Kids today have no shortage of heroes. From Hollywood celebrities to music artists and sports figures, it would seem that there are plenty of heroes to go around. The heroes being offered by popular culture are teaching children that physical perfection, financial success, and fame are the most important goals in life. The morals and values presented by these heroes are often in direct opposition to the standards parents want to pass on to their children. So, while there is no shortage of heroes, there is a dreadful shortage of heroes worth emulating. The Torchlighters video series offers children real heroes that they can depend on. These heroes have lived truly great lives marked by moral depth, strength of character, and an unswerving commitment to Christ. By sharing in their struggles and small steps of obe- dience, we are all challenged to live lives of faith. It is our sincere desire that as children get to know these “torchlighters,” they will be challenged to follow in the footsteps of the greatest torchlighter of them all, Jesus Christ.

Yet, in a hidden corner of London, a dif- ferent story unfolds. In the down-and-out “East End” of London, some folks are hungry, desperate, and largely forgotten by the rest of the city. Children as young as six are already addicted to alcohol, while others scour trash cans for food. The only thriving businesses seem to be the bars where young and old come to drown their troubles or watch men fight The pub owners in London's East End prepare to kick William for a meager wage. Booth and his followers out of their territory once and for all. In 1865, the young, talented preacher William Booth happens upon this forgotten territory, where vice runs rampant. Booth stumbles along, astonished at the needs he sees and feels. Later that night William anxiously explains to his wife Catherine that he has found his life’s mission. Declaring the hurting souls of East End as “our people,” William and Catherine dedicate their lives to serving those who need God the most. But reaching the people of the East End with the Gospel will take more than determination and hard work! The suspicions of the people are a big challenge, but it’s the opposition of the pub owners that brings the most conflict. This is their territory, and they will stop at nothing to defend it from these “intruders” who march in with Bibles and talk of faith. Watch as William and Catherine follow the Lord on a remarkable journey, as one by one the folks of the East End respond in faith and join in the work of bringing God’s redemption to their needy friends. The Booth’s legacy continues to this day through the organization they founded, The Salvation Army.

Follow these easy steps to get the most out of this episode of The Torchlighters! 1. PREVIEW The William Booth Story before showing it to your students. This will help you to rec- ognize the major themes and teachable moments that occur throughout the video, while equipping you to answer student questions. Our theme for this series is No Compromise! Four sub-themes will be explored: • Called! God calls each of us to a unique task in His Kingdom. He gives us all we need to complete those things he asks us to do. • Courage! It takes courage to leave behind our own comfort and go where God calls us. • Commitment! When the going gets tough, God still uses us for good. • Continue! Jesus asks for a lifetime dedicated to serving Him. 2. REVIEW the Supplementary Information. Become more informed on this true story by reading through “Key People in The William Booth Story,” “The Nineteenth-Century World of William Booth,” and “Timeline of the Booths and The Salvation Army,” beginning on page 14. On your DVD you will also find an informative 30-minute documentary, which is abridged from a more extensive documentary entitled Our People: The Story of William and Catherine Booth, available through www.visionvideo.com. 3. SELECT and PREPARE Teaching Material. Our four lesson plans lead children on a faith journey with the Booths, while incorporating scriptural lessons from the life of the Apostle Peter. Feel free to mix and match the material to best suit your group and the time available. All material is reproducible and designed to help children apply the teaching themes.

FOCUS: God created each of us in a unique and special way, and He calls us to important work in His Kingdom! NO COMPROMISE BIBLE VERSE: “For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10 PREPARATION: If possible, prepare your teaching space with a tent theme. You could set up a larger tent in your classroom or outside, display a small pup tent, or simply stretch fabric over your story area, to create a tent feel. Use your tent space for all Bible discussion times throughout this four-week teaching session. BLANKET NAME GAME: Materials needed: Two chairs and a blanket are needed for this activity. Playing the Game: 1. Set up two chairs about 6 feet apart. Select two helpers and have them stand on the chairs and hold a blanket between them, as a wall dividing the space. 2. Divide your class into two teams, placing the teams on opposite sides of the blanket wall. Instruct them to go into a “huddle” a few feet away from the wall so the other team cannot see them. 3. Each team sends one person up to the blanket wall. This must be done silently so the other team does not hear who is sent. 4. Once the two representatives are at the wall, the blanket holders count to three and drop the blanket. The two people facing each other must now race to say each other’s names. The first one to correctly say the other’s name wins a point for their team. 5. Continue until each team member has had a turn. ASK: Why is it sometimes hard to remember names, especially when asked to do it quickly? Have you ever been surprised by someone you don’t know that well remembering your name? How did that make you feel? SAY: Jesus knows everything there is to know about each one of us and He always knows our name! Introduce Ephesians 2:10 as the theme verse for this week. SAY: Not only does He know us, but He made us and He has plans for each one of us to serve Him! TENT TALK BIBLE TIME: Invite your students into the tent for Bible Time. SAY: We are beginning a study on the life of William Booth, a faith hero who lived in England in the 1800s. William Booth often preached in a tent, so for this series, we will hold our discussion times in the tent! William Booth was called by God for a special purpose.

