Were it not for this man, my Fuller Seminary experience would be vastly different. I do not even want to imagine it. Thus far, I have learned from Dr. Scholer not only information and theories about the New Testament, early Christianity, and women’s roles in all of the above, but I have also gleaned the necessary conviction for a gracious spirit in scholarly discussion. He is both progressive and kindly compassionate. For those who don’t know, David Scholer has colorectal cancer, which has spread to both lungs. He has outlived all expectations, and he does so with smiles, laughter, and generosity. As for me, I look forward to diving into the Greek text of Revelation with him in his class on it this Fall. Keep praying for him; he is a blessing.

Pat, you remind me that I need to drop David a card. The Scholers were very good to me during my 2 times visiting Pasadena as a guest prof.
