THINKING ABOUT FAITH AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY
Dr. Steven Lulich led an excellent exploration of the canon as it was developing in the early church. The audio is available to stream or download. To get the most out of this lecture, you may want to open the following documents, as Dr. Lulich works through each one in turn: Timeline, Eusebius Ecclesiastical History (III.24/25), Muratorian Fragment, and Early Canon Lists.
Part Three of the Conversation is scheduled for Wednesday, Oct 24th, 7:30pm.
Wednesday Night, 7:30pm, ECC Room 18.
This Wednesday, we pick up the conversation on New Testament Canonicity and Reliability. Dr. Steven Lulich will be the conversation leader this Wednesday, leading an exploration of the earliest explicit canon lists, including that of the great Early Church historian Eusebius of Caesaraea. Eusebius gives us a wonderful view not only of the books in the canon, but also of the logic behind the Church’s recognition of their canonicity in the decades before the Council of Nicaea and the conversion of Emperor Constantine. If you can, take a few minutes and read through these five pages from Eusebius’ Ecclesiastical History.
The audio for part one is available for stream or download.
The first lecture from the four part series on the New Testament has been posted. It was a great conversation, with more to follow!
Reading for Lecture one is available here.

Dr. Steven Lulich addressed issues of New Testament textual reliability at the last Trinity Fellowship Event, on March 28th. It was a fantastic event and Dr. Lulich’s passion for the topic was evident. His amazingly detailed work was presented in an enjoyable, accessible, and engaging way. A brief time of Q&A followed the presentation.
