Some months ago, Peter Leithart declared that it was time Protestantism came to an end.  In a fine response, Fred Sanders offered a trenchant critique of the article.   Then, two weeks ago, Fred contacted me to ask if I would be willing to be part of a debate on the future of Protestantism with himself and Dr.Leithart at Biola University.    Now that, I thought, is one three-way gentlemanly cage-fight I'd like to tell my grandchildren about.

Not sure how it will go down.  I am just a historian, up against two sharp theological and philosophical minds. But, like Fred, I believe Protestantism is worth defending, though I suspect our respective visions of how that should be done will be, like our theologies, somewhat different.  In the meantime, I'm getting fitted for a stetson.