  • Toronto Has No History!’
    ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY By Victoria Jane Freeman A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto ©Copyright by Victoria Jane Freeman 2010 ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY Doctor of Philosophy 2010 Victoria Jane Freeman Graduate Department of History University of Toronto The Indigenous past is largely absent from settler representations of the history of the city of Toronto, Canada. Nineteenth and twentieth century historical chroniclers often downplayed the historic presence of the Mississaugas and their Indigenous predecessors by drawing on doctrines of terra nullius , ignoring the significance of the Toronto Purchase, and changing the city’s foundational story from the establishment of York in 1793 to the incorporation of the City of Toronto in 1834. These chroniclers usually assumed that “real Indians” and urban life were inimical. Often their representations implied that local Indigenous peoples had no significant history and thus the region had little or no history before the arrival of Europeans. Alternatively, narratives of ethical settler indigenization positioned the Indigenous past as the uncivilized starting point in a monological European theory of historical development. i i iii In many civic discourses, the city stood in for the nation as a symbol of its future, and national history stood in for the region’s local history. The national replaced ‘the Indigenous’ in an ideological process that peaked between the 1880s and the 1930s.

  • Salvation Army Why Don't the Salvos Have Baptism?
    Salvation Army Quotes copied & pasted from: http://www.salvationarmy.org.au/about-us_65047/faqs/questions- about-our-faith.html?s=2026750641#baptism Why don’t the Salvos have baptism? To the vast majority of people, baptism is regarded as a distinctly Christian ritual. So it may seem odd to some and puzzling to others as to why it is not observed within The Salvation Army. The Army has several distinctives that make it different to other denominations—its uniform, terminology and symbols to name a few. In respect to spirituality, the Army is fundamentally simple and uncluttered compared to some other churches. In its early days, baptism was part of Salvation Army practice, but a decision was made that saw the discontinuation of any form of ritual that could be interpreted as a substitute for daily faith and dependence upon God. Salvationists see such rituals as outward signs of an inward experience, and it is the inward experience that is of greatest importance to God. The decision to discontinue baptism resulted from the question: Is baptism essential to a person becoming ‘saved’ or for one to continue in a relationship with God? Based upon the Bible, the answer was clearly ‘no’, baptism is not regarded as essential to salvation or continued faith. While some might accuse the Army of being disobedient to what the Bible teaches regarding baptism, it was and continues to be a way whereby people witness to their new found faith and conversion. New believers within The Salvation Army testify publicly in worship and tell their story of conversion.

  • William Booth, Catherine Mumford and the Methodist Reformers
    1 WILLIAM BOOTH, CATHERINE MUMFORD AND THE METHODIST REFORMERS By David Malcolm Bennett 2 WILLIAM BOOTH, CATHERINE MUMFORD AND THE METHODIST REFORMERS I The Booths The Methodist reform movement of the 1850s led to many defections from British Wesleyan Methodism in what is sometimes called “The Agitation”.1 Amongst these defectors were William Booth (1829-1912) and Catherine Mumford (Booth – 1829-90), of Salvation Army fame. William Booth had been brought up as a nominal Anglican, but when he was 15 he began to attend the Wesley Methodist Chapel in Nottingham in the north of England. It was through the ministry of this chapel that he was converted not long after. In 1849 he became unemployed, so he moved to London and joined the Wesleyans there. Catherine Mumford was born in Derbyshire not far from where the Booths lived, though the two families were, at that time, unknown to each other. She was brought up a Wesleyan Methodist and for most of her childhood lived in Boston, Lincolnshire. The Mumfords moved to London in 1844, not far from where William Booth was later to live. William and Catherine did not attend the same chapel but were introduced by a Methodist Reformer acquaintance.2 II The Divisions in Methodism It was not long after the death of John Wesley in 1791 that British Methodism began to divide. Because of ministerial dominance, one group broke away as early as 1797 to form the Methodist New Connexion. Another split occurred when Primitive Methodism was founded in 1811. This later became a large body.

Jackson The history of The Salvation Army is incredibly rich. Those who spend time researching and writing it are keenly aware of this truth. Those who choose to read books, articles and thoughtful studies on The Salvation Army’s past come to understand the depth and importance of the subject. The history of this organization maintains a uniqueness that separates this movement from oth- er religious organizations, churches and nonprofits. We are similar in some respects, but our uniqueness is what tells the story that most readers of our past want to know and profit from. Just prior to the release of Maud, Emma, Evangeline: America’s Love Affair with the 3 Booth Women, I spent several hours interviewing Dr. R. Gordon Moyles for a promotional video about the book. I was taken by Moyles’ pas- sion for the subject of his latest work, and his lifelong study of The Salvation Army.
