So I’ve dropped almost completely off the radar the past couple of weeks. I’ve had tons going on at work and school (err, the typical excuse ;-) ) I’ve also been writing a rather large paper (it’ll end up being 25pgs probably) for my Early Christianity class on Ignatius’ use of Paul, which has consumed lots of my writing energy. On the plus side, I should be able to post more often now since things are slowing down *somewhat*. I’ll likely blog portions of the essay I’ve been writing, which has been a blast so far. I’m arguing that Ignatius’ understanding of martyrdom was shaped extensively by a “participatory” understanding of Paul. Lot’s of good stuff :-)
more soon!
