Minister's Letter 1 The Rev Jan Mathieson on her recent visit to Nepal, hands over a cheque for the community people below. From the picture below it looks just like you have described to us during recent services. 2 FROM THE MANSE……. 125 Greenwood Road Clarkston Glasgow G76 7LL 0141 579 9997 [email protected] Dear Friends, I expect that most of you will have played a game of I Spy.... either as children or with your own children or grandchildren. It is an age-old way of helping to pass the time on a long journey and even, sometimes, brings to our attention things we might not otherwise have noticed. On my recent visit to Nepal, where I had the privilege of representing the Church of Scotland at the General Assembly of the United Mission to Nepal in Kathmandu, I found myself on a very long journey. I had been visiting some remote mountain villages in the far west of the country and had been high in the hills. Now I was in a jeep, being driven down the very narrow mountain roads which often disintegrated into no more than tracks and which were sometimes blocked by rockfalls so the jeep had to drive closer to the edge of the mountain than I would have liked in order to proceed. The journey would take me to Dalghadi in the centre of Nepal from where I was to get a flight back to Kathmandu. But Dalghadi was a nine hour journey away and so I played a variation on the game of I Spy to pass some of the time. My jeep wasn’t the only vehicle on the road. Also making their way up and down the mountain-side were the big trucks and lorries that delivered to the folks in the mountain villages and surrounding areas everything they need, from bottled water and food to fabric for sewing, items for their homes, personal items and much else besides. What I found fascinating about these lorries was not so much how the drivers managed to pull over to the inside to let vehicles like mine pass (I tried not to think about that!) but rather that they all had names across the top of the windscreen or emblazoned on the top or front of the lorry. There were quite a number of Road King and one or two The Road of the King. I was both amused and unsettled to see another lorry coming towards us bearing the message Best of Luck! Interestingly I also spied a number of lorries with the name – or message- Glory of God. Maybe that was particularly appropriate. The drivers of these lorries spend every day surrounded by the glory of God in spectacular landscapes of majestic mountains and 3 wide open skies. Looking up and around, whether playing I Spy or not, you could not help but notice God’s glory in creation. In the city of Kathmandu both the surroundings and the traffic were very different: jeeps and lorries shared the roadways with motorbikes (lots of motorbikes!) and minibuses; bicycles and carts being pulled by oxen or donkeys. Here it was very dusty and the female police-officers directing the traffic all wore face masks to prevent them breathing in the dust. Here vehicles were identified by the colour of their registration plates: red for private vehicles; green for tourist vehicles; white for government vehicles and black for public vehicles. It made spotting a bus or a taxi or the UMN jeeps quite straightforward but I did find the names of the mountain lorries more interesting and amusing. Yet I think there was also something much more significant about these badges of identity. I like to think they were also a declaration of the faith and the values of the drivers. That made me wonder about how willing we are to declare our Christian faith in our communities and in the increasingly secular society of our country. I don’t think that we necessarily want stickers for our vehicles though, mind you, window stickers saying Williamwood Church might not be a bad idea! However, perhaps we should be more ready to say that we are ‘Church folk’ and to speak of our beliefs more often. For us, as Christians, worship has an important place in our lives. In encounter with God and with one another we become the Church and find, guidance, encouragement, strength and motivation to live our lives in God’s way, following Christ our Lord. How often do we speak of what worship means to us – and how often do we invite others to come with us to worship with us so that they might discover its significance in their lives too? Most of all, of course, we reveal our identity as Christians by the kind of people we are. Galatians 5:22 describes our badge of identity in the list of the fruits of the Holy Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. A few verses later we are enjoined to have no self-conceit, no provoking of one another, no envy of one another. That is quite a list! Striving to live out these qualities in our lives and in our life together as the Church is part of what identifies us as Christians: as people who have responded to the invitation and challenge of Jesus – follow me. I wonder if it may not be these qualities seen in a community of faith, more than anything else, that first attracts others to find out more about the Church and about Christian life and faith. So, as we begin a new session of Church life here at Williamwood, here’s