  • CITIZENS of HEAVEN on EARTH 20Th Sunday After Pentecost (October 18 • 2020)
    CITIZENS OF HEAVEN ON EARTH 20th Sunday after Pentecost (October 18 • 2020) BIBLE READING Matthew 22:15-22 REFLECTION People say that there are two things that are certain in life: death and taxes. Yes, we cannot avoid taxes as much as we cannot avoid death. Last year, a family in Tasmania was ordered by the court to pay over $2 million to the tax office. They were fined because they failed to pay income tax. They believed that paying taxes went against God’s will. For them Australian tax law was against God’s law, which was the supreme law of the land. “Transferring our allegiance from God to the Commonwealth would mean ... breaking the first commandment,” they said. They further argued that all the disasters that had happened in Australia were the results of people disobeying God’s law. But, the Judge, who gave the sentence, rightly disagreed. He reminded them that there nothing in the Bible that says, “Thou shall not pay tax!” 1 In the Judge’s view, the Bible says that “civil matters and the law of God operate in two different spheres.” 1 Unfortunately, this family’s behavior is not exclusive to them. There has always been a tendency amongst people of faith to separate themselves from the world. One of the most influential theologians in the 20th century is Richard Niebuhr He is well known for articulating five paradigms that Christians use to relate to the world: 1. Christ against culture. 2. Christ of culture. 3. Christ above culture. 4. Christ and culture in paradox.

  • A Draft for the Assignment
    THE MISSIONARY WOMEN IN THE INLAND OF AUSTRALIA AND THE AUSTRALIAN INLAND MISSION AS REPRESENTED IN BETH BECKETT’S LIFE MEMOIR Evi Eliyanah ([email protected]) Universitas Negeri Malang, Indonesia Abstract: This article looks at the gender dimension of religious missions adminis- tered by the Presbyterian Church in the inland Australia as represented in Beth Beck- ett’s life memoir written in 1947-1955. It is aimed at obtaining general ideas on the involvement of women, as the wives of missionaries, Focusing on the experience of Beth Beckett, it argues that her position as a wife of a missionary is problematic: on the one hand she did transgress the traditional idea of staying-home wife by choosing to travel along with her husband, but at the same time, she was still bound by the domestic side of the job. Key words: Australian Inland Mission, Beth Beckett, Memoir, Gender This article critically examines the gender dimension of the missions ad- ministered by the Presbyterian Church in the inland of Australia, known as the Australian Inland Mission (AIM). Looking at the role of women, especially the missionary wives in the missionary process: the roles they took up and their agency in being involved in the mission, the essay focuses on the experience of Beth Becket, an ex-AIM-nurse married to a patrol padre. Critically analyzing her memoirs, written in 1947-1955, the article offers general ideas on the in- volvement of women, as the wives of missionaries, in the mission field during the mid twentieth century. Bringing together the thoughts and ideas poured in the writings on women and the mission enterprise in the British colonies, the 107 108 TEFLIN Journal, Volume 21, Number 2, August 2010 memoirs will be scrutinized in terms of women agency and women’s specific roles on the mission.

  • The Flying Doctor Service
    May 17th, 1928: The Royal Flying Doctor Service was launched. • The Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia (RFDS) is one of the largest and most comprehensive aeromedical organisations in the world. • It provides emergency and primary health care services for those living in rural, remote and regional areas of Australia Started by Presbyterian Minister John Flynn, A.K.A. “Flynn of the inland”. • John Flynn, OBE, DD, was born at Moliagul, Victoria on 25/11/1880. • He was cared for in Sydney by his mother’s sister after his mother died during childbirth. • When he was five, he was reunited with his family at Snake Gully, near Ballarat. • Portrait of Flynn in his early 20s. Early experiences greatly influenced his life. • The Flynn family later moved to Sunshine, at the time a rural area, but now one of Melbourne's western suburbs. • The direction that his life was to take was influenced by tales about Australia's vast outback, told by his father's business partners, when they returned from an unsuccessful venture to the far north of the country. A brief stint of school teaching. • Graduating from secondary school in 1898 John began school teaching (qualifications?). Ormond College. • In 1903, he joined the ministry and studied theology at Ormond College, at the University of Melbourne. • Initially he financed his studies working at Church Home Missionary Centres around Victoria and in 1907 commenced a four year course in divinity at Melbourne University.

