Preaching and Sermons Robert H. Ellison In the opening chapter of The Oxford Handbook of the British Sermon 1689-1901, William Gibson estimates that as many as ‘25 million unique sermon performances’ took place throughout the British empire between the end of the Glorious Revolution and the death of Queen Victoria.1 While only a fraction of these sermons were ultimately published, the corpus of available texts is massive as well: extrapolating from the data in John Gordon Spaulding’s Pulpit Publications (1996), Gibson estimates that some ‘80,000 individual…sermons’ were published during this period of time.2 Numbers like this are a mixed blessing for scholars. On the one hand, the sheer size of the canon suggests a virtually endless store of topics to pursue, and advances in digitization have made more texts readily available than ever before.

  • The Meaning of Symbols in Our Worship of God at Midway Hills Christian Church
    The Symbols of Worship 11001 Midway Road Dallas, TX 75229 214-352-4841 Church office Website: www.midwayhills.org The Meaning of Symbols in Our Worship of God at Midway Hills Christian Church Since the beginning of time, humankind has sought ways to express the spiritual significance of the universe. Art, religion, and music are some of our greatest efforts at these expressions of the eternal, unearthly, and unspoken meaning of life. These all find a powerful expression of unearthly truths when used in combination in the Christian Faith. Art, by means of architecture and its allied arts (mosaic, stained glass, etc.) determines the initial impact that the house of worship has on people in the community, especially on every person who enters the door of the church. It reflects the theology of the church members and echoes the liturgy of every worship service. Every church adopts its own symbolic represen- tations of the eternal values that it proclaims through beauty, proportion, color, and the many symbols throughout its house of worship. The vision of Midway Hills Christian Church is to create in worship a strong sense of the holy. However, we cannot engineer God’s presence. But we can design the spoken word, music, prayers, and powerful religious symbols that invite the divine grace of God to impact our hearts, minds, and souls. Though this booklet endeavors to make us more aware of the unique art forms adopted and utilized by Midway Hills Christian Church, in reality, all art must essentially be interpreted by each individual person viewing it.

Warner and Ida C. Brown Ann Arbor 1963 Composition and Lithoprinted by BRAUN -BRUM FIELD, Inc. Ann Arbor, Michigan Oil.. Ill* H INTRODUCTION The Michigan Historical Collections are a special library of The University of Michigan, con- taining the archives of the University and papers of individuals and organizations throughout Michi- gan. In the beginning there were two different projects. One, begun by Professor Lewis G. Vander Velde in 1934, was a program of collecting manuscript and printed materials relating to Michigan history, primarily for the use of graduate students in his seminar. The other program concerned the collecting and preservation of records of the University. To accomplish this purpose, President Alexander G. Ruthven appointed The Committee on University Archives, of which Professor Vander Velde was the secretary. Firmly convinced that a comprehen- sive collection of manuscripts dealing with the history of the University and the State would be use- ful for students and scholars, he began a vigorous campaign of letter writing and personal visits. Housed for a time in a room in the Clements Library, in 1938, needing more space, the papers were moved into the newly opened Rackham Building. In the same year the Regents established the Michigan Historical Collections and appointed Professor Vander Velde the Director.

LOUIS, MISSOURI Copyright © 1964 by The College of the Bible (Lexington Theological Seminary) Printed as a private edition by The Bethany Press, St. Louis, Missouri MANUFACTURED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ACKNOWLEDGMENTS THOSE WHO HAVE HELPED IN VARIOUS ways with this history are too numerous to call by name. From among the many, I single out a few whose contribution was so great and so basic that I must give them special attention. First among these is my wife, DeLoris Ray Stevenson. Since the fall of 1958, when we received the assignment from a com• mittee composed of Riley B. Montgomery, Myron T. Hopper and Wilbur H. Cramblet, she has been almost a full-time re• search assistant. She has systematically read all the minutes of trustees and faculty, all the Bulletins, Quarterlies, and Cata• logues of the Seminary, and scouted all references in the Apos• tolic Times, the Apostolic Guide, the Christian Standard, and The Christian-Evangelist magazines. In addition she has tran• scribed numerous tape-recorded interviews and conducted several interviews of her own. All of this material she made available to me on approximately 12,000 index cards, plus many hundreds of typewritten and handwritten pages. To the volume of read• ing which I myself have done she has been a constantly help• ful guide. She has also prepared the trustee and faculty lists in the Appendix. Without such help the present monumental task would have been impossible to me in the midst of my regular duties.
