I just received an email today from Covenant Theological Seminary--seems they're offering 20 free 'classes' (recorded lectures and notes) for personal education.
I know not everybody's a nerd, much less a Jesus nerd, but I'm super stoked about it. I've heard about this stuff being available before, and I'm sure it is, but this is the first I've actually seen and heard it.
Most of it looks like pretty good stuff. Well, except for two classes dedicated to understanding the man, the myth, the legend, Francis A. Schaeffer. I'm not a big "Christian Right" guy, so me and him would probably have it out. But the rest of the stuff seems really neat! Anyway, check 'em out!
You know, I could be wrong, but I don't think Francis Schaeffer is a "Christian right" kind of guy. I could be misunderstanding of the application or definition of "Christian right" but what I have read by him so far hasn't lead me to believe that he would be involved with the Christian Coalition. That doesn't mean that people haven't co-opted his work to justify their own erroneous stances though...
