HOW WE WILL READ CULVER
Ok, folks. This is probably the best way for us to move towards a beginning - by setting out clearly the best way for the growing number of us to read together, and then to discuss.
First of all, Timothy Davis has agreed to co-moderate discussions. You'll have noticed from his posts that he's a firm precisian - and a Presbyterian to boot.
As we all have ability to post a main entry, as well as to make comments on main entries, the blog could rapidly spiral out of control.
Therefore, we suggest that the moderator should state when a chapter or part-chapter is to be discussed and that members should then be encouraged to try to keep their comment-posts relevant to that chapter.
We should also thank Timothy for the fresh new look to the site!
Let's keep reading - I for one am getting much less done than I had hoped - and discussions will commence sometime in August.
ChangeDetection.com can be used to detect any posts to the blog, but all comments to this blog are autoforwarded to all members.
Introductory posts are okay now including bios, general remarks on theology and systematic theology, and topics not covered in Culver, e.g. the doctrine of Scripture.

Crawford,
When do you expect that this will start-up? You had originally said September, but now August.
Timothy,
September is good for me. Shall we say the 1st?
'Tis fine with me.
The question is approximately how fast should we go? A quick bit of maths says Culver is 140 chapters. The question is not so much reading as discussing.
What are everyone's thoughts?
This blog was set-up by Crawford to discuss Culver's ST, so I'm a bit bemused by the question.
So, again, how fast should we go? A quick bit of maths says Culver is 140 chapters. The question is not so much reading as discussing.
What are everyone's thoughts?
(Any Culverites out there but JD and me?)
Could I suggest that we read and discuss one chapter per week, with the intention of completing the book within one year, and therefore skipping at least half of the chapters as we go along?
