People must not hear the preacher’s ideas. Rather, they must understand the exegeti- cally determined and practically applied revelation of God.” —Dr. Randy Jeaggli “The burden of my heart is to equip pas- tors with the ability to expound every part of the Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, by whole books, chapters, paragraphs, verses, and topics. They should be able to explain types, prophecies, history, doctrine, poetry, and other portions of Scripture. They should be able to produce whole series of sermons on grand themes in Scripture, such as Christ, the Holy Spirit, salvation, redemption, sanctification, and separation.” —Dr. Stewart Custer Expounding Scripture Expository preaching is an important part of the ministerial “Bob Jones University is com- “To preach the Word of training at Bob Jones University. mitted to the task of training God to others is a those who are called to privilege almost Our faculty are dedicted to pro- preach.

McDowell 2011 iii KOKESHI: CONTINUED AND CREATED TRADITIONS (MOTIVATIONS FOR A JAPANESE FOLK ART DOLL) Jennifer E. McDowell, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2011 This study will concentrate on the transformative nature of culturally specific folk art objects, and how they are contextualized within narratives of national tradition and regionalism. Utilizing the Japanese wooden folk art doll kokeshi as a vivid example, I will explore how tradition becomes embodied in objects, and in turn how the image of the kokeshi is actively used to define perceived traditional spaces under the umbrella of cultural nationalism and nostalgia. The establishment of folk art categories like kokeshi reflects the deeper dynamics of Japanese nation building, and the role that the Tōhoku region (the production area for kokeshi) plays in national cohesiveness. Tōhoku and the products within it act as perceived repositories of tradition and self-discovery in what are defined as furusato (hometown) spaces.