    NATIONAL MUSEUM REVIEW OF EXHIBITIONS AND PUBLIC PROGRAMS The NATIONAL ALLIANCE OF CHRISTIAN LEADERS hereby submit a request for a permanent exhibit for school and public use. As the Australian population consists of over 70% Christians, we believe the NMA in its Terms of Reference 2, should "Consider and make recommendations on the future priorities to the Museum, including the continuing relevance of its ACT, in the developement of permanent and temporary exhibitions and school and public programs" to include a permanent exhibit of the Christian History of our Nation. This would not necessarily be a Church History but one of the Christian influence of institutions, individuals, events and documents relating to our Christian heritage. Examples would be: The letters of convicts held by the Bible Society with other historical documents including information on Governor Macquarie's commencement of the Bible Society in March, 1817. We may be able to obtain the first Bible used in the first Church service, 17 Feb 1788, in Australia, by the Rev Richard Johson, held at Saint Philip's Church, Sydney. Pioneers such as Rev John Flynn, founder of the Flying Doctor Service and explorers such as Charles Sturt who demonstrated amazing character traits such as perseverance would be inspiring for school children. Governors such as Macquarie. Missionaries such as Lancelot Threlkeld who gave us the first translation of an Australian language,as spoken by the Awabakal. Establishment of Education.

  • Remembering the Man on the $20 Note
    Remembering the man on the $20 note John Flynn Foundation ORDER OF SERVICE 2019 Acknowledgement of First Peoples We acknowledge the sovereign First Peoples of these lands and waters where we meet. We pay our respects to their elders past and present and to all descendants of this nation who have cared for this place since creation. We also honour all other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples here today. 2 Flynn of the Inland Excerpt taken from “The Man on the Twenty Dollar Notes – Flynn of the Inland” by Everald Compton Flynn happily recalled one pleasant Sunday when he had attended a morning service here as one of the congregation. As he walked outside at the conclusion of worship, not wearing his clerical collar, an elderly woman approached him. She was totally unaware of who he was. “My friends tell me that you are a clergyman, sir,” the woman said. “Yes, I am,” Flynn replied politely. “And where is your congregation located?” Flynn waved his arm towards the horizon. “Out there where the sun goes down,” he said. “So, it is a country parish. Is it a large one?” “Actually, it is the largest in Australia. It covers about 80% of the continent.” 3 Her eyes widened in amazement, so he gave her the brief version of the Australian Inland Mission’s work. “Oh, my goodness me, you are Flynn of the Inland,” she stammered. “Actually, I am just John Flynn, a bush parson.” “I really don’t know what to say, Mr Flynn. I find it hard to comprehend that one man could have dreamed this vision, let alone achieved it.” “It has not been too difficult.

    “Offensively Australian:” Walkabout and Middlebrow Writers, 1927-1969 By Petrina Lee-Anne Osborne B.N., B.A. (Hons.), M.I.M. Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Tasmania October 2014 ii Declaration of Originality This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree of diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis, and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement made in the text of the thesis, nor does the thesis contain any material that infringes copyright. Petrina Osborne Authority of Access This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Petrina Osborne iii Abstract This thesis undertakes a postcolonial reading of a selection of the fiction and non- fiction of Ion Idriess, Arthur Upfield, Ernestine Hill and John K. Ewers. It argues that their published and unpublished writing and correspondence contributed to a mid-twentieth-century literary discourse concerning identity, race and nation. The connection this study makes between these four middlebrow writers is their relationship with Walkabout, an Australian middlebrow geographic magazine. All four writers were noted contributors to the journal. In several ways their writerly endeavours—both fiction and non-fiction—paralleled Walkabout‘s attempts to influence its readers‘ views concerning identity and nation, particularly in respect to rendering the lesser known and populated regions of Australia familiar to its readership.
