Stephen Dempster's Return of the Kingdom and Biblical Theology
Description
In this episode, I share two presentations on Stephen Dempster's recent book, Return of the Kingdom: A Biblical Theology of God's Reign (IVP, 2024). In the first part, Dempster discusses how and why he wrote this book on the theme of the Kingdom of God. In the second part, I reflect upon the significance of Dempster's work for teaching and understanding the discipline of biblical theology. Both of these papers were originally delivered as part of a panel discussion of Dempster's book at the annual meeting of the Evangelical Theological Society in 2024.
See also my previous discussion with Dempster on canon studies, biblical theology, and the book of Genesis.