another challenge. Could you identify which of these qualities you find most difficult to display and make a decision to work at it until it becomes easier? In this and in other ways we renew our commitment to witness to the Christian gospel by who we are as well as by what we do. 4 As we return to regular Sunday worship after the summer break we declare anew that God is at the heart of all living as, together, we discover again the glory of God who is with us wherever we travel and through whatever circumstances we must make our journey. I look forward to seeing you back in Church – and why don’t you invite others back again or to come with you for the first time? For those unable to come to services, even temporarily, we’ll be pleased to supply CD recordings of our services so you can join in our worship at home or in hospital – just ask you elder. I hope you have enjoyed this glorious summer-time and that in it your livin’ has been easy, as the song says. As we move into the season of autumn and harvest may you know the richness of God’s grace as together we travel The Road of the King, our Lord Jesus Christ who leads us into the world and into the life of God. May God bless you all Jan (Parish Minister) LEARN about…… The Church of Scotland has a series of booklets in the Learn series which deal with a variety of aspects of faith and belief; practice within our Church and issues that are important in our Church today. All these volumes are available to order (see the Church of Scotland website). Here we continue to dip into two of them and consider some of the questions they raise for us. Exploring Faith Think of a time when you were shaken by doubt and you didn’t know what you believed any more. What might have brought on this experience? What emotions did you feel at the time? What did the experience teach you about yourself and God? Read Psalm 56 ( trust in God under persecution) Read Psalm 69 (prayer for deliverance from persecution) Read Psalm 71 ( prayer for life-long protection and help) 5 Eldership Discipline is a key marker of the Church of Scotland and features in the declaration and affirmation of the elder at ordination What do you know of the role of the elder in maintaining Church discipline in earlier times? How is that continued in the role of the elder now and in what ways does it contrast with the role of the elder now? The call to holy conduct has been an important aspect of Church life from its very beginning. Reflect on your own understanding of what holy living is in twenty-first century Scotland. OBERAMERGAU 2020: AN UPDATE In the Spring edition of Inspire you would read about a proposed visit to Oberammergau in 2020 to see the Passion Play which is performed there, by inhabitants of the village, every ten years. A number of people have expressed an interest in the visit and now some further provisional plans have been made. Most importantly the dates for the visit are 9-16th September 2020. The holiday is to the Austrian Tyrol and Oberammergau and we would stay in the small Austrian town of Arzl in the Arzlerhof Hotel which has a swimming pool, spa area and garden bar. We also spend one night in Oberammergau itself which is just under two hours away. Of course, a ticket to the play is included in the trip. A visit to Innsbruck and some other places are also included. The holiday is organised by McCabe Pilgimages, a firm based in London with over thirty years experience in this sort of travel.

  • The Spirituality of Andrew Murray Jr. (1828-1917). a Theological-Critical Assessment
    THE SPIRITUALITY OF ANDREW MURRAY JR. (1828-1917). A THEOLOGICAL-CRITICAL ASSESSMENT HEE-YOUNG LEE THESIS PRESENTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (THEOLOGY) PROMOTER: PROF. DR. R.M. BRITZ DEPARTMENT OF ECCLESIOLOGY FACULTY OF THEOLOGY UNIVERSITY OF THE FREE STATE NOVEMBER 2006 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Hallelujah! Now this study is complete. A lot of time and effort was put into the work before it could be finished. Prayer, kindness, intellectual supervision and all kinds of support from my family, teachers, pastors, and colleagues are an integral part of this thesis. Without any one of them, this thesis could not have been produced. To begin with I want to give many thanks to God who led me to do this work and to finish it on time. Although there were various difficulties during the study, I was able to overcome those difficulties and to proceed with my studies by the grace of God. I confess that this work is nothing but a result of His lavish grace upon an unworthy sinner. I am deeply grateful to my supervisor, Professor Dr. Rudolph M. Britz who has sincerely and patiently promoted me up to now. His kind, intellectual and detailed supervision, which can be summarised as many hours of patient guidance, editorial scrutiny, and caring encouragement from beginning to end, went beyond what was simply required and provided the best form of guidance in my efforts. His precious advice; “Do not study ideologically. Let primary sources tell and let them guide your study!” was to be a valuable motto, especially considering my goal of being a church- historian.

