  • The Continuing Ministry of the Apostle in the Church's Mission
    THE CONTINUING MINISTRY OF THE APOSTLE IN THE CHURCH’S MISSION A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of The School of Theology Fuller Theological Seminary In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Ministry by Stephen B. Addison October, 1995 A Basis for the Continuing Ministry of The Apostle in the Church’s Mission Stephen B. Addison Doctor of Ministry 1996 School of Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary The purpose of this paper is to establish a biblical, theological and historical foundation for the recovery and contemporary functioning of apostolic ministry in the church’s mission. The main thesis is that the Lord of the church continues to gift individuals for the apostolic ministry of church planting and strengthening. Apostolic ministry is grounded in the fact that the God of Scripture is a sending God who graciously reaches out to a fallen world. Jesus is both the supreme revelation of the God who sends and the perfect example of one who is sent as an apostle. The church is an apostolic people sent into the world. Jesus appointed the Twelve with unique authority as witnesses to the resurrection. Paul shared in that unique authority but also demonstrated that the ministry of apostle continues in a functional sense. The spiritual gift of apostle is given to individuals to equip the whole church in its apostolic calling. Apostles are called by God, but their calling is to be recognized by the body of Christ. The ministry of an apostle is trans-local and involves both church planting and strengthening existing churches.

  • The Christian and Missionary Alliance: an Annotated Bibliography of Textual Sources
    H. D. (Sandy) Ayer was born in New Westminster, British Columbia, in 1952 and grew up in the semi-wilderness of Kitimat, B.C., where he acquired his love of nature. Following his graduation from library school in 1984, he and his wife Diane moved to Regina, Saskatchewan, where Sandy began work as director of library services at Canadian Bible College/Canadian Theological Seminary. His interest in Alliance bibliography stems from his roles as institutional archivist and administrator of the library’s special collection in Allianceana and his love of collecting things. The 6' 8' author has the distinction of being perhaps the world’s tallest theological librarian. He and Diane have two children, Adam, 15, and Hannah, 12. Sandy reads to relax and birds for excitement. If he were ever to write another book, it would be about his experiences as a birder. The Christian and Missionary Alliance: An Annotated Bibliography of Textual Sources H. D. (Sandy) Ayer 7 Dedication Dedicated to John Sawin, Christian and Missionary Alliance pastor, missionary to Vietnam, archivist, historian, and bibliographer. John’s passion for early Allianceana led him to collect, organize, and catalogue, with the help of his late wife Woneta, the thousands of books, periodicals, pamphlets, tracts, and other documents that now form the basis of the special collections and archives at both the C&MA headquarters in Colorado Springs and Canadian Bible College/Canadian Theological Seminary in Regina, Sask.
