Translating Καταβραβευέτω [“Disqualify,” Nrsv] In Colossians 2.18, Kent Yinger Jan 2003

Translating Καταβραβευέτω [“Disqualify,” Nrsv] In Colossians 2.18, Kent Yinger

Faculty Publications - Portland Seminary

Available lexical evidence argues for a translation such as ‘condemn,’ ‘injure,’ ‘victimize,’ rather than with glosses connected to athletic imagery as in most translations, commentaries, and lexical aids.

Enough Is Enough: 24 Hours/Day Is Enough, James Y.S. Wong Jan 2003

Enough Is Enough: 24 Hours/Day Is Enough, James Y.S. Wong

Doctor of Ministry

Today many people are crying for more time. Many pastors are also. The contents of this writing endeavor to address the issue of time starvation among overworked pastors. My conviction is that the God-given 24 hours a day is enough. God will never ask from us what we cannot give. Often we are victims of our own aspirations. The discussions and solutions provided in this writing fit into the shared values of pastoral ministry: a) our faithfulness to our ministerial call; b) our dedication to the Lord; and c) our love for His church and His people. Based upon these …

Stephen King, Kathleen A. Heininge Jan 2003

Stephen King, Kathleen A. Heininge

Faculty Publications - Department of English

Stephen King, popularly known as “The King of Horror,” is one of the more prolific and successful writers of the twentieth century. Despite a reputation for writing only horror and gore, however, King has written works that do not qualify as either horror or supernatural but rather are thoughtful, intricate slices of human experience that often cause us to reflect on our own childhoods, not always with fond nostalgia. He encourages his readers to get in touch with their own memories of what being a child really means, and innocence has little to do with King's version of childhood. Believing …

An Empirical Look At The Ecumenical Diaconate In The United States, Benjamin L. Hartley Jan 2003

An Empirical Look At The Ecumenical Diaconate In The United States, Benjamin L. Hartley

Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology

The growth of interest in the "escalating phenomenon" of the diaconate in a number of denominations- predominantly in the North Atlantic region - has been well-documented in ecumenical dialogues, denominational reports, and scholarly publications. A number of articles have placed the diaconate in the larger context of ecclesiological reflection, but an accurate picture of the practical reality of individual deacons and their perceptions about their ministry has rarely been examined beyond anecdotal evidence? A better picture of the views and experiences of deacons is vital for at least two reasons. First, it is necessary to support ecumenical cooperation in the …


Teaching The Bible Along The Devotional/Academic Faultline: An Incarnational Approach To The Quarrel Between Love And Knowledge, Roger Newell Jan 2003

Teaching The Bible Along The Devotional/Academic Faultline: An Incarnational Approach To The Quarrel Between Love And Knowledge, Roger Newell

Faculty Publications - George Fox School of Theology

There seem to be two irreconcilable approaches to reading the Bible, and these often collide in an undergraduate’s first college class in religion. Students from a devotional background find the scholarly approach a disappointment compared with their preferred way of reading. Yet upon closer examination the limits of an exclusively devotional way or an exclusively academic way soon become apparent. A way beyond this impasse is described as an incarnational approach, which seeks to honor the integrity of the literary, cultural, and historical features of the Bible while also taking seriously the personal faith of both student and instructor. This …

A Discernment-Based Model Of Church Decision-Making, Charles M. Orwiller Jan 2003

A Discernment-Based Model Of Church Decision-Making, Charles M. Orwiller

Doctor of Ministry

The problem addressed in this paper is: How can the decision-making process for business meetings in First Denver Friends Church be a process dependent upon paying attention to Christ, understanding His direction, and following in holy obedience? This problem will be addressed by proposing a model for decision-making in which the corporate discernment of God's direction and the corporate affirmation of obedience to that discerned direction take place in an environment of worship. Decision-making in the local church requires paying attention to Christ, our Head, then following His direction. Worship is the means by which a congregation attends to Christ. …

John Punshon's Reasons For Hope: The Faith And Future Of The Friends Church*: A Review, Arthur O. Roberts Jan 2003

John Punshon's Reasons For Hope: The Faith And Future Of The Friends Church*: A Review, Arthur O. Roberts

Quaker Religious Thought

In 1969 Elton Trueblood attributed the forfeiture of values in our culture in part to academicians and looked for recovery from the Christian intellectual who “has access to both the reasons of the heart and the reasons of the head” (A Place to Stand, p. 31). Friend John Punshon is such a Christian intellectual. His Reasons for Hope is a tract for the times. In language hortatory as well as analytical the book tugs at heart and mind. I found myself pondering it prayerfully as well as reading it critically.

Inner Sharing: Spiritual Direction And Pastoral Care, Richard E. Lamontagne Dec 2002

Inner Sharing: Spiritual Direction And Pastoral Care, Richard E. Lamontagne

Doctor of Ministry

Spiritual direction is a way of assisting people in their growth toward spiritual maturity. Yet, spiritual direction remains a relatively unknown and undervalued link to the life of the spirit despite people's need for guidance. Often, ministers who are normally expected to offer spiritual direction are reluctant to engage in it. This dissertation proposes to reassure clergy and encourage them to risk engagement in spiritual direction. The first section seeks to clarify spiritual direction by providing definitions and distinguishing it from similar disciplines. The second section situates spiritual direction in the history, tradition, and present conversation of the Church. The …
