“The Holy Spirit Teaches us to Die Faithfully.”
Dr. Ephraim Radner delivered a memorable paper at the 2020 Los Angeles Theology Conference last January.

Fortunately, his paper has now been published…

The Presence(s) of the Holy Spirit
Dr. Daniel L. Hill wrote the chapter “”Holy Pedagogue, Perfecting Guide: The Holy Spirit’s Presence in Creation” in the book I recently co-edited with Oliver Crisp, The Third Person of the Trinity: Explorations in Constructive Dogmatics (Zondervan Academic, Dec. 2020).

Filioque and Divine Missions
Adonis Vidu is Professor of Theology at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. He contributed chapter two to the new collection of essays on pneumatology that Oliver Crisp and I edited, The Third Person of the Trinity: Explorations in Constructive Dogmatics.

“Who’s On Third?”
Oliver Crisp and I have edited a brand new book in Zondervan Academic’s Los Angeles Theology Conference series. This volume is on the doctrine of the Holy Spirit, and its title is The Third Person of the Trinity. The book is such a solid showcase of contemporary pneumatology that I want to share a few…
