Seminary hosts author Scot McKnight for Sept. 29 seminar

George Fox Evangelical Seminary will host author Scot McKnight for a one-day seminar, “In the Beginning was the Gospel,” from 9 a.m. to noon Wednesday, Sept. 29, in Room 155 at the Portland Center. The event is part of the seminary’s Ministry in Contemporary Culture series.

McKnight, author of The Blue Parakeet: Rethinking How You Read the Bible, will discuss “the many differences between how we ‘evangelize’ and how the apostles evangelized.” He poses such questions as “Do we need to re-examine the meaning of ‘gospel’?”, “Did Jesus preach the gospel or were the apostles the first to preach the gospel?”, and “How important is the cross to the gospel?”

Admission is $20 for employees and students. An optional deli lunch will be available on site for $10. To register online or learn more about McKnight, visit seminars.georgefox.edu.
