History Lives on exhibit in Findlay, OH

History Lives exhibit, Winebrenner Theological SeminaryToday saw a new first in my writing career—an exhibit of my History Lives series (click on image for a larger view) at Winebrenner Theological Seminary in Findlay. No, the books are not required reading for the student ministers (though I say they should be!). But since my husband and co-author is teaching there this year and everyone has been so enthusiastic about “somebody doing something practical with church history,” the dean ordered copies and invited us to put them on exhibit for students and guests. With the help of faculty secretary Carrie and Professor Grimm (who made the bald-headed and bearded “desert father doll” as a teaching aid for her catechism classes!), we set up their beautiful glass case with info about our series plus a few historical artifacts, including rare books and a brief photographic timeline of Gospel of John texts (P66, Sinaiticus, Gutenberg, and Eliot’s Algonquian translation, to be precise).

The exhibit opened today and will continue until Carrie gets tired of looking at it. Start lobbying now, and perhaps the next stop on our worldwide tour will be a seminary near you!
