I like Vanhoozer but as you said...not an easy read.Tremontihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07864105513148857028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448408599120443038.post-71081644060648974142009-08-04T08:54:33.154+08:002009-08-04T08:54:33.154+08:00I've always been a pretty avid reader I suppos...I've always been a pretty avid reader I suppose, but I've gone through plenty of transitions.<br /><br />From Illustrated Classics and Star Wars novels as a kid, to Mechwarrior and Civil War books in Junior High, to popular novels and current events in High-school, to theology/biblical studies and classic fiction (older and modern) from College till now. <br /><br />I think I read much better books now (as in deep/thought provoking/ atristic/ challenging etc) than at I did when I was younger, but that's natural I suppose.<br /><br />Even within theology I've gone through a few transitions, usually as I'm exposed to new authors and topics or find myself less in agreement with what I had been reading.<br /><br />As far as Vanhoozer goes, I think he's brilliant and his writings have affected my own thinking quite a bit, but he's certainly not a quick read.Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12865044615971862266noreply@blogger.com
