Conference Theme and call for papers
What is salvation? The biblical concepts of new creation and abundance raise potential implications for our understanding of salvation. Have we individualised, spiritualised, privatised and institutionalised notions of
salvation? What does a fuller concept of salvation actually look like? The TTTF is calling for papers that will address a range of issues relevant to this conference theme. Papers arising from a biblical studies, theological, historical, practical theology or inter-disciplinary perspective are all welcomed.
