Some News

The Way of the Fathers has some nice things to say about ACFI.

Also, check out Tim's new audio introduction on our website.

UPDATE: This is somewhat old news, but Pittsburgh Theological Seminary has a nice article about ACFI, both in the Panorama publication and online.

Summer Seminar Starts Next Week

There's still time to sign up for ACFI's Summer Seminar, The Gospel after the Early Church: Eastern Christianity. It starts next Monday evening for the on-site seminar in Pittsburgh and Tuesday for the online seminar. We will be reading mostly John of Damascus and Symeon the New Theologian, covering all sorts of topics. I expect it to be fascinating, challenging, and refreshing. When I read teachers like these, I realize how much I have to learn about being a Christian.
