Universal Design For Worship, Barbara J. Newman
Universal Design For Worship, Barbara J. Newman
Symposium on Worship Archive
“Universal design” is now standard for architecture: we don’t want to retrofit buildings to make them accessible, we want to build them that way from the start. What would it look like for this vision to be extended to the worship services we plan and lead? What if we didn’t need to retrofit our planning to be accommodating to persons at all levels of ability and disability, but planned them that way from the start?
Wording The Sunday Sermon, Cornelius Plantinga Jr.
Wording The Sunday Sermon, Cornelius Plantinga Jr.

One of the preacher’s big challenges is finding language for the Sunday sermon that will engage the most of her or his listeners. But what kind of language is that? What are some of its features? Using multiple examples from published sermons, this workshop will identify, discuss, and recommend certain excellent features of well-worded Sunday sermons.

Preparing To Remember The Reformation, Robert J. Batastini, Peter Choi, Karin Maag, David Mcnutt, Mark Noll, Lisa Weaver, John D. Witvliet, Joyce Ann Zimmerman Phd
Symposium on Worship Archive
In 2017, churches around the world, both Protestant and Catholic, will mark the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation. How we mark this milestone will say as much about us, and our own sense of identity, as it does about the events of five centuries ago. Indeed, the history of past milestone anniversaries (100, 200, 300, and 400 years ago) reveals stunningly different ways of remembering this history—and some crucial lessons about what to avoid this time around. Come for a fast-paced tour of histories of the Reformation and vigorous discussion by both Protestant and Catholic leaders about how we …

Worship With Gladness: Beginning A Conversation About Worship's Deep Meaning, Joyce Ann Zimmerman Phd
Symposium on Worship Archive
We might lament that the religious culture in society is in decline. Or we can raise glad hearts that many people are intensely committed to the deep meaning and purpose of worship. This workshop will explore key issues for worship today, elements of worship, God’s Word in worship, baptismal identity and worship, and the relation of worship to everyday living.
The Promise And Peril Of Preaching For Revival: Lessons From The Life Of George Whitefield, Peter Choi
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 …

Hymns, canticles, and choral repertoire from several publishers will be featured.

This is a guided conversation time where participants are encouraged to share their perspectives and observations. Musical examples will be shared.

Consideration will be given to both the liturgical season and the character and needs of the congregation.
How Can Art Bring About Such A Great Thing?, David Mcnutt
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 …
Marking Time: Dressing The Church For The Liturgical Year, Deborah Sokolove
Marking Time: Dressing The Church For The Liturgical Year, Deborah Sokolove
Symposium on Worship Archive
The seasons and special days of the church year are often marked visually by artworks that come and go. In this session we will examine art as a congregational practice in which both adults and children produce banners, paraments, installations, and other occasional artworks that take their place in the worship space alongside those elements that are permanent. Participants are encouraged to send images of what their own congregations do to dress their churches as a way of marking liturgical time.
Compare And Contrast: Learning From The Visual Arts Across Christian Traditions, Lisa J. Deboer
Compare And Contrast: Learning From The Visual Arts Across Christian Traditions, Lisa J. Deboer
Symposium on Worship Archive
Many Protestant congregations are eagerly and actively working to recover the riches of the visual realm to deepen their worship and communal life. And while much good work and learning is occurring within these congregations, what might we learn from a close examination of the how the visual arts function in Orthodox and Catholic settings? This session highlights three theological questions regarding worship and congregational life, raised by a cross-confessional comparison of the role of the visual arts.

Women And Early Twentieth-Century Lds Missiology, Louisa Greear, Michael Mackay
Women And Early Twentieth-Century Lds Missiology, Louisa Greear, Michael Mackay
Journal of Undergraduate Research
As a research assistant for Dr. Michael MacKay and Dr. Gregory Wilkinson, I transcribed journals from missionaries in the Frist Japan Mission. As I transcribed these journals, a particular person really jumped out at me: Edna Harker Thomas. Sister Thomas was not only the wife of the mission president, Elbert Thomas (later a United States Senator), she was also a college educated woman who was involved in the goings on of the mission. Through researching about her life, I was able to gain a greater understanding of her role and the role of women in general in early twentieth-century missiology.
Their Hispanic Heritage: The Preservation Of Different Cultures In Lds Spanish-Speaking Congregations, Jeremy Ingersoll, Gerrit Van Dyk
Their Hispanic Heritage: The Preservation Of Different Cultures In Lds Spanish-Speaking Congregations, Jeremy Ingersoll, Gerrit Van Dyk
Journal of Undergraduate Research
In the early ‘90s, ninety-four Hispanic members of the LDS church were interviewed by the BYU Redd Center for Western Studies and provided oral histories. All interviewees were from a Spanish-speaking country or were the children of parents who came to the United States from a Spanish-speaking country, and all but a few were living in Utah or California. This gave us the opportunity to look into the past of Hispanic Latter-day Saints in Utah, and compare it to those living in a different environment in California. We looked at these oral histories with the hope to determine to what …
Tracing Paintings In Napoleonic Italy: Archival Records And The Spatial And Contextual Displacement Of Artworks, Nora Gietz
Artl@s Bulletin
Using a Venetian case study from the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy, this article demonstrates how archival research enables us to trace the spatial life of artworks. The Revolutionary and Napoleonic policy of the suppression of religious corporations, followed by the appropriation of their patrimony, as well as the widespread looting of artworks, led to the centralisation of patrimony in newly established museums in the capitals of the Empire and its satellite kingdoms. This made the geographical and contextual displacement, transnationalisation, and change in the value of artworks inevitable.
Latinos, Education, And The Church: Toward A Culturally Democratic Future, Antonia Darder
Latinos, Education, And The Church: Toward A Culturally Democratic Future, Antonia Darder
Journal of Catholic Education
The article provides a comprehensive critical analysis of key issues that are deeply salient to an examination of the relationship of Latinos, education and the Church. The status of Latinos and their educational participation in the United States is systematically presented through a critical theoretical lens that brings questions of historical, political, and economic inequalities and their consequences to the center of this interpretive interrogation. With this foundational piece in place, the article moves to the concept of cultural democracy as an important philosophical principle in our work to transform the education of Latino children within Catholic schools and beyond. …
