After a spike in COVID cases in the late summer, there has been a significant downward trend, including in the Fort Worth area. We have been monitoring recommendations in Texas, and specifically in the City of Fort Worth.

Conference attendees should be careful and responsible, and should not attend sessions or other conference activities and events if they are symptomatic. |

Dear Members, It has recently come to our attention that some members have not received ETS emails.* After looking into the matter, it is likely due to the member unsubscribing from an email that came from ETS, which prevents all future emails to that email address.

During his tenure, Andreas oversaw an expansion of the peer review process, the addition of abstracts and key words to the beginning of articles, an increase in the number of book reviews and the size of the journal, and much more.

Q: Why is this year’s meeting virtual? A: A virtual meeting was necessary this year due to the COVID crisis. To date Rhode Island is restricting public gatherings to 125 people, with social distancing, and has not announced an estimated end date for these restrictions. Additionally, the primary hotels are not taking reservations due to the impact of COVID on their operations, and the convention center is operating as a field hospital and is not slated to be returned to normal operations until sometime in 2021. The bottom line is that our contracted space will not be available for the meeting. Q: If the meeting is virtual, why is there a registration fee? A. Although some costs will be reduced for the 2020 Annual Meeting there are still significant and new expenses to provide a professional meeting that includes a virtual exhibit hall, networking opportunities, along with synchronous and asynchronous program elements. Additionally it is important to keep in mind that income from the annual meeting does more than just pay for the meeting. It also appropriately contributes to the overall Society budget. We do anticipate that the savings in travel, lodging, and other expenses will yield a significant net savings for attendees and will allow many who might not ordinarily be able to travel to the meeting to attend. Additionally the advance registration rate will be kept in place for the remainder of the registration period. Please check back. As details for the 2020 meeting are finalized additional information will be posted here. Updated July 24, 2020 |
|||
Due to COVID–19 restrictions concerning large public gatherings, the ETS Annual Meeting scheduled for November 17-19 in Providence, R.I., will not be held in person. We regret that we will not be able to meet in person but are pleased that we will be able to hold the full 2020 Annual Meeting in a virtual platform. This will include presentations, discussions, and a virtual exhibit hall allowing attendees to examine publications and meet with publishers. |

On May 4, 2020, the Executive Committee of the Evangelical Theological Society accepted the recommendation of the Executive Director Search Committee and unanimously selected Ken Magnuson as the Society’s second Executive Director. David S. Dockery, chair of the search committee remarked that the committee reviewed applications and nominations from a large group of qualified individuals. "It soon became clear," he noted, "to every member of the committee that Ken Magnuson, based on his outstanding education, years and breadth of experience, scholarship, administrative gifts, relational abilities and people skills, as well as his Christian character and commitment, was extremely well suited for this key role in the life of ETS. We are thankful for the fine leadership that Mike Thigpen has provided and are extremely hopeful about Ken Magnuson's guidance for the Society for the years ahead." ETS President, Craig S. Keener, commented, “All of us on the Executive Committee affirm Ken Magnuson and are grateful to the Lord for the prospect of leadership that will continue the wonderful legacy we have already experienced with Mike Thigpen.” Magnuson will begin this new post June 15, 2020. He succeeds J. Michael Thigpen who has served the Society as Executive Director since 2009. Thigpen is leaving the position to serve as Executive Vice-President and Provost of Phoenix Seminary. On hearing the selection, Thigpen noted, “I believe Ken Magnuson is the right person to lead ETS in this next season. Ken's temperament, experience, godly character, and outlook on the role of the Society in the church and the academy are a wonderful fit to move us forward.” |

Dear Members of the Evangelical Theological Society: Greetings in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ! I trust you are well. I am writing to let you know that the Executive Committee of ETS has asked me to serve as chair of the search process that will seek, with God’s help and guidance, to find the right person to follow Mike Thigpen in the role of ETS Executive Director.

Those who will serve with me on the search committee include:
All of these people have been quite active in the life and work of ETS through the years. We want to invite full members interested in serving in the role of Executive Director to submit a CV and cover letter.

