As the opportunities for social, economic, and educational advancement became feasible for the black however, he became less satisfied with his …

"One thing American Indians don't lack is Indian experts. All told, there are probably more experts than Indians. For example, on the poverty-stricken Oglala Sioux reservation at Pine Ridge, S.D., sixty-four research projects are currently under way with a combined cost in academic salaries alone that would feed all the hungry children on the reservation ...

The Perception Of Sacred Space: The Case Of Utah And Other Sacred Places In Mormondom, Roger L. Henrie

Theses and Dissertations

Sacred space is that part of the total environment which is perceived as sacred by individuals and religious groups. Sacred places may be conveniently divided into five generic categories: mystical, historical, and functional sacred places; and homelands, and places connected with the future fulfillment of prophecy. Sacred places of all five types are found in Mormondom. The temples, as mystical sacred places, were the most sacred. The Sacred Grove was the most sacred historical place. Utah was the most sacred present homeland. The future City of Zion, believed by many to be built in the future in Jackson County, Missouri, …

The Christology Of Mark, Gregory L. Jackson

Theses and Dissertations (Comprehensive)

In this thesis I intend to investigate the three layers of tradition in the Christology of Mark: that of the historical Jesus, the Plaestinian community, and the Hellenistic Church. The result of this work will be a clearer picture of Mark’s contribution to the Christology of the Church. I propose that Mark constructed his gospel to bring out the role of Jesus as the Suffering Servant who was exalted through his crucifixion and resurrection.

In an attempt to further clarify this human-religious expression the following points will be considered: (1) the reasons for denominational change through time; (2) the association of church location and population with corresponding rural -urban shifts; and (3) the style …
