its Dordt College What would Dordt be without B.J. Haan, its president? I have no idea. But this is clear: with “B.J.”, Dordt is not a conservative college, as many seem to think, but an institution where Abraham Kuyper’s vision of Chris— tian learning and political action is being revitalized, right in the heart of “middle America.” This may well be one of the most significant cultural developments within reformed protestantism in the USA today. Pittsburgh The Pittsburgh Coalition for Christian Outreach is a unique evangelism out reach in the USA. Started in the early seventies, it now reaches forty college and university campuses in western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio and Virginia. It has a staff of 146! The Coalition is now reorganizing its staff training program so that regular participants can obtain a master’s degree from Fuller Theological Seminary in California after four or five sum mer courses, plus residence requirements at Fuller. The Coalition has asked the ICS to teach the Christian world view course in this program every year. We will accept this invitation, of course, since it provides an excellent opportunity for the ICS to make an academic contribution to an intensive college mission outreach. Christian Educational Services (CES) now has its headquarters at Chatham College in Pittsburgh. It cooperates informally with the Coalition, and sponsors courses in Christian philosophy on several campuses, taught by Peter Steen and his enthusiastic staff, including Bill and Amy Rowe, who spent three years at the ICS. Pete Steen has introduced more students to the ICS in recent years than anyone else. The CES is now preparing exten sive bibliographies on reformational thought in nearly every discipline, with photocopies of materials made available at cost price. Take note! Here’s the address: Christian Educational Services, Chatham College, Box 307, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15232, USA.
Wilmington, Delaware The mid-Atlantic chapter of the AACS has sponsored a fall conference for ten years. This year it was held in Wilmington, Delaware. The AACS is still a source of controversy in the reformed and presbyterian churches of this area. This is in part a reflection of the difficulty some reformed and presbyterian churches experience in accepting a distinctly reformed conception of the in trinsic link between religion and culture. The AACS will have to restudy its presence in the area between Boston and Washington D.C., the heart of American culture and politics.
These are some highlights. I am profoundly grateful to the Lord for the depth of conviction that I found wherever I went. On this basis, I have great hopes for the expanding vision of Christian scholarship in Canada and the United States.

Meanwhile the children too were led in a celebration of life as God’s child ren. With the help of very capable leaders, they enjoyed crafts and spent whatever time was available to work on a musical about the parables of Jesus. The sharing of their special songs and the musical added much to the feeling of community there and to the joy of the whole conference. ( The weekend was a healthy, joyous celebration in praise to God for the luxury of His creation. We became aware of the depth of being rich in Christ, and our subsequent responsibility to give as freely as we have re ceived. Our God is one who, instead of five easy steps, gives us abundant life. Praise His Name!
Year-old subscription program has 253 subscribers
In January of 1978 the AACS set up a subscription program called “AACS Academic Papers.” Subscribers to this program receive a total of 10 papers for a fee of $15. Each month a list of five or six selections is sent out to all subscribers, from which they can then order as few or as many papers as they wish. To date there are 253 subscribers to this program. Of these, 111 come from the United States, 113 from Canada and 29 from countries around the world. Included in the 253 subscribers are 28 libraries. Over a fourth of the subscriptions come from people with whom AACS has never had contact before. These people were reached through a general mailing to all Christian col— leges in the United States and Canada——a total of about 600 colleges, and through small ads placed on the AACS mailing list, so that they can receive our other material as well. Since the program began, we have sent out a total of over 1700 papers. The AACS is grateful that this new service has been so well received. One subscriber from Utah wrote us, “This is a tremendous idea——it’s one way for me to get involved with the work you’re doing at ICS. I’d like to be a part of the work and these papers are a beginning.” A minister from Scotland recently wrote us, “I find some of these papers very helpful in deed-—helpful both as a research student working for a Ph.D. and as a pastor.”
We welcome new subscribers to this program——if you are interested just fill in the form below.
I would like to subscribe to “AACS Academic Papers.” I enclose $15. Please send me the lists of selections that have been offered over the past few months.
Please send me more information on this program.

I am a librarian at a Jesuit university, and have just catalogued God, History and Historians by Dr. C.T. Mclntire.. . .1 will be so privileged to read the book before anyone else——such a nice benefit-of being a librarian!. A Catholic nun who is teaching history courses here told me that she would be much interested in offering a course in historiography in Christian perspective... .Also, one of my former bosses who gives the Sunday Masses at ,one of the biggest Catholic churches in Tokyo often uses Dr. Seerveld’s book rto prepare his sermons. And one of the biggest excitements for me was to loan my two volumes of New Critique to a close friend who is a Jesuit philo sopher... . So here I am, at the Jesuit run university, still trying to put into everyday practice what you people have taught me... Japan
Last week I just got hold of your newsletter, Perspective. My heart was really moved by some of the articles I read in it. Your task of wanting to present the truth of God to the whole man is the best approach. I am a Thodesian, but at present I am here in South Africa studying for the Gospel Ministry at a Reformed Theological School. God willing, I aim at going back to Rhodesia and serve my people with the Word of God. I think you have heard of what ishappening in that country. Whether the struggle is between white and black or between Western ideologies and Eastern ideologies that is another matter. I think in Rhodesia we need people in all walks of life who are armoured by the Word of the Living God. This is my own conviction. I have seen that you are aiming at equipping people with the Word of God in all spheres of life. Please, I have no money to pay but I ask you to put me on your mailing list to receive the Perspective and all the other valuable papers you have. Please also send me papers dealing with Marxism from a Christian point of view. (i South Africa
I appreciate the stimulation and assistance provided by AACS materials in my previous position as a university campus pastor. Since the congregation I am now serving includes a number of faculty members and graduate students at local universities, I would appreciate continuing to receive your academic materials in my new work. Ohio
Your work was first introduced to me through a lecturer in Sociology in Glasgow (Scotland). In establishing our new venture here in Britain, the Koinonia School of Christian Practice, we are having to gather almost from scratch a library of appropriate books. Very little is being published in Britain, or being made generally available. We would be very glad of any booklists that you might have of books that you either use, stock, or what ever. Since, like all UK Christian ventures these days, everything has to be done on a shoestring, we would be glad of any information about discounts or publishers’ grants, etc. Please pray for us! England
Professor , who is on your mailing list under our university, is no longer employed with us. Please remove him from your list.
