The Promise And Peril Of Preaching For Revival: Lessons From The Life Of George Whitefield, Peter Choi

Symposium on Worship Archive

Seasons of renewal are God’s gift to the church. They are also occasions for controversy and division. Together we will reflect on one of history’s greatest revival preachers to understand not only how revivals come but what follows in their aftermath. “God’s anointed barnstormer,” according to J. I. Packer, and “the greatest English preacher who has ever lived,” in the estimation of Martin Lloyd-Jones, George Whitefield also made crucial mistakes and had his fair share of regrets. To pay attention to the long duration of this famous preacher’s life is to learn both the promise and peril of revivals in …

How Can Art Bring About Such A Great Thing?, David Mcnutt Jan 2016

How Can Art Bring About Such A Great Thing?, David Mcnutt

Symposium on Worship Archive

How can a consideration of one of the most divisive issues during the Reformation helpfully inform the church’s corporate worship today? Questions surrounding the theology and practice of the church’s sacraments—including their number, their nature, and their function—were among the most hotly contested issues during the Reformation. Likewise, the category of sacrament has been appealed to in recent considerations of the arts and their place in the life of the church. In this session, participants will consider what we can learn from the sacramental life of the Reformed church and how that can inform our understanding of the potential role …

The seasons and special days of the church year are often marked visually by artworks that come and go.

Participants are encouraged to send images of what their own congregations do to dress their churches as a way of marking liturgical time.

Utopia And The Law And Literature Movement, Michael P. Malloy Jan 2016

Utopia And The Law And Literature Movement, Michael P. Malloy

UTOPIA500

Dr. Malloy kicked off the UTOPIA500 project with a presentation on Jan. 21, 2016. His paper, Utopia and the Law and Literature Movement, marked the quincentennial of the publication of Thomas More's novel Utopia in 1516. Dr. Malloy explored the meaning and implications of the concepts of utopia and dystopia. He argued, with colorful graphic support, that More's novel was a precursor to post-modernist literature, and that in our own time there has been a linguistic transformation of the concept of utopia to contemporary meanings that are often entirely independent of More's novel. Dr. Malloy concluded that More's novel is …
