  • SOCIAL HOLINESS Journey, Exposures, Encounters
    SOCIAL HOLINESS Journey, Exposures, Encounters Jonathan S. Raymond Every faith community is faced from time to time with the challenge of rethinking, reformulating, and re-articulating its core beliefs, values, and practices. This is not easy work, but it is essential for any and all faith communities who desire that each generation respond to new, contemporary circumstances, challenges, and opportunities. Wesleyan holiness faith communities face this challenge now with the passing to a next generation an understanding and articulation of a doctrine of holiness. The present day status of holiness is a far departure from our past. We are challenged because so many Christians today pay such little attention and interest to the idea of holiness anymore. Holiness is rarely taught, preached, or pursued. it is viewed by many Christians in a negative light. This may in part be due to its false identification with perfectionism, legalism, judgmental ism, privitism, and introspection. It is seen as optional and only something for a few saints; as restrictive and repressive summarized by a long list of behavioral prohibitions; as individualistic and unattainable for most being a matter of superhuman striving. It is viewed by many as unimportant. Tragically, what is commonly considered important for Christians is “getting saved” (from sin), going to heaven and in the meanwhile only leading a good, decent life. At best for a few, holiness is seen as a possible mountain top experience attained at special spiritual retreats, not a way of life. Most see holiness as socially irrelevant and not necessary to a life of ministry and mission.

  • Aspects of Leadership in the Salvation Army History Salv 0670 / Hist 0670
    Tyndale Seminary Course Syllabus SPRING/SUMMER 2020 ASPECTS OF LEADERSHIP IN THE SALVATION ARMY HISTORY SALV 0670 / HIST 0670 MAY 4 – JULY 24, 2020 ONLINE INSTRUCTOR: MATTHEW SEAMAN, PHD Tel: +61-438-613-548 (Australia) Email: [email protected]; [email protected] Access your course materials at the start of the course, or copy this URL into your browser http://myboothonline.boothuc.ca. I. COURSE DESCRIPTION This course traces the nature and development of leadership in The Salvation Army, exploring how it relates to leadership in general and to the Church in particular, and asking questions about the challenges the Army’s leadership model faces in the contemporary world. It should be clear that this does not purport to be a course inculcating the principles and best practice of leadership in general, although the student may well draw conclusions about these matters from a study of the Salvation Army’s history, with which this course is concerned. Areas reviewed in this course on aspects of leadership in The Salvation Army (a) The evolution of the function and status of Salvation Army officers in the context of the Army and of church as a whole. (b) The leadership of women, as a parallel debate. To what degree were/are women equally officers? 1 Revised: 2 March 2020 (c) The extent to which The Salvation Army is able to integrate authoritarian, consultative and participative modes of leadership. What are the strengths and weaknesses of each? How far is leadership ability the decisive factor and how determining is the structural form within which it is exercised? II.
