God’s Practical Joke on Death
Easter Sunday fell on April Fool's Day this year for the first time since 1956. The two days don't seem particularly connected, but I found it somehow apropos. After all, what makes practical jokes funny is the reversal of expectations.
Fretheim Lecture in Biblical Theology: “We, They, and All”
On April 10, Beverly Roberts Gaventa, distinguished professor of New Testament at Baylor University and professor emerita of New Testament at Princeton Theological Seminary, delivered the 2018 Fretheim Lecture: “We, They, and All in Paul’s Letter to the Romans.”

Book Recommendation
“The Word of God and Theology” is a collection of Karl Barth’s formative essays originally written in 1924 and translated by Luther Seminary professor Amy Marga. In addition to Marga’s fresh translation, each essay includes a new introduction written by Marga.
