Pastoral and Scholastic Earthiness - Frederick Dale Bruner

Frederick Dale Bruner is a theologian and author of several works, including "A Theology of the Holy Spirit," his multi-volumed commentaries on the Gospels of Matthew and John and most recently a shorter commentary on the Letter to the Romans (all published by Eerdmans) . Dr Bruner has received degrees from Princeton and the University of Hamburg and brings his deep learning into every page that he writes and each Sunday School that he teaches. He discusses the difference between the giving and taking of classroom instruction and the pastoral proclamation of preaching, as well as his ongoing efforts towards fluency in Hebrew as he works on his upcoming book on Isaiah 53.

His writing is well-researched, historically informed, and displays a genuine love for the church, and a heart-felt devotion to our Lord Jesus Christ. This conversation includes additional contributions from his wife Kathy!
