Sola Scriptura or Sola Cultura?

On April 14-15, 2011, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary will host the conference, Sola Scriptura or Sola Cultura? Reasserting the Biblical Paradigm for the Great Commission in the 21st Century http://www.swbts.edu/index.cfm?pageid=1836.

If humans are fallen, how does that impact human cultures? What are the legitimate roles of culture, the biblical text, and contexts? What challenges, limits, and constructive guidelines should determine practices that result in biblically critical contextualization? This conference will address these questions and more as we seek to proclaim the Gospel in changing cultures.

Early registration for the conference is $25 for students and $50 for non-students through March 31, 2011. After March 31, registration fees increase to $50 for students and $75 for non-students.

For overnight accommodations, contact Guest Housing at the Riley Center at 817.921.8800 or guests@swbts.edu
