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.

On Following Jesus, Paul N. Anderson Jan 1994

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 Jan 1994

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.

We receive power to overcome life's obstacles and temptations. All things indeed become new, and creation even takes on another smell."

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!"

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 …
