Week 4- Bevans Chapter 4 (translation model)

The translation model is helpful in a very real way. Bevans' warnings towards swallowing the translation model are legitimate. However, I do feel like the translation model is right to assert that there is some essential core to the Gospel. This is the task we are all called to, a lifelong struggle of peeling off the layers of our culture and the layers of Jesus' culture, all the while noting where God may be incarnate. The translation model is a comprehensive and helpful tool.
