Welcome to the CDH!
The Council on Dispensational Hermeneutics was started in 2008 to provide a forum for discussion among traditional-dispensational thinkers in the important areas of hermeneutics and theological method. Issues related to biblical interpretation have been broadly discussed in several forums, however, there was no official forum, for traditional-dispensational thinkers to discuss issues among themselves. The Council was inaugurated to meet that particular need. CDH convenes a two-day meeting annually in September rotating between various locations throughout North America. In addition to welcoming scholars, leaders, students, and community members, local pastors are warmly invited to attend the meetings so that the discussions among the academic community can be grounded in every day ministry concerns.
