 'inside' CrossroadsConnection.com.]

And here's a considerable (and very interesting) blog about ETS, from right here in the Central Indiana area...


Andy Rowell, Taylor University

He also has a great list of 'Seminaries For Evangelicals'... listed according to their theological positions.

Thanks, Dr. Odell, for sparking the conversation today... leading to finding other education change-agents.  ¶ 12:03 PM 0 comments

  Blogging Professors [Here's a post (and a growing list!) I greatly enjoyed coming across, from our sister city... Louisville.]


Tim Brister
Southern Seminary, Louisville

"One of the encouraging things I have noticed over the past year of blogging is the number of professors who have joined the blogosphere. This is encouraging because I know that in the minds of some professors the blogosphere is an unacceptable medium for communication as it does not carry the legitimacy of a theological journal or academic paper. However, those who have realized what blogging can offer are reaping the benefits of it with more students and readers than they could ever imagine from a classroom setting. While I disagree with some of these professors on many points, I applaud their efforts to bring academia where it should be--among the masses.Although I have searched the blogosphere carefully to find evangelical professors, I know that I have left out some. If you know of one I missed, please include the name and blog in the comment section. Here are the blogging professors I have rounded up thus far..." [continued]
