Thesignificance JUNE 2013 YEARS INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR PASTORS The significance of a comma AN ANALYSIS OF LUKE 23:43 “…Finally, be strong in the Lord…put on the full armor of God….” Ephesians 6:10 How do Paul’s first century words and descriptions of the Roman armor of his era apply to modern living and the challenging situations we face daily today? Join a group of scholars, educators, clergy, and administrators as they examine and explain the various pieces of armor Paul lists in Ephesians 6:10-18. Explore with them historically accurate armor and weapons like those used by soldiers common in New Testament times. Roman armor was timely; the principles derived from Paul’s illustrations are timeless. Six of the thirty-minute discussions focus on armor Paul mentions, and the seventh session looks at other parts of Roman military gear mentioned or alluded to by Christ and other Bible personalities. In a bonus eighth segment the five panelists share some of their personal “Aha!” experiences as a result of making the DVD set. These DVDs are ideal for a wide range of settings from individual and small group use to classroom and home school applications.

For over thirty years, the three federal agencies that administer and enforce ERISA—the Internal Revenue Service, the Depart- ment of Labor, and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Cor- poration—have interpreted the church plan exemp- tion to include pension plans maintained by otherwise qualifying organizations that are associated with or controlled by a church, whether or not a church itself established the plan. The question presented is whether the church plan exemption applies so long as a pension plan is main- tained by an otherwise qualifying church-affiliated or- ganization, or whether the exemption applies only if, in addition, a church initially established the plan.

  • Local MP Worships at Tottenham
    Local MP worships at Tottenham n 23 June, Tottenham Church held a special recognition service in which they paid tribute to members of the Ochurch and the community. Among the dignitaries present were representatives from the local fire and police services and a number of community leaders. David Lammy, local MP, paid tribute to the church and charged everyone to continue the good work being done. He commented on the warmth of the church and recognised its value as a good place for young people to learn right from wrong. He mentioned five things necessary to build any successful family or church: education, employment, parenting, aspiration and community. He presented awards and posed for photos with those who received them. In his sermon, Pastor Perry encouraged the church to say ‘thank you’ to all the unseen heroes that are a part of our lives, but also pointed out that, although we may not always be thanked here on Earth, there is a reward for us in Heaven. All of this, combined with parading Pathfinders and good music, made the day a great success. COMMUNICATION TEAM 2 editorial 3 Fancy being published? ‘Murray, Murray, Murray . .’.

  • Bansemer: Intelligence Reform: a Question of Balance
    Brig Gen Kenneth Newton Walker Kenneth Walker enlisted at Denver, Colorado, on 15 December 1917. He took flying training at Mather Field, California, getting his commission and wings in November 1918. After a tour in the Philippines, he returned to Langley Field, Virginia, in February 1925 with a subsequent assignment in December 1928 to attend the Air Corps Tactical School. Retained on the faculty as a bombardment in- structor, Walker became the epitome of the strategic thinkers at the school and coined the revolutionary airpower “creed of the bomber”: “A well-planned, well-organized and well-flown air force attack will constitute an offensive that cannot be stopped.” Following attendance at the Command and General Staff School at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, in 1933 and promotion to major, he served for three years at Hamilton Field, California, and another three years at Luke Field, Ford Island, and Wheeler Field, Hawaii. Walker returned to the United States in January 1941 as assistant chief of the Plans Division for the chief of the Air Corps in Washington, DC. He was promoted to lieutenant colonel in July 1941 and colonel in March 1942. During this time, when he worked in the Operations Division of the War Department General Staff, he coauthored the air-campaign strategy known as Air War Plans Division—Plan 1, the plan for organizing, equipping, deploying, and employing the Army Air Forces to defeat Germany and Japan should the United States become embroiled in war. The authors completed this monu- mental undertaking in less than one month, just before Japan attacked Pearl Harbor—and the United States was, in fact, at war.

It investigates how their everyday encounters with diaspora media produce patterns of consumption and interpretation that locates identity, resistance and citizenship as discourses performed with and in media. Through interviews, participant observation and storytelling, the study argues that Filipino Americans’ active engagement with karaoke, the Filipino Channel, a transnational media platform and community newspapers activates becoming more Filipino in the diaspora, long distance activism and a performance of diasporic citizenship informed by cosmopolitanism. These media performances are not mere happenstances but are conscious acts informed by a logic of diasporic performativity that locates active engagement with media as an expression of human agency. iii Dedication To my loving parents, Anselmo and Natividad, for all the sacrifice, wisdom and stories that nourished me as a child and as a student of life iv Acknowledgments I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr.
