Recovering Lost Voices with Stephen J. Patterson and Elizabeth Schrader Polczer April 19 – 21 

House of Hope is fortunate to have two leading biblical scholars for The Didier Seminar this year who are helping to recover lost voices from early Christianity: Stephen J. Patterson and Elizabeth Schrader Polczer. The Friday evening lecture will feature Stephen J. Patterson.

Stephen J. Patterson 

A scholar, teacher, and writer, Patterson is the George H. Atkinson endowed chair in Religious and Ethical Studies at Willamette University, where he teaches courses on the history of religion. He writes and lectures widely on the hidden histories of earliest Christianity, especially the lost gospels, Q, and the Gospel of Thomas.
