A
much-published author of both scholarly and popular works, Dr. Maier's
novels include two historical documentaries: Pontius Pilate and The
Flames of Rome, as well as a theological thriller that became # 1
national bestseller in religious fiction: A Skeleton in God's Closet. A
sequel, More Than a Skeleton, appeared in 2003.
His non-fiction works include In the Fullness of
Time, a book that correlates secular evidence from the ancient world
impinging on Jesus and early Christianity; Josephus -- The Essential
Works, a new translation/commentary on writings of the first-century
Jewish historian; and Eusebius -- The Church History, a similar book on
the first Christian historian. More than five million Maier books are
now in print in twenty languages, as well as over 250 scholarly
articles and reviews in professional journals.
Dr. Maier lectures widely, appears frequently in national radio,
television, and newspaper interviews, and has received numerous awards.
He has also penned four children's books, and produced three four-hour
video series dealing with Jesus, St. Paul, and the early church.
The seminar is underwritten in part by Lutheran Church Extension Fund
and a grant from Trinity’s annual golf outing. Registration is $15,
which includes Dr. Maier’s entire presentation, morning coffee and
donuts, and a catered lunch. College and high school students can
register for
half price. To register, contact the office at Trinity – 262-242-2045,
or email Rick Adams at radams@trinityfreistadt.com.
The doors open at 8:30 a.m. for coffee and donuts with Dr. Maier on hand
to meet and greet, as well as sign his books. The seminar itself will
begin at 9:00 a.m. and conclude at around 3:00 p.m. A catered lunch
will be served at noon.
Trinity is an Ablaze-participating congregation, and is located at
10729 W. Freistadt Road in Mequon, about 3 miles north of Milwaukee.
