The topic for the day will be “A Critique of Two Developing Trends in Modern Evangelical Thought: Reformed Catholicity and Reformed Dispensationalism.” The speaker will be Jesse Randolph, Senior Pastor of Indian Hills Community Church in Lincoln, Nebraska. The important and timely topic he will address is regarding the increasing influences of Post- Reformation Scholasticism / Catholic philosophers on evangelical thinking. These influences encourage scholars to engage deeply with historical texts, especially philosophers like Plato and Aristotle and Scholastic Roman Catholic theologians like Thomas Aquinas, to promote what they believe to be a richer understanding of the development of Christian thought.
Jesse Randolph began his career as an attorney, but ultimately gave up the practice of law to enter the Gospel ministry. He earned his academic degrees at University of California – Riverside (BA), University of California, Hastings College of the Law in San Francisco (JD), and The Master’s Seminary (MDiv).
Join us for a morning of theological and expositional conversation on how to preach through this important portion of God’s Word to enable spiritual transformation in your life and in your congregation.
