Derek and Alastair are joined this week by guests Dr. Kevin Vanhoozer and Gerald Hiestand. They've each co-written books (different books, no less), which you can find [here](http://www.amazon.com/The-Pastor-Public-Theologian-Reclaiming/dp/0801097711/ref=pd%5Fsim%5F14%5F1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1AS3KZFNJFST81XRJGXK&ref=mereorthodoxy.com) and [here](http://www.amazon.com/The-Pastor-Theologian-Resurrecting-Ancient/dp/031051682X?ref=mereorthodoxy.com). In their discussion, they talk a bit about the Center for Pastor Theologians Conference, which you can learn more about [here](http://www.cptconference.com/?ref=mereorthodoxy.com).
