Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Anglican Association of Biblical Scholars invites proposals for papers to be delivered at its 2013 Annual Meeting in Baltimore, MD. This year's focus, chosen by members of the Association at its 2012 meeting, is on the Report of Anglican Communion Bible in the Life of the Church project, entitled "Deep Engagement; Fresh Discovery" (Available http://www.anglicancommunion.org/ministry/theological/bible/). Preference will be given to papers that engage this Report, or the resources and additional material for further reflection included in it, in a substantial manner. However, other topics relevant to this year's theme might include (but need not be limited to) context-specific readings of particular biblical passages; historical or constructive studies of the bible in liturgy and/or church music; and assessments of or proposals for the use of the bible in theological education. Proposals must be no longer than 250 words. They should clearly state the paper's thesis or major contribution, outline its basic argument, and list major sources to be engaged. Accepted papers will each be allotted 20 minutes for presentation, to be followed by 5-10 minutes of discussion.
