  • OF US EVANGELISTS in JESUS' NAME Lessons
    The Rt. Rev. Jeffery Rowthorn May 6, 2012 The Fifth Sunday of Easter Bishop in Europe, retired 11:15 a.m. Christ & Holy Trinity Episcopal Church, Westport, CT ALL OF US EVANGELISTS IN JESUS’ NAME Lessons: Acts 8:26-40; 1 John 4:7-21; John 15:1-8 Text: “Philip began to speak and, starting with this scripture he proclaimed to him the good news about Jesus ….[Then] both of them went down into the water …. and Philip baptized him.” (Acts 8: 35, 38a) ____________________________________________________________________________________ When it comes to evangelism, many of us can identify with Jonah, God’s most reluctant evangelist. Commanded by God to go to Nineveh, he goes instead to Joppa where he finds a ship that can take him to the other end of the Mediterranean. He goes west when he should be going east, and that’s not because he has a very poor sense of geography! No, it’s because the ship is a welcome escape-hatch for this most reluctant evangelist. There could hardly be a greater contrast to Jonah than Philip whom we heard about in our first reading this morning. Philip has been preaching the Gospel in Samaria. Then, in response to God’s command, he goes south towards Gaza. On the way he encounters a senior minister of the Queen of Ethiopia who is now returning home from Jerusalem. And in that encounter Philip shows himself, in three crucial respects, to be not a reluctant but a willing evangelist for Jesus. First of all, he is responsive to the Holy Spirit: “Then the Spirit said to Philip, ‘Go over to that chariot and join it’ So Philip ran up to it and heard the Ethiopian reading the prophet Isaiah.” (Acts 8:29-30a) Secondly, he is responsive to the man’s questions and concerns: “ ‘How can I understand what I am reading unless someone guides me?’… .

  • Theologian, Musician, Author and Educator
    Theologian, Musician, Author and Educator The gift collections of Dr. Jon Michael Spencer A Catalogue of Books, Microfilm, Journals and Vertical Files Donated to the L. Douglas Wilder Library Virginia Union University Compiled by Suzanne K. Stevenson, Special Collections Librarian Michelle A. Taylor, Technical Services Librarian Library Bibliography Series ©Spring 2002 1 PREFACE Since 1998, Dr. Jon Michael Spencer has donated more than 1,100 books from his personal research library as well as selected journals, microfilm of historic papers and research documentation to the L. Douglas Wilder Library at Virginia Union University. The subject areas reflect his specialties in the history and theology of African-American sacred and secular music, African history and slave culture, and African-American history and sociology. The collection includes a significant number of hymnals from various denominations. The former University of Richmond music and American studies professor is now a professor of religious studies at the University of South Carolina. He earned a music degree from Hampton University and completed graduate work in music composition as well as theology at Washington University and Duke Divinity School. Spencer donated this extensive collection to VUU for several reasons. Until the summer 2000, he was a resident of Richmond and VUU was the city’s African American university. As well, VUU has a School of Theology and Spencer has published extensively in the area of religion. Finally, his architect father, John H. Spencer, participated in the design of the Wilder library. It is in the elder Spencer’s name that Dr. Spencer has donated his collections. The books are housed in the library’s closed collections.

  • 04.18.21 3Easter PRINT COPY
    The gospel for the third Sunday of Easter is always one in which the risen Christ shares food with the disciples, meals that are the Easter template for the meal we share each Sunday. In today’s gospel, Jesus both shares the disciples’ food and shows them the1 meaning of his suffering, death, and resurrection through the scriptures, the two main elements of our Sunday worship. Welcome to worship at Welcome! Bethlehem Lutheran Church. We hope that your worship in our community strengthens your faith and brings you peace and joy. Bethlehem has adopted an affirmation of welcome to persons of all sexual orientations and gender identities and is recognized as Reconciling in Christ (reconcilingworks.org). We welcome everyone regardless of age, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, physical or mental challenges, financial resources, or family status, and we invite everyone to participate fully in worship and all that is ours in Christ. Candles are a visible sign of our prayers. Feel free to light a candle during the worship time or before the service. All candles may be extinguished after worship is concluded, signifying that our loving God has heard our prayers. Children are always welcome! We love having children participate in worship and they are encouraged to sing and read along. This becomes a way that faith is passed on to the next generation.
