Cassidy's "John's Gospel In New Perspective: Christology And The Realities Of Roman Power" - Book Review, Paul N. Anderson
Cassidy's "John's Gospel In New Perspective: Christology And The Realities Of Roman Power" - Book Review, Paul N. Anderson
Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology
Richard Cassidy's latest book builds on some of the previous work he has done regarding the socio-political background of Luke/Acts, but now he applies his historical investigation into the policies of Roman authorities —as enacted toward Christians around the turn of the first century CE —to an understanding of various motifs and emphases in the Gospel of John. His thesis is stated succinctly at the outset: "In depicting Jesus' identity and mission within his Gospel, the evangelist John was concerned to present elements and themes that were especially significant for Christian readers facing Roman imperial claims and for any who …
Standing On Unstable Grounds: A Reexamination Of The Wlbt-Tv Case, Steven Classen
Standing On Unstable Grounds: A Reexamination Of The Wlbt-Tv Case, Steven Classen
Faculty Publications - Department of Communication and Cinematic Arts
In 1962, the "Jackson Nonviolent Movement" began to change business as usual in Mississippi. The upstart organization, comprised largely of local teens, targeted prominent Jackson businesses, demanding that basic employment and consumer rights be extended to African Americans. They insisted that the segregation, degradation, and physical abuse grimly familiar to black consumers in the white marketplace be confronted and addressed. In the spring, when a pregnant African-American mother was verbally and physically assaulted by a white grocer, the Movement called a church meeting, distributed leaflets, and led a successful boycott against the store. Months later, this strategy was reemployed with …

The Faith-Learning Integration Movement In Christian Higher Education: Slogan Or Substance?, Ken Badley
The Faith-Learning Integration Movement In Christian Higher Education: Slogan Or Substance?, Ken Badley
Faculty Publications - College of Education
The challenge of thinking Christianly in a secular world is a favorite topic of discussion among Christian scholars, especially among those of evangelical persuasion. But what does it mean to integrate faith and learning? The concept is fraught with semantic and conceptual ambiguity. Through a historical lens, Ken Badley delineates the varieties of meaning implied by the integration-of-faith-and-learning construct as a useful first step in advancing coherent scholarly dialogue. Badley includes a compendium of recommended readings.

On Following Jesus, Paul N. Anderson
On Following Jesus, Paul N. Anderson
Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology
Excerpt: "Some Christian groups ask, "How can we be certain of our salvation?" Others ask, "How can we be sure we are right?" Still others ask, "How can we do good in the world?" The Quaker question, however, is, "How can we be, most radically and effectively, true followers of Jesus?" Interestingly, when this question is lived faithfully, the others tend to take care of themselves."
Transforming Worship, Paul N. Anderson
Transforming Worship, Paul N. Anderson
Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology
Excerpt: "Transforming worship is both impressive and expressive. As we receive God's love for us and return our love for God, we find ourselves changed, transformed, renewed from the inside out. New insights help us live in the newness of life. Greater sensitivities emerge as we come to view those around us through the eyes of Jesus. We receive power to overcome life's obstacles and temptations. All things indeed become new, and creation even takes on another smell."
A People Of Vision, Paul N. Anderson
A People Of Vision, Paul N. Anderson
Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology
Excerpt: "It is an absolute delight to worship and serve among a people of vision. Evangelical Quakers attempt great things for God because we continually ask the question: 'What would God have us do?" And a great deal gets done because people earnestly desire to follow God's leadings and further His work in the world. That's an inspiration!"
Anything Against Anyone, Paul N. Anderson
Anything Against Anyone, Paul N. Anderson
Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology
Excerpt: "He grieved her loss. Without a word, she'd walked out on him after eight years of marriage. He didn't even have a clue that the relationship had been growing intolerable for her. Sure, they had their problems, but didn't all relationships? It just caught him totally unaware, and now there was nothing he could do to retrieve, let alone rebuild the relationship. The way she left had not only put an end to what had been, but he felt it also closed the door to future possibilities. Her "No!" was final. Their future was nil. The investments they'd made …
