    Moral Minority: the Evangelical Left in an Age of Conservatism

    MORAL MINORITY POLITICS AND CULTURE IN MODERN AMERICA Series Editors Margot Canaday, Glenda Gilmore, Michael Kazin, and Thomas J. Sugrue Volumes in the series narrate and analyze po liti cal and social change in the broadest dimensions from 1865 to the present, including ideas about the ways people have sought and wielded power in the public sphere and the language and institutions of politics at all levels— local, national, and transnational. The series is motivated by a desire to reverse the fragmentation of modern U.S. history and to encourage synthetic perspectives on social movements and the state, on gender, race, and labor, and on intellectual history and pop u lar culture.

    Wheaton College Case Study

    Case Study The Doors of Wheaton College Travel due west of Chicago nearly 30 miles to find the suburban community of Wheaton, Illinois. This picturesque small city is noteworthy for its history, notable citizenry, and its namesake college. Wheaton College is a Christian, liberal arts college and graduate school with “twin traditions of quality academics and deep faith.” It consistently ranks very high among liberal arts colleges for undergraduate teaching and always within the top 100 liberal arts colleges. The college was founded in 1860. One year previous, William Wheaton, one of the founders of the city, had donated land to the former Illinois Institute which had been founded by Wesleyan Methodists. A new President renamed the Institute to Wheaton College in honor of their benefactor and officially separated the college from any denominational support. This man, Jonathan Blanchard, was a dedicated reformer and staunch abolitionist. Under his leadership, the college became a stop on the Underground Railroad. He also lobbied for universal co-education. As a result, Wheaton College was the only school in Illinois with a college-level women’s program at the time. In 1866 the college also graduated its first student of color. Blanchard Hall Aptly, the oldest building on campus is named Blanchard Hall. Built in 1853, it sits at the center of campus with striking Romanesque architecture. Its prominent octagonal tower, and the remainder of its envelope, is constructed of native Illinois limestone with the last stone set in 1872. Today, Blanchard Hall is home to the offices of the President, Historic Blanchard Hall is an icon Provost, Vice-Presidents and Academic Affairs as well as at the center of campus.

    18-BookReviews JETS 42.3 Page 477 Friday, August 27, 1999 3:58 PM JETS 42/3 (September 1999) 477–555 BOOK REVIEWS Dictionary of Biblical Imagery. Edited by Leland Ryken, James C. Wilhoit, and Tremper Longman III. Downers Grove: InterVarsity, 1998, xxi + 1058, $39.99. Initially one ˜nds some irony in the fact that an inherently left-brained genre—the dictionary—was chosen to promote a right-brained approach to the Bible, the very approach consciously taken by this new and highly touted reference work from Inter- Varsity (henceforth DBI). The book contains a number of attractive features, but it retains signi˜cant weaknesses that may threaten its longevity as “an indispensable reference tool” (in the words of the preface). More on these shortly. According to the editors, the purview of the DBI is “the imagery, metaphors and archetypes of the Bible,” terms for which the introduction gives extensive de˜nitions. There is a wide spectrum of topics, including each book of the Bible, most major Biblical characters, many topics that one would ˜nd in standard Bible dictionaries (e.g. heaven, sacri˜ce), as well as a number with a literary ˘avor (e.g. plot motifs, travel stories). Happily, most of the articles possess an appropriate and readable length. Irksomely, all of them are unsigned (a list of contributors resides at the front), since the editors, we discover in the preface, had to revise “the vast majority” of them and leave their own mark upon many of the entries, sometimes at the expense of the original author’s. The book’s attractive features start with its title.

    Those Familiar with the Conservative Reformed Subculture in the United

    WTJ 72 (2010): 135-51 DÉJÀ VU ALL OVER AGAIN? THE CONTEMPORARY REFORMED SOTERIOLOGICAL CONTROVERSY IN HISTORICAL PERSPECf IVE WILLIAM B. EVANS hose familiar with the conservative Reformed subculture in the United TStates have likely noticed considerable recent debate on matters soterio- logical (i.e., issues having to do with the doctrine of salvation). Issues long thought settled have emerged with new vigor, new questions have emerged, and long- forgotten or even suppressed aspects of the Reformed tradition have been brought to light. For example, the doctrine of justification by faith, thought by many to be the material principle of the Reformation and a hallmark of Reformed Christianity, is now under intense discussion in a variety of circles. Related to this are, to use John Murray's influential terminology, issues of redemption accomplished (i.e., the work of Christ) and redemption applied (i.e., the nature of the believer's union with Christ and the means of grace). In this article we will look briefly at the prehistory of these matters, where we will discover that there is less novelty in the current discussions than some might initially think. We will then attempt a rough taxonomy of the parties in the debate. Finally, we will offer some observations about the nature and implica­ tions of these debates. I. Prologue Reformed soteriologe particularly in America, has been anything but mono­ lithic. At the risk of oversimplifying a complex process of historical develop­ ment, let us begin with Calvin, who set a formal agenda for most subsequent Reformed thinking by highlighting the Pauline theme of union with Christ.
