  • BC's Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions

    BC's Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions

    Made In B.C. – Volume II A History of Postsecondary Education in British Columbia B.C.’s Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions Bob Cowin Douglas College April 2009 The little paper that keeps growing I had a great deal of fun in 2007 using some of my professional development time to assemble a short history of public postsecondary education in British Columbia. My colleagues’ interest in the topic was greater than I had anticipated, encouraging me to write a more comprehensive report than I had planned. Interest was such that I found myself leading a small session in the autumn of 2008 for the BC Council of Post Secondary Library Directors, a group that I enjoyed meeting. A few days after the session, the director from Trinity Western University, Ted Goshulak, sent me a couple of books about TWU. I was pleased to receive them because I already suspected that another faith-based institution, Regent College in Vancouver, was perhaps BC’s most remarkable postsecondary success. Would Trinity Western’s story be equally fascinating? The short answer was yes. Now I was hooked. I wanted to know the stories of the other faith-based institutions, how they developed and where they fit in the province’s current postsecondary landscape. In the ensuing months, I poked around as time permitted on websites, searched library databases and catalogues, spoke with people, and circulated drafts for review. A surprisingly rich set of historical information was available. I have drawn heavily on this documentation, summarizing it to focus on organizations rather than on people in leadership roles.

  • Tiberius, the Emperor of Rome. Pontius Pilate, the Governor of Judea

    Tiberius, the Emperor of Rome. Pontius Pilate, the Governor of Judea

    VIPs The Second Sunday of Advent Luke 3:1-7 Tiberius, the Emperor of Rome. Pontius Pilate, the governor of Judea. Herod, the ruler of Galilee. Philip, ruler of Ituraea and Trachonitis. Lysanias, ruler of Abilene. Annas and Caiaphas, high priests of Jerusalem. If we’re honest, it’s hard to care about who was in charge of what in the first century, especially when those names read like extraneous details—a kind of prelude to the rest of the story. To our brothers and sisters of the first century, our indifference would have been nothing short of unfathomable. To them, those men are the story. As emperor, Tiberius is the one whom everyone worships, a sort of demigod of peace and prosperity. Pontius Pilate’s clout and authority stems from his world as the emperor’s envoy in Judea. Herod, Philip, and Lysanias are Pilate’s local emissaries, and therefore they are also held in high esteem. Lastly, Annas and Caiaphas are the ones to whom Jews in the region followed and trusted for matters spiritual and practical. Together, these 7 men are the ones everyone expects to be be inked into the annals of history and carved into the porticos of temples and marketplaces. That John the Baptist is the one we remember most today would have been nothing short of offensive to them. John doesn’t have the blue-blood lineage or socially esteemed position of the others. What he has is a reputation for endless bad hair days and dinners of dried, crusty bugs. On top of that, much of his adulthood has been spent in the barren and lifeless wilderness— a place of low expectations, A place most people avoid, a place where God often seems silent.
