The 2015 Los Angeles Theology Conference will be held this upcoming Thursday and Friday at Biola University. The theme of LATC will be the doctrine of atonement. Here is how the organizers describe the conference:
We are inviting theologians who can situate the doctrine of the atonement in its larger systematic theological context, show its connections and implications with other doctrines, and thus throw light on where atonement takes place.
The five plenary speakers will be:
- Michael Horton, Westminster Seminary California
Atonement and Ascension - Matthew Levering, Mundelein Seminary
Atonement and Creation - Bruce McCormack, Princeton Theological Seminar
Atonement and Human Suffering - Ben Myers, Charles Sturt University
Atonement and the Image of God - Eleonore Stump, St. Louis University
Atonement and Eucharist
In light of the upcoming conference, I will be focusing my blog on the doctrine of atonement next week. Expect to see a lot of T.F. Torrance!
Here is a short video on the doctrine of atonement to hold you off in the meantime:
