J-Term Students Return from Haiti
Five Trinity students traveling with Professor Brad Binau to Haiti as part of a January Term course about mission work are safe and have returned to the United States.
On Saturday, January 16, the group traveled along the coast in two 20-foot boats to the Dominican Republic and then took a bus to Santo Domingo. They stayed in Santo Domingo Saturday evening to rest and make plans to fly out of Santo Domingo back to the U.S.
Dr. Binau and the Trinity students flew out Tuesday, January 19. Other members of the Colorado team traveling with them returned to Denver on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Bible Institute Tracks Influence of Gnosticism
What is Gnosticism and how has it influenced Christianity? What is the historic connection between Gnosticism and Judaism, and how has Gnosticism influenced Christianity down through the ages to today?
Birger A. Pearson, professor emeritus of Religious Studies at the University of California, will address these questions during the 2010 Bible Institute, February 8 and 9. In addition, two Trinity professors and a Hebrew scholar from Ohio State University will reflect on various aspects of the ancient religion in separate workshops.
