I C A L S L ·"1 I "w A R ' ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS On the most important level, the personal level, I want to thank my wife Debbie for her tireless encouragement to me while completing my Doctor of Ministry degree. Not given temperamentally to nagging, she never once complained about the time it took. Quite the opposite, she has always been my biggest fan and most ardent supporter. Thank you, also, to my son Jonathan and daughter Carol Ann. You have given your dad space to pursue my educational and spiritual growth through your undemanding attitudes. Both of you are joys and a delight far exceeding any advanced degree. On the academic level, I run the product-for the good that is-of my lifelong teachers. I happily declare indebtedness to my earliest teachers like Greg Laurie and Chuck Smith of the Calvary Chapel movement. They taught me to love the Bible and to connect with people who were reaching out for God. John Wimber and the Vineyard were, also, a huge influence on my early life in terms of developing as a leader, learning to follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and to seek first the Kingdom of God. Later, Richard Foster, Dallas Willard, Eugene Peterson, and Elizabeth O'Connor taught me that there was an indispensable and beautiful, inner journey in the way of Jesus. They showed me that my ability to lead, to follow the Spirit, and connect in helpful and healing ways with others was directly tied to what was happening spiritually in me. iv Recently, I have benefited from the work of British missionary theologian Leslie Newbigin, the authors associated with the Gospel in our Culture Network, and another British theologian, N. T. (Tom) Wright. Lastly, no one has opened my eyes on as many topics as my professors for this course of study. Leonard Sweet's guided reading and discussions yielded a vast panorama of the postmodern landscape. Larry Shelton was a rock-solid theological guide,_ while stretching me to think with creativity about the Creator and Covenant-making God.

En als we ons er middenin bevinden, vinden we het allesbehal- ve verkwikkend en zijn we misschien vol met scepsis, afkeer en angst … waarom verloopt een opwekking soms zo rommelig? De ironie van opwek- king is: terwijl we er soms zo hunkerend naar verlangen, veranderen we licht in tegenstanders op het moment dat deze zich aandient. De vijandig- heid richt zich niet op het idee van opwekking, waar zo vurig voor gebeden is, maar op de manier waarop deze gebeden worden beantwoord en die een totaal onverwachte vorm aannemen’ (John White: 1988). 16 | focus John Wimber Dit een-na-laatste artikel over sleutelfiguren in de kerkge- zuidelijke staten in Amerika.

TM 2 INTRODUCTION John Wimber, the late founder of the Vineyard Movement, popularized a phrase that has rocked the church world for almost a half-century. “Faith is spelled R-I-S-K.” When it came to the Christian life, John’s forte was to live at the intersection of the profound and the practical. He wasn’t content to just read about Jesus doing miracles, casting out demons, and healing the sick. He believed that Jesus had come to do something more – to invite us to do the work of the Kingdom alongside Him.

    The Robert E. Webber Institute for Worship Studies Bibliography on Worship Studies Edited by Mark A. Torgerson, Ph.D. December 2019 The Master and Doctor of Worship Studies programs are based significantly on the eight volumes of The Complete Library of Christian Worship. Numerous articles and bibliographies appear in these volumes. Because they form a basis of knowledge for our program, they will not be cited but once in the reference materials below. The following bibliography covers additional resources (by no means exhaustive), some of which may be required reading for courses in the Master and Doctor of Worship Studies programs. In light of the fact that Christian worship is always embodied within the cultural context of a community, the resources mentioned in the following bibliography will refer to cultural analyses as well as theological studies. Many titles could easily be categorized under several “headings,” so it would be wise to explore multiple areas when building a list of possible resources to examine. Recent titles added to the bibliography are located just after the table of contents. The titles mentioned are also integrated into the bibliography under the appropriate headings.

    “Vineyard is committed to the theology and practice of the kingdom of God, rooted in the vision of the Hebrew prophets and fulfilled in the life and ministry of Jesus of Nazareth.

  • John Wimber, US, Pastor May 11. John Wimber
    John Wimber, US, Pastor May 11. John Wimber. Prior to his conversion, John was part of a Los Angeles musical group called the Paramours, who later became the Righteous Brothers. But his life then was anything but righteous. He described himself as a beer-guzzler, a drug-abuser, and a chain smoker. After his conversion in a Quaker church, John became best known for his leadership in the Vineyard churches, churches with both evangelical and charismatic roots. Between his conversion and his tenure at the Vineyard, John led multiple Bible studies and taught at a seminary. In 1977, John planted the Calvary Chapel of Yorba Linda. On this date in 1980, the Holy Spirit fell on Calvary Chapel. In 1982, Calvary Chapel was renamed Anaheim Vineyard, and it became the flagship church of the Vineyard movement, a movement that spread first across the US, and then across the globe. Here’s his story. Christ calls us to die, so we can live. On his knees, John Wimber scrubbed the oil residue from the inside of another barrel. It had only been a few months since he was John Wimber—the accomplished musician, known for touring the Las Vegas nightclub circuit in various show bands, his successful arrangements, and for his role in the creation of the The Righteous Brothers. Now, he was John Wimber, the man who worked at a manufacturing plant and cleaned oil from the inside of used barrels. One day, an old friend of John’s from the music business heard that he was working at this manufacturing plant and decided to pay him a visit.

  • Leftward to Scofield: the Eclipse of the Kingdom in Post-Conservative Evangelical Theology
    JETS 47/3 (September 2004) 423–40 LEFTWARD TO SCOFIELD: THE ECLIPSE OF THE KINGDOM IN POST-CONSERVATIVE EVANGELICAL THEOLOGY russell d. moore* The protagonist of Walker Percy’s novelThe Moviegoer would salve his depression by reading the liberal and conservative magazines in his neigh- borhood New Orleans library. The ideological conflicts in the pages were, to him, a “sign of life” in an otherwise lonely and impersonal cosmos.1 For some, the ongoing skirmishes between traditionalists and reformists over evangel- ical boundaries might seem to be a sign of life in a movement questing for an identity after Billy Graham and Carl F. H. Henry. For both sides of the divide, however, the issues raised by “post-conservative” proposals represent a challenge to the uneasy consensus of the postwar movement. For reform- ists, the post-conservative proposals are true to the heritage of evangelical theology as a movement initiated for the reformation of American fundamen- talism. And yet, recent developments reveal that the evangelical left may be pushing evangelical theology away from the theological consensus around the centrality of the Kingdom of God that the founders of evangelicalism sought to establish and saw developed into a full-blown consensus by the end of the century. And, in so doing, post-conservative proposals represent an ironic re- gression to the doctrinal reductionism of twentieth-century fundamentalism. i. post-conservative proposals and the development of evangelical theology Like evangelicalism itself, the “post-conservative” or “reformist” strands within the movement are difficult to define with precision. This is because reformist evangelicalism is less a “party” than a constellation of proposals seeking to reform various aspects of traditional evangelical theology.