We would also invite you to encourage full members you know that might be interested in serving in this role to consider submitting their materials. CVs and cover letters will be received until the end of the day on March 16, 2020 (approximately one month). We hope to have the new Executive Director in place by July 1, 2020 if at all possible. A job description for the position can be found here: https://www.etsjets.org/files/Opportunities/EXD_Job_Description.pdf Let me thank you in advance for your faithful prayers for this process as well as your prayers for the Evangelical Theological Society.

At the Annual Meeting in San Diego last month, the Society voted to increase membership dues. It had been 20 years since the last increase. Over the course of the last two decades, the cost of membership related services (journal production, website maintenance, staff, etc.) has increased dramatically. The increases will enable the Society to continue its operations on a solid fiscal footing each year. The new rates are
The new rates were effective December 1, 2019. |
|||
At its meeting last month, the Executive Committee approved a change in JETS subscription rates. Beginning Dec 1, 2019 the new rates for JETS are:
It had been 20 years since the last increase to the subscription prices. The increase in production prices over the last two decades made the move fiscally necessary. Even with the increase, JETS continues to be competitively priced in the academic journal market. |

Beginning to tackle the resource imbalance in global theological education, Theologians Without Borders has now opened its doors. What’s the idea? The West has material resources and many more PhDs. But it is the Majority World (MW) church that is growing in leaps and bounds. Many Western (W) scholar-teachers want to help and are willing to visit to teach in the MW. When these visits work well, they are amazingly productive for both the visitor and the students, helping grow more strategic leaders right where they are needed most. |

Scholarship Program Accepting NominationsWe are now accepting nominations for the 2019 Annual Meeting Student Scholarship program. After a thorough review of the program's effectiveness over the last 6 years, two key changes have been made. The first is that the scholarship is no longer regional. Nominees may reside anywhere in the US or Canada. (We hope to be able to expand the program to additional international regions in the future.) The second change is that the program now exclusively targets doctoral students. The Program's PurposeThis program is designed to help academically promising doctoral students who find participation in the Society economically prohibitive, or who come from a traditionally underrepresented group to get to know the Society, its functions, its leaders, and the role it plays in supporting conservative evangelical scholarship. The goal of the program is to encourage and support students, who might otherwise not participate in the Society, to appreciate the value of membership and the profitable part that it might play in their academic and ministry futures. Nominating a StudentFull or associate members who want to nominate a student should send an email to rallinson@etsjets.org that includes the following:
Nominations must be received by May 31st. Nominees will receive an email from the ETS office with application instructions. For complete information on the scholarship program, please see: ETS Annual Meeting Student Scholarship Program |

There is an opportunity to teach at the Zaporozhye Bible College and Seminary in Ukraine in their MA program. ZBCS is a missionary endeavor. It is a nonprofit organization. All visiting professors are in effect short term missionaries. You would need to raise your own airfare and bring 250 Euro (or equivalent) for food and transport. |

For years the Society published an annual list of new and forthcoming publications by its members in the Annual Newsletter. This year marks a significant transition as we move the publications listing online. With this new system, ETS members can now login and post their new publications online as they are published. The online listing will allow anyone to view the most recent publications by our members, search for publications by subject, and current members will be able to search for publications by author. The five most recent publications will be listed in the right margin of the homepage. (This section will appear once the first new publications have been entered.) The New Publications page and each of the subject listings is RSS compatible, so whether you want to keep track of all things new or you want to follow a particular subject, just add the feed to your favorite RSS reader and you'll stay up to date with the latest in evangelical scholarship from ETS members. Follow the links on the search page for all the various access options. |

The ETS Career Connections pages are designed to help potential employers and job candidates to connect. Through the Career Connections Candidate Listing service, ETS members who are seeking academic employment will be able to post basic contact, education, and speciality information. Candidates will also be able to post a PDF of their CV materials so that interested employers will be able to see their credentials in more detail. Through the Career Connections Opportunity Listing service, institutions will be able to post new job listings. With space for detailed position descriptions and contact information, institutions will be able to advertise clearly their open positions to evangelical scholars around the world. |
