As we announced earlier, this year’s NASPH annual conference will be held virtually on October 30 and 31. You can view the conference program here.
If you would like to attend, please send an email to nasphermeneutics@gmail.com. We will reply with a link to the Zoom session in which the conference will be hosted and the password that you will need to join. To help us avoid a last-minute backlog, we request that you send your email a week or so before the conference starts (but we will still accept requests received after that).
Below is the conference schedule. To help facilitate discussion we encourage participants to read the papers ahead of time. You can view the papers by clicking on the titles below.
