News from Around the Diocese July 2015
Diocesan Newsletter Argyll and The Isles Scottish Charity SC005375 July 2015 Number 70: News from around the Diocese July Ordination to the Diaconate 2015 Inside this issue: News and 1 - 5 Events from around the Diocese News from 6 the Province Ecumenical 7 - 8 and Other Church News Contacts 8 On Saturday 27 th June 2015 the Rt Rev Kevin Pearson, Bishop of Argyll and The Isles, ordained Rosemary Bungard and Elaine Garman as deacons in the St John’s Cathedral, Oban. The newly ordained deacons will serve in the charges on the Isle of Skye (Rosemary) and Cowal and Bute (Elaine). After Provost Nicki McNelly welcomed the congregation to the cathedral, the bishop preached and celebrated the eucharist for the ordinations. Led into the service by St John’s choir and servers, visiting clergy came from the diocese, elsewhere in Scotland and from other churches, and the congregation of Oban worshippers, members from the deacons’ charges and family and friends filled the cathedral. Rosemary and Elaine were presented to the bishop for ordination by friends who had taken a significant role in their respective journeys to this new ministry. The new deacons both trained for the ministry in the Scottish Episcopal Institute, the Scottish Episcopal Church’s theological college. The training, carried out over several years, was a mix of distance learning, residential periods and placements in various churches. The Institute trains clergy and lay readers for ministry in the Scottish Episcopal Church. The Principal of the Scottish Episcopal Institute, the Rev Anne Tomlinson, was present in Oban and welcomed Rosemary and Elaine as the newest members of the body of deacons in the church.

Reformed Theology Edited by Paul T
Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-02722-0 - The Cambridge Companion to Reformed Theology Edited by Paul T. Nimmo and David A. S. Fergusson Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Companion to REFORMED THEOLOGY This Companion offers an introduction to Reformed theology, one of the most historically important, ecumenically active, and currently generative traditions of doctrinal inquiry, by way of refl ecting on its origins, its development, and its signifi cance. Part I , Theological Topics, indicates the distinct array of doctrinal concerns which gives coherence over time to the identity of this tradition in all its diver- sity. Part II , Theological Figures, explores the life and work of a small number of theologians who not only have worked within this tradi- tion but also have constructively shaped and inspired it in vital ways. The fi nal part , Theological Contexts, considers the ways in which the resultant Reformed sensibilities in theology have had a marked impact both on theological and ecclesiastical landscapes in different places and on the wider societal landscapes of history. The result is a fascinating and compelling guide to this dynamic and vibrant theo- logical tradition. Paul T. Nimmo holds the Chair in Systematic Theology at the University of Aberdeen. He received a Templeton Award for Theological Promise for his book Being in Action in 2009, and is an editor of the International Journal of Systematic Theology . He has been a Fellow of the Center for Barth Studies since 2009, and has served on the AAR Reformed Theology and History Group Steering Committee and as Treasurer of the Society of the Study of Theology.

In Christian Wisdom: Desiring God
Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-87545-5 - Christian Wisdom: Desiring God and Learning in Love David F. Ford Frontmatter More information Christian Wisdom What is Christian wisdom for living in the twenty-first century? Where is it to be found? How can it be learnt? In the midst of diverse religions and worldviews and the urgencies and complexities of contemporary life, David Ford explores a Christian way of uniting love of wisdom with wisdom in love. Core elements of his discussion include the ‘discernment of cries’, the love and worship of God for God’s sake, a wisdom interpretation of scripture, and the education of desire in wise faith. The book includes case studies that deal with inter-faith wisdom among Jews, Christians and Muslims, universities as places of wisdom as well as of knowledge and know-how, and the challenge of learning disabilities. Throughout, there is an attempt to do justice simultaneously to the premodern, modern and postmodern in grappling with scripture, tradition and the cries of the world today. DAVID F. FORD is Regius Professor of Divinity at the University of Cambridge and a fellow of Selwyn College, Cambridge. He is author of Self and Salvation: Being Transformed (1999) and co-editor with Ben Quash and Janet Martin Soskice of Fields of Faith: Theology and Religious Studies for the Twenty-First Century (2005). © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-87545-5 - Christian Wisdom: Desiring God and Learning in Love David F.
