Mastery
I successfully defended my thesis today. They asked very difficult questions, which I attempted to answer to the best of my ability, and afterward we went to the pub. I'm going to be seeing a lot more of these people for the next few years, and I'm glad.I still need to finish up the one course I'm enrolled in, on the New Testament Epistles, then I'm done with the MA and ready to move on up to the PhD. At the pub, I floated the idea of starting up a new online journal under the banner of CTS, and they were all excited at the prospect. Once everyone is done with the blog book stuff, I fully expect you to be submitting manuscript after manuscript to The Provisionally Titled Scholarly Journal.
If anyone is curious about the blog book, we have received nearly everyone's proposed topics, and Jared and I will be going through sometime within the next couple weeks to hammer out exactly what topics everyone will be writing on and how we will divide that into sections. If this lives halfway up to my expectations, it will be a very cool and exciting project, and I'm glad Jared thought of it.
