SUMMARY:Book launch: Reading the Bible in Australia
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to the launch of Reading the Bible in Australia edited by Deborah Storie\, Barbara Deutschmann\, and Michelle Eastwood.  Robyn Whitaker\, Associate Professor of New Testament at Pilgrim\, will launch the book. She will be joined by Naomi Wolfe\, Rev Dr Graham Cole and Dr Jonathan Cornford who will be part of a panel discussing the book and its implications for reading the Bible in Australia. \nReading the Bible in Australia is a collection of essays that invite reflection about how the Bible matters to Australia. Contributors probe intersections between vital debates about Australian identity (who we have been\, are\, and aspire to become) and the Bible\, bringing a range of perspectives to critical themes–indigeneity\, colonization\, and migration; landscape\, biodiversity\, and climate; gender and marginality; economics\, ideology\, and rhetoric. Each chapter explores the past and present influence of a biblical text or theme. Some offer fresh contextually and ethically informed readings. All interrogate the wider outcomes of reading the Bible in different ways. Given the tragic consequences of how it has been used historically\, and sometimes still is\, some Australians would exclude the Bible and its interpreters from public debate. Yet\, as Meredith Lake’s The Bible in Australia demonstrates\, “a degree of biblical literacy–along with critical skill in evaluating how the Bible has been taken up and interpreted in our history–can only help Australians grapple well with the choices Australia faces.” Love it or hate it\, there is no getting around the reality that the Bible\, and how it is read\, still matters. \n5.30pm on Thursday 2nd May \nYuma Auditorium\, Centre for Theology and Ministry\, 29 College Crescent\, Parkville. \nPlease RSVP by Friday 26 April through the link – https://events.humanitix.com/reading-the-bible-in-australia-book-launch
