Youth and the Quest for a Passionate Church Somebody Save Me: Youth and the Quest for a Passionate Church Dean, Kenda Creasy I was glad. I was glad when they said to me let us go to the house of the Lord! Or as Eugene Peterson puts it, “when they said Let’s go to the house of God, my heart leaped for joy!” and this morning that is exactly my sentiment as we come together we have been preparing and planning and praying for this event for a long time and it is just a joy for us to welcome you. Welcome to the Passionate Faith Bible Youth and Culture conference here at Seattle Pacific University put on by the Centre for Biblical and Theological Education. Let me extend as well a special welcome to any students, faculty or staff that are here and President Eaton. All of you we extend a warm welcome. So glad that you can join us and we anticipate a moving of God’s spirit as we come together to hear from him this morning. We have a few, just words and then we are going to move right into worship. I want to invite Dr. Les Steele to come and give you a welcome on behalf of Seattle Pacific University. Dr. Steel is our Vice President for Academic Affairs and following him we will move right into worship led by Taylor Neal and the Gospel Ensemble. We are so glad you are here and God is here with us. Thank You Celeste and good morning to all of you and welcome to Seattle Pacific University. That is official now since it was my role on the agenda. This is a great conference. This is one of the first fruits of a larger conference of the centre of Biblical and Theological Education. This is one of the great things that is happening on our campus that grows out of our already interesting academic work around youth and culture and Bible and scripture and theology. And it expands that work. A few years ago we had Chris Smith on campus who kind of opened our eyes to issues of Biblical illiteracy, theological illiteracy. And this is really a centre that grows out of that funded by the generation of the Murdock Foundation and we just look forward to great things both in terms of these types of conferences but also in terms of the resources you will find on the web and amongst our faculty and staff. So welcome on behalf of the university. I trust that it is an educative and wonderful time for you as well as a time as a time of wonderful worship this morning. Thanks for being here. Good morning, my name is Doug Strong, I am the dean of the School of Theology here at SPU and again I welcome you, especially our students, faculty and many guests who are with us today. It is an honor for us to be able to be here and especially for me to be able to introduce to you Kenda Creasy Dean. Kenda and I go way back. We have had the privilege of knowing each other I would say my blessing for getting to know her for a long time. And what we found in these year is that we both have a crazy sense of humor that we seem to have this uncanny way of being Wesleyans way fairs among Presbyterians. And also this similar concern conviction that Seattle Pacific University Transcriptions there seems to be a disconnect between what we have experienced in God and what we hope for of the church and yet what somehow unfortunately doesn’t seem to be experienced in many of the places where we have seen the church inactive. And so what I of course we could talk a lot about Kenda’s credentials but what is most important for me about her is the way in which as she says in her book, she wants to see and for all of us to have the quest for a passionate church. My guess is that is a common quest. It is one that draws us to be here today. It is one that compels us to go into ministry to all the world. And so it is true that Kenda is professor of Youth and Culture at Princeton Theological Seminary that she is probably the leading voice on theology and youth ministry today in this country. More importantly than that is her desire for God to be present with us and to help to shape us into the kinds of people that would make better disciples of Jesus Christ for the sake of the reign of God. It is in that spirit that I am very pleased and excited to welcome to our campus Kendra Creasy Dean. Well thank you, this is a blast to be here and part of the reason it is a blast is because there are so many people from all these different corners of my own world that have somehow converged in Seattle. I understand that is a common experience for people who come to Seattle. They somehow never leave. Anyway, it is great to be here and thanks especially to the marvelous working Celeste who is the absolute most organized person I have ever worked with in my entire life to get this together so thank you. I know we are setting up the theme this morning for what is happening the rest of the day. So pray with me. Gracious God, rid me of myself and help me get out of your way. In Christ’s name we pray. If I were going to ask the first story that comes to mind for most American young people, a story about somebody getting saved. What might you name? Some of you might name Twilight, the way Edward is always rushing in to save Bella and of course the soundtrack leads with the song called hurry up and save me. Somebody might say Heroes. If you watch that show you know that the first season’s theme was Save the Cheerleader, Save the World. Nobody really knows what that means but by the time the third season had rolled around and it had morphed into Save Ourselves, save the World. Some of you might name Gossip Girl or Sex and Money Equals salvation sometimes. And sure enough the music video for the show feature for the show features the Crows song Sometimes Salvation. Some of you might even mention Glee where the theme every single week is how we get saved with a little help from our friends so that we Don’t Stop Believing. But probably most of you would name the mega salvation myth in American culture which has withstood almost 900 comic books, six movies, ten TV series, 18 animated shorts and yes, a Broadway musical: Superman. Now if you have watched Smallville sometime in the last nine years you know that the theme song is anybody know? Somebody Save Me. And I just happen to just look up the season finale is coming up next week. You know what the name of that finale is? Salvation. Smallville of course is about Clark Kent’s growing up Seattle Pacific University Transcriptions years. First as a teenager, more recently as a young adult who is learning about who he is and who he belongs to and what on earth he is doing on this planet. It is a quest that the church calls vocation. And like all adolescence, Clark has to come with terms with changes that he can’t seem to top. He doesn’t quite understand, changes in his body that he can’t seem to stop. Watch this clip from the first season. It is the first time where Clark’s parents have seen save anybody. You might recognized those of you who aren’t regulars will recognize Clark’s fathers one of the Dukes of Hazard. Watch. Ok. Well there is a scene were this happens, ok? Who are we? Who do we belong to and what on earth are we doing on this planet? Now in Christian tradition our call from God and our salvation in Jesus Christ, are inextricably linked. Superheroes have come a long way since the Superman myth was introduced by two Jewish teenagers for their school newspaper in Cleveland, Ohio in the 1930’s. but the Superman myth reminds you that salvation and location go together. Kal-El the name of Clark Kent when he is back on planet Krypton means “voice of God” in Hebrew. But when young people do not hear the connection between vocation and salvation made to the church. Pop culture is very happy to offer them alternative saviors instead. Now to be clear despite all the Jesus imagery in Smallville and other Superman stories; Superman is based on Moses as some of you know, not on the story of Jesus. So we have to be careful here because Superman is not or Jesus is not, superman is not God is a cape or something. To be saved is a phrase that we abuse so much. Margret Brown Taylor says that too much education will make you jumpy just even using it. But you can’t talk about either teenagers or about Christian location without talking about salvation. And as we will see, the church doesn’t give teenagers a story about God’s salvation, they will gladly find a salvation story someplace else. Of course Superman does have a problem right? And that is what Kryptonite.

