  • Calendar of Roman Events
    Introduction Steve Worboys and I began this calendar in 1980 or 1981 when we discovered that the exact dates of many events survive from Roman antiquity, the most famous being the ides of March murder of Caesar. Flipping through a few books on Roman history revealed a handful of dates, and we believed that to fill every day of the year would certainly be impossible. From 1981 until 1989 I kept the calendar, adding dates as I ran across them. In 1989 I typed the list into the computer and we began again to plunder books and journals for dates, this time recording sources. Since then I have worked and reworked the Calendar, revising old entries and adding many, many more. The Roman Calendar The calendar was reformed twice, once by Caesar in 46 BC and later by Augustus in 8 BC. Each of these reforms is described in A. K. Michels’ book The Calendar of the Roman Republic. In an ordinary pre-Julian year, the number of days in each month was as follows: 29 January 31 May 29 September 28 February 29 June 31 October 31 March 31 Quintilis (July) 29 November 29 April 29 Sextilis (August) 29 December. The Romans did not number the days of the months consecutively. They reckoned backwards from three fixed points: The kalends, the nones, and the ides. The kalends is the first day of the month. For months with 31 days the nones fall on the 7th and the ides the 15th. For other months the nones fall on the 5th and the ides on the 13th.

  • The Gospel of Mark Series
    Confirmation and Crisis Mark 1:9-12 Mark gospel is swift moving and short. Scenes are like those of a movie. Historical evidence shows that Mark’s gospel was his recollection of what Peter had taught. He took time to record Peter’s teaching and wrote it down as a response to those Christians who had made a request for copies of his writings. If the gospel of Mark is truly Petrine in origin, then we know that it was this same Peter who confessed Jesus as the Christ…the Messiah…the Son of the Living God! It was this same Peter who left everything to follow Jesus. Mark’s gospel in this first chapter makes the Lordship of Jesus evident. CONFIRMATION John’s Preaching John the Baptist revealed himself and preached repentance after spending most of his life in the wilderness. John said that his role was simple…he was the voice of one crying in the wilderness “make straight the way of the Lord.” John said this of Jesus…”One is coming after me whose sandals I am not fit to stoop down and loosen” he said One is coming after me who is greater than I because he existed beforeme! HOW? When Elizabeth was 6 months pregnant and Mary came to visit and was with child, John leapt in his mother’s womb. John was confirming the identity and preexistence of Jesus! John’s Baptism John began baptizing in the Jordan River. Many were coming to him and confessing their sins. John’s baptism was with water.

  • Pentecostal Music in the Public Square: the Christian Songs and Music of Juan Luis Guerra
    Te Asbury Journal 72/1: 60-77 © 2017 Asbury Teological Seminary DOI: 10.7252/Journal.01.2017S.05 Kelly J. Godoy de Danielson and Robert Danielson Pentecostal Music in the Public Square: The Christian Songs and Music of Juan Luis Guerra Abstract This article explores the issue of contextualization of music in Latin America, particularly through the lens of Pentecostal singer-songwriter Juan Luis Guerra and his story of healing and conversion. Instead of leaving the pop music scene that had made him famous, he chose instead to stay in pop music and introduce Pentecostal Christian songs into his secular albums and concerts. This is a continuation of a long history of creative contextualization by Pentecostal musicians in sharp contrast to mainline Protestants who still primarily rely on translations of English hymns and music in a world where music is an integral part of the culture. Keywords: music, Pentecostalism, Juan Luis Guerra, contextualization, Latin America Kelly J. Godoy de Danielson is a M.A. in Biblical Studies student at Asbury Theological Seminary. She is a native of El Salvador, where she grew up and worked as an English-as-a-Second-Language teacher in the public schools. Her father worked in radio, and so she developed an interest in Latin American popular music and its role in Hispanic culture. She continues to be interested in how language intersects with theology, both in biblical languages and in modern languages in today’s context. Robert Danielson is an affliate professor at Asbury Theological Seminary and is the Scholarly Communications Librarian for the Seminary.

  • Descendants of Paramund
    Descendants of Paramund Generation 1 1. PARAMUND was born in 370 AD in Westphalia, Germany. He died in 430 AD in Rhine River Valley, Germany. He married ARGOTTA. She was born in 376 AD in France. She died in 432 AD in Rhine River Valley, Germany. Notes for Paramund: Paramund was born about 370 AM in Westphalia, Germany. He died about 430 AD at Rhine River Valley, Germany. Paramund is the 25th great grandfather of Louis, husband of Eleanor of Aquitaine (1123-1204), the 14th great grandmother of Edward Southworth, the husband of Alice Carpenter, my 7th great grandmother. What is the significance of following this line? First of all, he is a ling through which descendants flow through the Westmoreland family into which our daughter, Tiffany Lenn Sharpe Westmoreland married when she married Steve O. Westmoreland. Tiffany's mother- in-law, Betty Katherine Covington Westmoreland, generously provided for me most of this genealogical information, and my appreciation of her is great for that. There are some interesting people in that line. Here are the interesting people in that line. This descendants’ line from Paramund of Germany contains 59 generations coming down to our contemporary family, down to our Westmoreland grandchildren. This line comes through our son-in-law’s connections. Notable names most people may recognize include Charles “The Hammer” Martel (686-741), Mayor of the Palace, ruling the Franks, and best remembered winning the Battle of Tours in 732, a battle that halted the Islamic expansion in Europe at that time. William the Conqueror is best known for leading the Normans from France across the English Channel to conquer England and to have himself crowned King of England in 1066.
