Editor’s note: After passing along an invitation to speak at an upcoming conference in Tulsa, Oklahoma, I asked Dr. Craig S. Keener about his current writing projects. – Raul Mock

Drs. Craig S. and Médine Moussounga Keener

In terms of things regularly coming out, there’s my blogsite, although I don’t produce blogs as fast as many people do!

In terms of books, the Acts commentary (Acts: An Exegetical Commentary: 15:1-23:35, Volume 3 came out in September, Volume 4 is scheduled for release in 2015) is pretty academic, so it would appeal to a narrower audience, but the 2nd edition of my revised background commentary (The IVP Bible Background Commentary: New Testament) came out this past year also. I am working on some more new books right now but none are due out in the next couple months.

Blessings,

Your fellow worker,

Craig
