Wycliffe College Blog

Vestigia Dei  – is a Latin term meaning “traces of God.” As a theological term it is associated with natural theology – that is, the view that there are vestiges of God within creation. We’ve chosen this term as the title of the Wycliffe College blog because our hope is that through these writings, readers might glimpse evidences for God as our writers interact with the wider world.

Scripture and Theology Colloquium October 2024

This fall's Colloquium is: Postliberal Theology For a New Millennium: An Appreciation of Dr Ephraim Radner. 

A generation ago, theology in orthodox and evangelical circles received a boost from a small movement, based around Yale Divinity School that was soon labelled "postliberal theology." Wycliffe Professor Emeritus the Rev. Dr Ephraim Radner has not only been a custodian of this tradition; he has taken forward a Gospel-rich and Church-based orthodox theology well into the 21st century. 

Speakers include Brad East (Abilene Christian University), David Ney (Trinity Anglican Seminary) and George Sumner (Professor Emeritus, Wycliffe College).

Advanced Studies At Wycliffe: Information Sessions: October 16 and October 22

Join members of faculty and current Wycliffe College PHD students to learn what Wycliffe College offers Advanced Students. Two sessions will run:

October 16 (in-person) - Why Wycliffe? 
October 22nd (online).- Emerging Research Topics in Global Christianity with Dr Victor Ezigbo
 

Reformed House of Studies November Conference - Resourcing the Church: attending to the whole person of God

Too often Christians and churches are too content with too little of what God longs to be for, and give to, His people. We often think the only question we need to consider is whether our beliefs and practices are biblical or not, however we also want to consider whether or not we're simply missing things. 

In this day-long conference we'll explore (1) the discipline of attention to Scripture and the call to wholeness; (2) wholeness and discipleship; and (3) wholeness and the full canon of Scripture.