Wissner Montclair State University No time like the past: Hearing nostalgia in The Twilight Zone Abstract Keywords One of Rod Serling’s favourite topics of exploration in The Twilight Zone (1959–64) Twilight Zone is nostalgia, which pervaded many of the episodes of the series. Although Serling Rod Serling himself often looked back upon the past wishing to regain it, he did, however, under- nostalgia stand that we often see things looking back that were not there and that the past is CBS often idealized. Like Serling, many ageing characters in The Twilight Zone often sentimentality look back or travel to the past to reclaim what they had lost. While this is a perva- stock music sive theme in the plots, in these episodes the music which accompanies the scores depict the reality of the past, showing that it is not as wonderful as the charac- ter imagined. Often, music from these various situations is reused within the same context, allowing for a stock music collection of music of nostalgia from the series. This article discusses the music of nostalgia in The Twilight Zone and the ways in which the music depicts the reality of the harshness of the past. By feeding into their own longing for the reclamation of the past, the writers and composers of these episodes remind us that what we remember is not always what was there.

Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.

It argues that this connection was not integral to the character as he was originally created, but was imposed by later writers over time and mainly for cinematic adaptations. This thesis also tracks the history of how Christians and churches viewed Superman, as the film studios began to exploit marketing opportunities by comparing Superman and Jesus. This thesis uses the methodological framework of intertextuality to ground its treatment of the sources, but does not follow all of the assumptions of intertextual theorists. iii MA Thesis—Robert Revington; McMaster University, Religious Studies ABSTRACT This thesis examines the historical trajectory of how the comic book character of Superman came to be identified as a Christ figure in popular consciousness.

One faction of fans was unhappy with the choice of Jonathan, however, as they would have preferred Lana dying instead. Volume 5 - 1st printing. Alongside E4 broadcasting the new series of the show, Sci-Fi were also broadcasting all the older episodes, which ran all the way up to the end of Season 7. However, the show was not able to afford the special effects to pull the scene off, and so, the sequence was re-written to feature a bus crash. Leslie rated it it was amazing Jun 26, This authorized companion with a stunning page full-color section takes you through Season Four, which achieved the highest ratings of any season! Since then, she has headlined shows like Bitten and the reboot of V. The final version was finished "two-and-a-half [to] three weeks" before production began. It should come as no surprise, then, that Durance was a hit with the viewers and fans and she remains one of the, if not the best incarnation of Lois Lane there ever has been highly contentious though that sentence is.

