Earl Richard Lectures

I came across some useful on-line papers today at the Religious Studies Department at Loyola University. They have a lecture series there called the H. James Yamauchi, S.J. Lectures in Religion and several of these are available on-line, including some of interest to New Testament scholars and students:

Jesus, Mark and the Modern Reader
Earl Richard (Loyola University Yamauchi Lecture, October 22 2000)

The Gnostic Gospel of Thomas: A Lost, Secret Vision of Jesus
Earl Richard (Loyola University Yamauchi Lecture, October 17 1993)

The Rich Young Ruler or the Generous Centurion: Early Christianity and Worldly Possessions
