lukeprog on the Common Sense Atheist blog posts a surprisingly critical review of Bart Ehrman's Misquoting Jesus. Well, perhaps not surprising. Clearly, lukeprog knows something about textual criticism and, particularly, textual criticism of the Bible.
Greg Boyd on the Christus Victor blog offers a book list for egg-heads based on his reading for his forth-coming book, The Myth of the Blueprint. This is an excellent review of the recent scholarly literature on the influence of Hellenistic philosophy on the Church Fathers. I've barely skimmed the list and it looks fascinating.
Dave Spots on the Cap'n Salty's Long Voyage blog reviews Journal of Early Christian Studies 16,1.

Pastor Bob Cornwall on the Ponderings on a Faith Journey reviews Philip Jenkin's book, The Lost History of Christianity. Okay, this isn't quite a patristics book, but it does deal with the patristic era outside the Graeco-Roman world, so fair enough.
Brendon on the Christian Book: Orthodoxy reviews Rodney Goodacre's A Patristic Greek Reader.
Ben Blackwell on the Dunelm Road blog calls attention to an important patristic resource, Biblia Patristica which is now available online.

Hi Phil
Lots of great reading. Thank you!
Could I petition for a change in the caption you've given mine? Dionysius of Alexandria was _against_ John the Apostle having written Revelation, rather than for it. (The post was more about his methods than his conclusions, though.)
Thank you for keeping the Carnival going. It's one of my favorite reads every month.
Take care & God bless
Anne / WF
Weekend Fisher;
Sorry about that. I've corrected my mistake.
Peace,
Phil
Thanks for touching up the title; sorry to be so nitpicky.
I have about a dozen things here to read now! Thank you!
Anne / WF
Roger;
Thanks. This is what I get for trying to work on the carnival while still sick. I hope there aren't many more.
Phil
Thank you for the nod in my direction, Mr Snider. I'm flattered to be included in a 'Patristics Carnival' even though I've never tried to engage in 'patristics' per se.
I should point out by way of clarification, however, that while my and my wife's e-mail screen name and hence my Blogger ID is 'aaronandbrighid', it's really just me, 'Aaron', posting on the blog. Not only does Brighid not contribute, she sometimes tries to hinder my blogging efforts!
