My sister, who is a (very talented and fantastic) pastor, recently circulated an article about Roger Williams and made some comments about his contributions to religious liberty (and the separation of church and state) in the United States.
In light of that article and especially in the current political context in the U.S., I thought that after finishing the upcoming posts on Fanny Crosby, I should turn next to Roger Williams and his interpretation of the Wheat and the Weeds parable. Stay tuned for that.
A blog by Dr. David B. Gowler (Oxford College of Emory University) about the reception history of the parables of Jesus. It includes reflections on issues from three of my books on the parables: What are They Saying about the Parables? (Paulist), The Parables after Jesus (Baylor), Howard Thurman: Sermons on the Parables (Orbis).
