    Faithful Stewards of the Mysteries of God

    Faithful Stewards of the Mysteries of God Report of the General Secretary Jerome King Del Pino Meeting of the Board of Directors General Board of Higher Education and Ministry October 13, 2005 Nashville, Tennessee hen at its gathering in 2004 General Conference brought into being the Connectional Table, it undertook a restructuring of Wour denomination’s corporate life that harbors far-reaching implications for how United Methodists will interpret and live out their mission in the twenty-first century.And to the extent that the church’s mission and ministry find expression through the work of the general agencies, the deliberations and actions of the Connectional Table will have a direct impact on the mission of the General Board of Higher Education and Ministry.This is unavoidable.After all, as the Book of Discipline makes clear, the Connectional Table is the venue where “ministry and money are brought to the same table to coordinate the mission, ministries, and resources of The United Methodist Church.”1 The Connectional Table represents a powerful opportunity for revital- izing the mission and ministry of The United Methodist Church in the new century. However, ironically, it also harbors the real danger of con- tributing to the further fracturing of the United Methodist connection. I submit that whether the Connectional Table will be blessing or bane depends vitally on the willingness of the church’s leaders to subject this new confluence of “connection,”“mission,”“money,”and “ministry” to deep-running theological scrutiny.The fact is, United Methodism’s unfortu- 2 nate penchant for a distorted pragmatism that says,“If it works, let’s do it,” is a bane to our church.

    “THE STEWARD MINISTRY: IN PRINCIPLE AND IN PRACTICE” FFOOUURRTTHH QQUUAARRTTEERR PPRROOGGRRAAMM OOFF SSTTUUDDYY ~~22000088~~ WRITTEN BY: Clifford L. Harris, President CONNECTIONAL LAY COUNCIL OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LAY MINISTRY CHRISTIAN METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH DR. VICTOR TAYLOR, GENERAL SECRETARY BISHOP THOMAS LANIER HOYT, JR., CHAIRMAN INTRODUCTION The Fourth and final 2008 Connectional Lay Council Quarterly Program of Study is based primarily on facts outlined and recorded in Chapter 35 of the 2006 CME Church Book of Discipline. The *process and duties recorded in this chapter, pertaining to the Steward Ministry, will be presented as “principles” and my comments relative to the approach or method of addressing the principles will be presented as “practices”. One should, in reading and digesting this document, have the Book of Discipline on hand. As you begin this lesson, please consider very sincerely Section 509, of Chapter 35, under the heading of “Spiritual Expectations”. It reads as follows: God calls God’s people to various ministries. In the local congregation such ministries are fulfilled in positions of leadership. Each is vital to the church’s effort to fulfill its mission as the body of Christ in every place. Accordingly, persons placed in positions of leadership should evidence the highest level of commitment to Christ and His/Her Church by participation in public worship, Sunday Church School, opportunities for prayer and Bible study, and such spiritual disciplines as tithing of self and resources. Taking into consideration the individual and collective relationships of Stewards to the Pastor and the on-going spiritual and financial health of the church, I find that section 509 is tremendously important.

  • The Wesleyan Enlightenment

    The Wesleyan Enlightenment

    The Wesleyan Enlightenment: Closing the gap between heart religion and reason in Eighteenth Century England by Timothy Wayne Holgerson B.M.E., Oral Roberts University, 1984 M.M.E., Wichita State University, 1986 M.A., Asbury Theological Seminary, 1999 M.A., Kansas State University, 2011 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2017 Abstract John Wesley (1703-1791) was an Anglican priest who became the leader of Wesleyan Methodism, a renewal movement within the Church of England that began in the late 1730s. Although Wesley was not isolated from his enlightened age, historians of the Enlightenment and theologians of John Wesley have only recently begun to consider Wesley in the historical context of the Enlightenment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the complex relationship between a man, John Wesley, and an intellectual movement, the Enlightenment. As a comparative history, this study will analyze the juxtaposition of two historiographies, Wesley studies and Enlightenment studies. Surprisingly, Wesley scholars did not study John Wesley as an important theologian until the mid-1960s. Moreover, because social historians in the 1970s began to explore the unique ways people experienced the Enlightenment in different local, regional and national contexts, the plausibility of an English Enlightenment emerged for the first time in the early 1980s. As a result, in the late 1980s, scholars began to integrate the study of John Wesley and the Enlightenment. In other words, historians and theologians began to consider Wesley as a serious thinker in the context of an English Enlightenment that was not hostile to Christianity.

    Sporting Legends: Seve Ballesteros

    SPORTING LEGENDS: SEVE BALLESTEROS SPORT: GOLF COMPETITIVE ERA: 1974 - 2008 Severiano "Seve" Ballesteros (born 9 April 1957 in Pedreña, Spain) is a Spanish golfer who was one of the sport's leading figures in the 1980s and 1990s. Ballesteros turned professional in March 1974 at the age of 16. In 1976, he burst onto the international scene with a second-place finish in The Open Championship; he went on to win the European Tour Order of Merit (money title) that year, and repeated his Order of Merit win the following two years. He would go on to win the Order of Merit six times, a record at that time (since surpassed by Colin Montgomerie). Ballesteros went on to win five major championships: The Masters: 1980, 1983 His 1980 win was the first at Augusta by a European player. The Open Championship: 1979, 1984, 1988. He was also a great at match play; he won the World Match Play Championship five times, and was a mainstay of the European Ryder Cup team for much of the 1980s and 1990s. He scored 20 points out of 37 matches against the United States; his partnership with José María Olazábal was one of the most successful in the history of the competition, with 11 wins and two halved matches out of 15 pairs matches. While Ballesteros was a member of European sides that won the Ryder Cup in 1985, retained the Cup in 1987 and 1989, and regained the Cup in 1995, the pinnacle of his career in the competition came in 1997, when he captained the winning European side at Valderrama Golf Club in Sotogrande, Spain.

    WESLEYAN WISDOM for MISSION-SHAPED DISCIPLESHIP by Phil Meadows Journal of Missional Practice

    WESLEYAN WISDOM FOR MISSION-SHAPED DISCIPLESHIP By Phil Meadows Journal of Missional Practice WESLEYAN WISDOM FOR MISSION-SHAPED DISCIPLESHIP In recent years, some scholars have shifted their focus from missional ecclesiology to mission spirituality, by making authentic discipleship the starting point of missional thinking. From this perspective, it is not churches but people that participate in the mission of God. The world is not evangelised by structures, but by mission-shaped disciples who love God and neighbour. Discipleship is the essential bridge between missiology and ecclesiology. The modest aim of this article is to survey some resources of Wesleyan theology and spirituality for points of contact with this evolving conversation about discipleship, and offer some brief reflections on missional practice for the contemporary church. It will be argued that mission spirituality means abiding deeply with God and living missionally in the world. Mission-shaped disciples are those who intentionally pursue this mission spirituality as a way of life; by seeking growth in God’s love through spiritual discipline and small group accountability, and sharing that love with others in the ordinary flow of everyday life. Missional churches are defined as communities of mission-shaped disciples; and missional leadership is that which invests in the formation of discipleship, for the sake of church vitality and missional outreach. https://journalofmissionalpractice.com/wesleyan-wisdom-for-mission-shaped-discip... Page 1 of 12 WESLEYAN WISDOM FOR MISSION-SHAPED DISCIPLESHIP By Phil Meadows Journal of Missional Practice There have been a number of unfolding and overlapping shifts in Western missiological thinking over recent years. First, the dominant understanding of mission as sending people overseas to pre-Christian cultures has been overshadowed by the need for missionary activity in our emerging post-Christian context.
