Maybe we can coordinate this at Said at Southern. This conference is somewhat historic and has the potential of being the beginning of better things to come. Those who have followed the Calvinism controversy or have followed my research know that it is long overdue to put away the rhetoric, caricatures, misrepresentations, and straw men. I think you see in the line-up that they have been intentional and quite selective in who they will have to represent the "non-Calvinist" or Arminian point of view.

Maybe, we could have a big field trip y'know rent buses and stuff. I'll start trying to raise the money. I’d love to go and I’m sure many other students would be interested as well.

Perhaps that was intentional . . . you know, to keep those young, restless, and Reformed guys away. ;) But seriously, it would be great if there is something that can be worked out with the school if enough students express interest. Drs. Mohler, Lawless, and Nettles are speaking, so there is good representation. Dave,
