Hi everyone,
Here is a round-up of some book releases, podcast, vlogs, and other things I have found myself doing in the virtual realm.
NEW Book Release!
The Cambridge Companion to the Apostolic Fathers edited by Scott Harrower and Michael Bird. Huzzah, it releases on 31 March 2021, so like, NOW!
This is an awesome book about the apostolic fathers, terrific essays, some real awesome contributions about early church history in that grey space between the New Testament and patristic period. Make sure you buy the kindle or paperback version as the hardback is exxie.
Free Webinar on Autism and the Church
Autism Spectrum Disorder shapes so many people, families, and churches. This free seminar hosted by Ridley College features Mike Bird (epic Bible nerd), Naomi Bird (assistant children’s minister), and Louise Griffiths (Student Support Education).
The panelists will tackle the hard topics of parenting children with autism and special needs in a Christian setting. They will share their own personal journey as parents of children with special needs, and attempt to bring their own Christian and biblical perspectives on this difficult issue.

Okay, that is it. Hey, if you like all this stuff, take out a paid subscription and for the price of one grande coffee a month, you can get even more content sent directly to you.
I'm pretty stoked about the Apostolic Fathers Companion! Will it be a sin if I read it with my daily coffee?
