The Andrew Fuller Center for Baptist Studies hosted the conference Baptist Spirituality: Historical Perspectives on August 24-25, 2009. Some of you might find this conference interesting and helpful. I did not want it to fall off the radar.
Most of the audio is up. You can check the direct link for further updates. My pastor even presented though the audio for his session is not up yet.
The Yarnell-Haykin dialogue was particularly interesting as was Kevin Smith’s presentation on African-American Baptists.

Thanks for posting. Looks like the mp3 player in my car will never get any rest!

That’s a good lineup of speakers. I won’t have time to listen to the majority of these, though. Besides the two sessions you already mentioned are there any others you specifically recommend? Thanks!

Wish I knew enough about my computer and had an MP3 player to down load the audios.

Barry, I’ll have to get back to you on that.
Dr. Willingham, how can I help? I’m sure your computer has an mp3 player.

Mark, if it does, I am ignorant of how to use it…as well as how it works. My children consider me to be computer illiterate. Every painful to one with a lot of time in the classroom. I suspect it helps them feel better to be one-up on Dad.

How about downloading an mp3 to your desktop then clicking to open it and see if your audio player automatically plays it?

How? I don’t have an Mp3.