  • Thinking About Journalism with Superman 132
    Thinking about Journalism with Superman 132 Thinking about Journalism with Superman Matthew C. Ehrlich Professor Department of Journalism University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Urbana, IL [email protected] Superman is an icon of American popular culture—variously described as being “better known than the president of the United States [and] more familiar to school children than Abraham Lincoln,” a “triumphant mixture of marketing and imagination, familiar all around the world and re-created for generation after generation,” an “ideal, a hope and a dream, the fantasy of millions,” and a symbol of “our universal longing for perfection, for wisdom and power used in service of the human race.”1 As such, the character offers “clues to hopes and tensions within the current American consciousness,” including the “tensions between our mythic values and the requirements of a democratic society.”2 This paper uses Superman as a way of thinking about journalism, following the tradition of cultural and critical studies that uses media artifacts as tools “to size up the shape, character, and direction of society itself.”3 Superman’s alter ego Clark Kent is of course a reporter for a daily newspaper (and at times for TV news as well), and many of his closest friends and colleagues are also journalists. However, although many scholars have analyzed the Superman mythology, not so many have systematically analyzed what it might say about the real-world press. The paper draws upon Superman’s multiple incarnations over the years in comics, radio, movies, and television in the context of past research and criticism regarding the popular culture phenomenon.

Free from their parents’ rules, their idyllic summer quickly becomes a test of friendship as each boy learns to appreciate the fact that family - whether it is the one you’re born into or the one you create – is something you can't run away from. ABOUT THE PRODUCTION The Kings of Summer began in the imagination of writer Chris Galletta, who penned his script during his off hours while he was working in the music department of “The Late Show with David Letterman.” After some false starts in screenwriting, Galletta shunned his impulse to write a high-concept tentpole feature and craft something more character-driven and personal.

  • I Had Well Over 1000 Hours of Time in the Air Before I
    “I had well over 1,000 hours of time in the air before I entered combat. Most of that was as an instrument instructor fl ying the SNJ. Instrument fl ying really teaches you the fi ner points of fl ying an airplane. It also makes you focus and for some reason I found that it carried over to gunnery work in the Hellcat as well. Every time I got behind a Japanese airplane I was very focused as my bullets tore into them!” —Lin Lindsay Joining the fi ght I joined VF-19 “Satan’s Kittens” as one of its founding members in August of 1943. We gathered at Los Alamitos, California, and “Fighting Nineteen” was supplied with a paltry sum of airplanes; an SNJ, a JF2 Duck, a Piper Cub, and a single F6F-3 Hellcat. Most of them were not much to write home about as far as fi ghters go except of course, the F6F. To me, the Hellcat was a thing of beauty. It was Grumman made and damn near inde- structible! As a gun platform it was hard hit- ting with six .50 caliber machine guns in the wings, bulletproof glass up front and armor protection for the pilot.

  • Find out What Happens in the Season Finale of SUPERMAN and LOIS
    Find out what happens in the season finale of “SUPERMAN AND LOIS”, now available only on HBO Max The latest episode of the DC Universe series SUPERMAN AND LOIS is now available. All episodes of the first episode can be found only on HBO Max. SUPERMAN AND LOIS lets us enjoy The Man of Steel (Tyler Hoechlin), Clark Kent and the famous journalist, Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch), after they both return to the idyllic town of Smallville in order to raise their teenage children, Jonathan and Jordan, after facing supervillains, chaotic monsters and aliens.It all begins with one of the biggest challenges: raising two children as working parents, while Morgan Edge also appears, with whom we saw the tension build throughout the series. The story is interwoven after Clark shares the story of him on Krypton with his children and one of them discovers that he inherited powers from his Kryptonian DNA.Lois Lane takes a central role in the series and can empathize with the people around her, in her family and as a professional thanks to her moral integrity. Undoubtedly, the couple forms an almost flawless team, providing great mutual support for one another.In addition to Hoechlin (Teen Wolf) and Tulloch (Grimm), SUPERMAN AND LOIS stars Erik Valdez (Graceland), Jordan Elsas (Little Fires Everywhere), Alex Garfin, Inde Navarette (13 Reasons Why), Wole Parks (All American) and Adam Rayner (Mistresses) with Dylan Walsh (Nip/Tuck) and Emmanuelle Chriqui (Entourage).Based on the DC characters created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, SUPERMAN AND LOIS was developed by Greg Berlanti (Arrow, The Flash, Batwoman, Supergirl) and Todd Helbing (The Flash, Black Sails), who is executive producer together with Sarah Schechter (All American, Riverdale) and Geoff Johns (Titans, DC’s Stargirl, Wonder Woman).
