Jordan Hylden is a Th.D. candidate in theology and ethics at Duke University Divinity School. His research interests include Christian theological ethics, political theology, pacifism and the just war tradition, theological interpretation of Scripture, the doctrine of justification, and Catholic social thought. He holds an M.Div. from Duke Divinity School and an A.B. from Harvard College, and is an ordained priest in the Episcopal Church.
While George Lindbeck and Kevin Vanhoozer provide helpful insights toward the recovery of what Lindbeck calls the “classic pattern of biblical interpretation” for the church, Robert Jenson’s proposal for joining together the biblical canon with the apostolic creed is the most fruitful way out of today’s methodological chaos.
