The Bible Faculty Summit Committee has chosen not to choose a theme for 2018. We want to hear what you are working on, what you are interested in.

We would like to have at least one paper, however, for which another participant gives a response. Last year’s interaction between Brian Collins and Scott Aniol was very profitable. If you have ideas for such a pairing, please contact Mark Ward at [email protected].

Save the date: the 2018 Bible Faculty Summit will be held at Bob Jones University in Greenville, SC, from the evening of Tuesday, July 31st through lunch on Thursday, August 2nd.

Lodging will be provided for Tuesday and Wednesday nights (Thursday night is also possible if necessary); meals will be provided from Tuesday supper through Thursday lunch.

Theme and call for papers will be announced in coming weeks.

Be sure to sign up for the Bible Faculty Summit email list at biblefacultysummit.org.

The Bible Faculty Summit 2017 is complete. We heard multiple good papers, enjoyed enriching fellowship, and sharpened one another. Appalachian Bible College and their representative John Rinehart were generous and gracious hosts.

Come next year! Submit a paper proposal here for 2018. Location and time are yet to be determined, but will likely be somewhere in the South around the first week of August.

A reminder to all presenters: please send your papers to Mark Ward as soon as possible at [email protected]. Last-minute submissions are acceptable but not preferred. Papers will be placed on the password-protected 2017 Summit Papers page.

If you have not yet registered for the Bible Faculty Summit, 2017 (Aug 1–3), please do so soon for the sake of our host institution, Appalachian Bible College, as they make preparations.

John Rinehart of Appalachian has also mentioned that if there is sufficient interest, a rafting trip on the lower section of the New River may be organized for the afternoon of Thursday, August 3. Cost: $85 per person; 12-person minimum. Some who are waiting for flights may have time to join in. Please contact John Rinehart or Mark Ward (or use the contact form on the BFS website).
