Greetings ISCA Members,
We know everyone is in the midst of a busy time of year with the fall semester ending, Christmas a week away, New Year’s right around the corner, and then the start of the spring semester. We want to let you know that there is a new submission deadline for paper proposals for the 2018 ISCA Conference. The new submission date is January 12, 2018.
The theme of this year’s conference is “The Centrality of Christ in Apologetics.” You are welcome to submit a proposal related to the conference’s theme. However, your submission can relate to other areas of apologetics as well. Please send all submissions to Bill Roach at roawil@gmail.com.
Remember this year’s conference is at Southern Evangelical Seminary in Matthews, North Carolina. We have two outstanding plenary speakers lined up for the conference: Michael Kruger and Michael Brown. We look forward to seeing you April 6th and 7th .
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
