  • How Can We Know the Way?
    How Can We Know the Way? Sermon for the Fifth Sunday of Easter The Ninth Sunday of Our Pandemic Crisis May 10, 2020 Bethany Congregational Church, United Church of Christ Foxborough, Massachusetts Rev. Bruce A. Greer, Interim Pastor Text: John 14:5 “Thomas said to [Jesus]: ‘Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?’” I. When Thomas asked Jesus “How can we know the way?” he wasn’t asking for directions. No Google Map or GPS device could answer his question. We ask questions like this when we are disoriented, when our resources are uncertain and the outcome is unknown. A question like this cries out for guidance and assurance, not directions from Point A to Point B. Put yourself in the context of the question. Jesus gathered his disciples for what would be their last supper.1 His death was imminent, so he said to his disciples: “Do not let your hearts be trou- bled. Believe in God, believe also in me.”2 He assured them of God’s presence and guidance on their way forward. He assumed that the disciples already knew this. Throughout John’s Gospel, we find the disciples consistently confused by Jesus, repeatedly miss- ing the point. What did Jesus mean? Where was he going? What will happen to him and to their movement? It was an anxious time filled with tension and concern. You can feel it in Thomas’s question: “Lord we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?”3 We’ve all been in situations like this, wondering about the way forward.

  • THE CTU 50TH ANNIVERSARY Bible Land Tours with Fr. Don Senior, CP
    THE CTU 50TH ANNIVERSARY Bible Land Tours with Fr. Don Senior, CP From the very beginning of its 50th year life-span, Catholic Theological Union has had a deep connection with the lands of the Bible through its renowned Bible department. Each year CTU students and faculty have spent a semester abroad studying in Jerusalem and exploring the adjacent biblical sites in Jordan, Egypt, Greece, and Turkey. Beginning in 1988 and continuing every year since, Rev. Donald Senior, CP, professor of New Testament and President Emeritus, has conducted biblical tours designed for board members and friends of CTU. Nearly 800 people have participated in these special tours that include deluxe travel, five-star hotels, opportunities for worship at sacred sites, and expert biblical commentary on archaeological sites that form the historical foundations of our Christian faith. To celebrate its 50th anniversary year (2018–2019) as a premier school of theology, CTU will sponsor three special tours of the biblical lands: The Birth of Christianity: The Holyland: The Land of Egypt Greece and Turkey Israel and Jordan OCTOBER 5 – 20, 2018 FEBRUARY 8 – 18, 2019 JUNE 15 – 28, 2019 fr. donald senior, cp professor of new testament and president emeritus My work has focused on the study and interpretation of the Gospels, the Pauline literature, 1 Peter, and New Testament archaeology.

  • The Argument from Miracles: a Cumulative Case for the Resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth
    The Argument from Miracles: A Cumulative Case for the Resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth Introduction It is a curiosity of the history of ideas that the argument from miracles is today better known as the object of a famous attack than as a piece of reasoning in its own right. It was not always so. From Paul’s defense before Agrippa to the polemics of the orthodox against the deists at the heart of the Enlightenment, the argument from miracles was central to the discussion of the reasonableness of Christian belief, often supplemented by other considerations but rarely omitted by any responsible writer. But in the contemporary literature on the philosophy of religion it is not at all uncommon to find entire works that mention the positive argument from miracles only in passing or ignore it altogether. Part of the explanation for this dramatic change in emphasis is a shift that has taken place in the conception of philosophy and, in consequence, in the conception of the project of natural theology. What makes an argument distinctively philosophical under the new rubric is that it is substantially a priori, relying at most on facts that are common knowledge. This is not to say that such arguments must be crude. The level of technical sophistication required to work through some contemporary versions of the cosmological and teleological arguments is daunting. But their factual premises are not numerous and are often commonplaces that an educated nonspecialist can readily grasp – that something exists, that the universe had a beginning in time, that life as we know it could flourish only in an environment very much like our own, that some things that are not human artifacts have an appearance of having been designed.
