Jack Deere’s view of revelation and Scripture in light of the other readings

In module 10, you will write a 10- to 15-page response paper to Jack Deere’s Surprised by the Voice of God. You will evaluate Deere’s view of revelation and Scripture in light of the other readings for this course and the class discussions. You will evaluate his presentation for biblical accuracy and critique the cogency of his arguments. You will determine whether you think his view accurately handles the biblical text and explain your answer, giving specific evidence. You will identify points where you don’t believe he has accurately described the doctrines of Scripture. You are encouraged to be gracious and fair in your response, not derisive or dismissive. Write as though Deere were going to read your critique. This written project is not intended to be a summary of the material nor a book review. Rather, it is expected that you will demonstrate critical thinking skills as you evaluate Deere’s presentation. Note that the focus of the response paper is to be on Deere’s view of revelation and the related doctrines of Scripture. You should focus the paper on these issues and not become entangled in the numerous other issues raised in this book.
