Calvin College History Professor Wins Fulbright Scholarship

Calvin professor Young Kim recently won a Fulbright Research Grant to study a Palestinian church father who wrote a manual on heresies.

According to excerpts from Calvin College:

Kim has recently landed a Fulbright Research Grant to study Epiphanius—a church father born in Palestine—and write a book about his life and work. “He wrote this large manual that described the beliefs, practices and refutations of 80 heresies,” Kim said. The work is called the Panarion, Greek for “Medicine Chest,” and it cautions against, among many others, the Manichaeans, the Origenists, various ‘Gnostic’ sects and the different derivations of non-Nicene theology.
