Hello and welcome to the Thinking Fellows podcast. My name is Caleb Keith, and today I am joined by

0:24.1

Scott Keith, Adam Francisco, and Bruce Hillman to continue our new series here on Christian dogmatics.

0:32.9

We are following an outline from Franz Piper, and last week we were going to do the pro-legomena,

0:41.5

but we did like the pro-legomena of pro-legomena or something like that.

0:45.9

So, which was good.

0:48.7

It was, I think, time well spent regardless, but this week I think we're going to actually do this, the pro-legomena

0:57.2

blog articles or conferences are probably going to be very interesting to you.

2:02.1

And so I would keep an ear out for those and follow the link in the show notes,

2:07.2

especially things like conferences.

2:08.9

If you have any interest or you've been to a conference before and we end up playing

2:12.2

ads for those things before, that probably is your single opportunity to capitalize on that our conferences have been
