Stimulus and stuff... The latest issue of Stimulus is out, according to the Stimulus blog it includes both a couple of articles of particular interest to me:

• "Losing touch" by Mark Brown (of Bible Society in NZ)
• "Re-engaging with the Bible in a postmodern world" by Chris Marshall

According to the editorial (I have yet to see the paper copy):

Mark Brown presents solid evidence of Bible disengagement in New Zealand. A Bible Society survey showed only 21% of those church attendees surveyed read their Bible daily. 22% read the Bible weekly, while 57% read the Bible occasionally or hardly ever! Chris Marshall builds on this theme, discussing Bible disengagement in postmodernity. This article is followed by a facilitated discussion on this topic between Gavin Drew, of Stimulus, and Chris Marshall and John Crawshaw.

There's also a piece by Nicola H C (a fellow member of the Centre for the Theology of Gender group, and lecturer at BCNZ) reviewing Dawkins' book.
