Lecture Title - Learning to Love, Loving to Learn: Going to Seminary with the Apostle Paul
What is theological education for? In times of tumult, transition, and upheaval, returning to this most basic question can provide guidance for what we’re doing. Likely, all of us would agree that the pursuit of learning—some type of knowing—is at the heart of theological education. But given that the subject matter of theological education centers upon the triune God, the type of knowledge we are after is one that draws the closest possible relationship between knowing and loving. In this lecture, we will explore the Pauline relationship between knowledge and love as it pertains to the goal of human existence, how we read Scripture and do theology, and how we use knowledge and learning for the good of others.
Joshua W. Jipp (PhD Emory University) is Director of the Henry Center and Professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He is the author of multiple books, including Christ is King: Paul’s Royal Ideology (Fortress Press, 2015), Saved by Faith and Hospitality (Eerdmans, 2017), Pauline Theology as a Way of Life (Baker Academic, 2023), and Reading the Gospels as Christian Scripture (Baker Academic, 2024).
The Henry Center for Theological Understanding provides theological resources that help bridge the gap between the academy and the church. It houses a cluster of initiatives, each of which is aimed at applying practical Christian wisdom to important kingdom issues—for the good of the church, for the soul of the theological academy, for the sake of the world, and ultimately for the glory of God. The HCTU seeks to ground each of these initiatives in Scripture, and it pursues these goals collaboratively, in order to train a new generation of wise interpreters of the Word—lay persons and scholars alike—for the sake of tomorrow’s church, academy, and world.
