Credo Magazine contributors at ETS next week! (Matthew Barrett)

The annual meeting for the Evangelical Theological Society (ETS) will start next week. The meeting will be held Wednesday through Friday, November 19-21, at the Town and Country Resort & Convention Center in San Diego, CA. Hundreds of papers will be presented on various topics, though the main theme of this year’s meeting revolves around ecclesiology.

Several Credo Magazine contributors will be presenting this year. Perhaps the most important paper being given will be Thomas Schreiner’s presidential message at Thursday evening’s banquet. Schreiner is contributing a book called Faith Alone: The Doctrine of Justification, to a 5 volume series I am editing on the solas of the Reformation (Zondervan). His book will be the first one to release in the series (Fall 2015). So, I am pleased to see that his address at the banquet will address the same topic. I look forward to hearing what Schreiner has to say. See more details below.

Here are the Credo Magazine contributors who will be presenting. If you read Credo Magazine, stop by and say hello. We love to meet our readers!
