Spanish Homiletics Course, Wayne R. Chapman

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

HOW THE COURSE WAS WRITTEN

The beginning point for me in writing this course was the interest and knowledge given to me from the times I watched my father write other extension courses. After classroom as well as independent study at W.E.S. in the area of Theological Education by Extension, , I became interested in the direct application of the material learned through the teaching of Extension courses in Peru.

Theses and Dissertations

Since the instigation of the first language training mission in December, 1961, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been vitally interested in the language instruction of its missionaries.

Reading Programs In Theology: Forms Of Church And Ministry, Erwin L. Lueker

Concordia Theological Monthly

The study of the church can begin with almost any point of philosophy or theology. The church is Christology-Christ taking form in the world.

The church is wisdom-the pillar and ground of truth. The church is semantics-the Word taking form not in sign or sound but in flesh and blood. The church is eschatology-the little flock which has received, is received, and will receive the Kingdom. The church is family-a mother nourishes her …
