  • A Study of Ordination in the Baptist Context
    CHANGED, SET APART, AND EQUAL: A STUDY OF ORDINATION IN THE BAPTIST CONTEXT Dissertation Submitted to The College of Arts and Sciences of the UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology By Jonathan Anthony Malone Dayton, Ohio May, 2011 CHANGED, SET APART, AND EQUAL: A STUDY OF ORDINATION IN THE BAPTIST CONTEXT APPROVED BY: _____________________________ Dennis M. Doyle, Ph.D. Committee Chair _____________________________ Brad J. Kallenberg, Ph.D. Committee Member _____________________________ William L. Portier, Ph.D. Committee Member _____________________________ Anthony B. Smith, Ph.D. Committee Member _____________________________ William V. Trollinger, Ph.D. Committee Member ii ABSTRACT CHANGED, SET APART, AND EQUAL: A STUDY OF ORDINATION IN THE BAPTIST CONTEXT Name: Malone, Jonathan Anthony University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. Dennis Doyle The American Baptist denomination is often characterized as an ecclesiological grass-roots organization. The theology of such a denomination is practiced organically by the people and is seldom articulated by the academy. Thus one cannot find a well articulated theological understanding of what ordination means for the individual and the community in the Baptist context. A synthesis of Geertz’s thick description, Lindbeck’s approach to doctrine, and McClendon’s understandings of speech-acts and conviction will offer a methodology through which one can articulate a theology of ordination. In doing so, we will find that the “call” and a relationship with a congregation are essential for ordination to occur. Such a theology will suggest that one is changed through ordination, and this change is relational in nature. The Catholic concept of Sacramental Consciousness offers a way to articulate the community’s awareness of the pastor’s relational change while at the same time maintaining the egalitarian nature of a Baptist community.

Grenz (d.2005), along with his imago Dei theology, revisioned social trinitarianism, narrative theology, incorporation of theosis, and theology of triune participation. This dissertation also utilizes the hermeneutical philosophy of Paul Ricoeur, in conjunction with Grenz’s trinitarian ecclesiology, to propose a missional and hermeneutical ecclesiology.

  • Can Evangelical Theology Move Beyond Foundationalism? Some Insights from the Theological Method of Stanley J
    www.crucible.org.au 1:1 (May 2008) Can Evangelical Theology Move Beyond Foundationalism? Some Insights from the Theological Method of Stanley J. Grenz Brian Harris Baptist Theological College of Western Australia Abstract: Stanley Grenz has proposed a method for theological construction that moves beyond foundationalism and which is appropriate for a postmodern context. In this article the building blocks of Grenz’s method are explored before an examination of the application of his method in his text on homosexuality, Welcoming but Not Affirming, is undertaken. Though Grenz proposes that culture should serve as a source for theological construction, in this text he is only able to utilize cultural insights on a highly selective basis, which raises questions as to whether his method is genuinely postfoundational. The article argues that this highlights the difficulty evangelicals find when they attempt to embrace a postfoundational method. In their 2001 publication, Stanley Grenz and John Franke proclaim their intention of devising a theological method that moves Beyond Foundationalism, with the hope that such a method will, as the subtitle of their text proclaims, assist in Shaping Theology in a Postmodern Context.1 They are especially concerned that their method will be acceptable to the evangelical community, noting, with slight exaggeration, that while theologians in mainline theological circles have been in need of a reminder that theology involves more than simply reflecting on method… Evangelical theologians have produced numerous works concerned with the content and exposition of theology. Yet they have given little attention to methodological concerns.2 In his work on theological method Grenz has succeeded in devising a model that has occasioned much comment amongst evangelicals.
