HomeTeamFamily Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 this isnt a thread prasing him, although he deserves much of it i was wondering how many apologists on here are familiar with hahns work with salvation history and the idea that the new covenant that God established with His church is modeled after a family and family life...... i think its an interesting idea, and makes very much sense
Neal4Christ Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 I read his book, [i]A Father Who Keeps His Promises[/i], and he deals with this subject. It was very good and enlightening. I won't look at salvation quite the same way.

HomeTeamFamily Posted January 9, 2005 Author Posted January 9, 2005 hmm i may need to pick that one up...or at least read it
StColette Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 Anything by Scott Hahn is a must have especially his Marian stuff
HomeTeamFamily Posted January 9, 2005 Author Posted January 9, 2005 hey thanks for not hijacking THIS thread jennie

franciscanheart Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 isnt that almost like hijacking by the owner? i think it is....
HomeTeamFamily Posted January 9, 2005 Author Posted January 9, 2005 no, when the owner "hijacks" it is assumed that the material that is used to "hijack" is just added onto the subject of the thread, so for example, now this thread is open to discusson on scott hahn and his theories of the covenant plan, as well as my supposed hijacking and in reality, jennie hijacked this one too by diverting the subject onto scott hahn and marian texts, not salvation history
StColette Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 Technically Adam deary Marian stuff does fit into Salvation history
franciscanheart Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 i think youre reading to deeply into it. and now this thread has been hijacked. too late for all the thinking anyway. might as well just give up. btw scott hahn is the bomb.
goldenchild17 Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 I'm going through his "Salvation History" cd's right now
HomeTeamFamily Posted January 9, 2005 Author Posted January 9, 2005 awww man i was totally thinking about buying those from teh bookstore i work at.....im so jealous
goldenchild17 Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 Yah, a family friend gave me a copy for free. I can totally look at the Bible in a different light now. It's good stuff.
Ziggamafu Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 A Father Who Keeps His Promises and The Lamb's Supper have been very influential in getting my mother-in-law to re-evaluate the Church. I'm hoping she'll read First Comes Love next.
Neal4Christ Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 [quote name='VoloHumilisEsse' date='Jan 9 2005, 02:03 AM'] hmm i may need to pick that one up...or at least read it [/quote] I would highly recommend that. In my opinion, it is one of his best books.
FutureSoror Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 I read it a couple years ago as an accompaniment to reading a large part of the Old testament. I've been thinking of picking it up again, because I've forgotten most of it.
InHisHands381 Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 I just bought a Scott Hahn book...The Lamb's Supper....I intend to read it Thursday on the airplane to Europe...
Oik Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 I while back ago, I would recommend G. K. Chesterton and Scot Hahn to everyone. A couple of times, the other people around be say, "They aren't the only Catholic writers, ya' know!" What zingers, but true i guess. Still like Scott Hahn and G. K. Chesterton though.
Fides_et_Ratio Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 (Chesterton rocks. I love Chesterton.) My Intro. to Scripture class in Gaming was all about covenant theology--that was pretty much how we handled the OT-- the covenants, and then looked at the New Covenant in the NT, and how all previous covenants were fulfilled in Christ, etc. A lot of the class was taken from Scott Hahn's book.
