In this session, Peter Leithart, Jeff Meyers, James Bejon, and I address questions on the future of theological education, full preterism, whether there is a deeper significance to various occurrences of ‘Sheba’ and related names, and differences between James Jordan and James Bejon’s readings of Daniel.
