Freshmen: Party, Great Hall Evangelism vs. Covenant

Seriously now, how could Covenant College have anything to do with evangelism? Evangelism is what you do downtown,downtown,.or.or somewhere out in the world, and everyone knows that Covenant College is excluded from reality. Let me first pose two questions about evangelism: 1)I) Is everyone here a Christian? (Is your roommate.roommate ... . . do you care?) An honest-to-God freedomfreedom 2) Do Christians count? (Are they worth sharing your faith with?) At most Colleges (and other places where youth congregate) and perhaps even at Covenant, Leaving those questions behind for a moment, I would like to risk a gross At most Colleges (and other Revolution, Freedom, Conformity and ConservatioP are quite generalization. There are two kinds of people at Covenant. People who were words such as Rebellion, Revolution, Freedom, Conformity and Conservation are quite timely and are given a degree of serious considerationconsideration.. These words and the behavior reared soaking up the Word of God, but who havenhaven't t shown much ofol that timely and are they describe center on various reactions or attitudes toward the status quo or the knowledge to non-Christians-and, secondly, people who are new Christians, they describe center developing complexities of industrial society. Because we all live within a certain cul-cul­ full of zeal, with sometimes as much Bible knowledge, but without a full developing tural milieu and because our personalities are at least partially formed by culture concept of what it means to work out a Christian community.

We can learn First of all, the use of such phrases by Covenant students is often made with the at this point from the experience of Paul and the converts at Perga.

Friday afternoon, October 13, an important segment of Chat­ tanooga’stanooga's population celebrated clean skies and the end of a three year period of grace on installation of anti-pollution de­ vices in various factories. There was a notable lack of Covenant students who might have made efforts to celebrate; few if any UTC students made their presence known. Perhaps this was one celebration that the real celebrants got in on. The people who talked anti-pollution for so long were not to be seen Friday, Oct. 13. The individuals who did work to see the goal of clean skies reached by that date were there (at the Read House, at the factories'factories’ demonstrations of their new devices) in good number, and with good reason. The factory managers and company presidents who came into compliance with the Air Pollution control Board’sBoard's regu­ lations did so only at the cost of nearly $15,000,000. The editorofeditor of Bagpipe found it possible to attend the Clean Air Luncheon which was held in honor of these companies. There was no obvious reason it didn'tdidn’t deteriorate into an every­ day convention dinner. Chickamauga Charlie, seated opposite me, spent the greater portion of the dinner cracking old, old Polish jokes with a Chamber of Commerce _member.. Robert Kirk Walker rambled for a time, only to be replaced by another rambler. A multi-projector slide show got things moving by demon­ strating the progress of the Control Board, headed by Dr. Barnes. The factories of Chattanooga have done an incredible job in an effort to clean up the air.