  • Bridgeton Association for Religious and Intellectual Improvement
    Bridgeton Association for Religious and Intellectual Improvement Overview Bridgeton is an area to the east of Glasgow’s city centre. (For more information about this area, see Gordon Adams’s chapter, [Bridgeton & Dalmarnock],Historical ‘ Background‘, on the East Glasgow History website.) According to the evidence given in 1836 to the Commissioners of Religious Instruction by Reverend John Edwards, Minister of the Relief Congregation, Edwards’ church was the only one in the village, and his congregation was comprised chiefly of the poor and the working classes. More specifically, he lists them as being ‘[e]very species of handicraftsman, weavers, cotton spinners, masons, wrights, and shopkeepers’. At that time, the Association was a collective of 10 Sabbath Schools in the area that were supported by voluntary subscription from the villagers. In addition to a library, there was also a charity reading school. The Association’s listing in the 1870 to 1871 Glasgow Post Office directory suggests that their original aims were still being carried out: ‘The principal object of the Assocation is the moral and religious improvement of the population of Bridgeton by the circulation of the Scriptures; the delivery of lectures; the establishment of Sabbath schools; the support of week-day and evening schools; and such other measures as appear best calculated to promote those ends. Institution Buildings, Bridgeton Public School, 96 Main Street, Bridgeton.’ (‘Bridgeton Association for Religious and Intellectual Improvement’, ‘Religious and Moral Societies’, Post Office Glasgow Directory for 1870-1871… (Glasgow: William Mackenzie, 1870), p. 81) Date of Existence 1824-?

  • In Memoriam: Jennifer Macrae
    The Church Service Society Record IN MEMORIAM: JENNIFER MACRAE Church Service Society AGM 2018 Our much loved and valued member, Jennifer Macrae, died on Friday 2nd March at St Columba’s hospice in Edinburgh following a courageous battle with cancer. Many of you knew Jennifer for a long time; some of you from before she was part of the Church Service Society, of which she was treasurer for a number of years until she began to pass the baton to Iain at the beginning of this year. Some will have known Jennifer in “life before ministry,” maybe as a primary school teacher, maybe as a mum to Elaine and Laura, and wife to Stewart. Maybe as a member of the congregation at Jordanhill Parish Church in Glasgow. Maybe as a probationer at Wellington Church with Leith Fisher as her supervisor. As an assistant at Netherlee, or as the Minister at Kelvinside Hillhead. Jennifer was known and loved by lots of people in lots of places, and that was really evident in the huge crowd that packed out the service of thanksgiving for her life on 10th March. I only knew Jennifer for a short time, but had the great good fortune to be her probationer at Haddington St Mary’s. For the first six months of my time there, I learned so much from seeing Jennifer’s ministry in action, and hearing from people in the congregation and parish about the impact that she had on their lives. In Haddington, Jennifer had the happiest and most rewarding phase of her time as a minister.

  • The Lifter Controversy
    The Lifler Controversy 9 The Lifter Controversy. ONE of the most interesting disputes which disturbed any section 0f the Church in Scotland was that known as the " Lifter " controversy, which for some years agitated the Anti-Burgher section of the Secession Church, and which indeed led to another split therein. The Book of Common Order (John Knox's Liturgy) indicates that at the Communion service the minister is to " take the bread " before he offers the Prayer of Thanks- giving and Consecration. This action is not mentioned in the Direclory for Public Worship ; nor can it be said that it is explicit either in Henderson's or in Calderwood's account of the celebration of the Sacrament.' But there can be no doubt that it was widely, if not universally, practised in Scotland ; and in time it was regarded as being of great significance. Boston2 of Ettrick, for example, writes that " nothing is more distinctly mentioned than this " (the act of " taking " the elements) .3 In some places it was the custom of the minister simply to lift the plate with the bread, and the cup with the wine, before offering the consecration prayer ; but in others, he held a portion of the bread in his hands during the whole of the prayer. This was the custom of Dr Webster4 of the Tolbooth Church, Edinburgh, the leader of the Evangelical party in the city in the 18th century. In the funeral sermon preached after his death we find : " Follow him next to the Communion Table holding in his hands the sacramental pledges of the broken Body and shed Blood of the Redeemer,5 and by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, setting them apart from a common to a sacred use."
