  • The Well-Trained Theologian
    THE WELL-TRAINED THEOLOGIAN essential texts for retrieving classical Christian theology part 1, patristic and medieval Matthew Barrett Credo 2020 Over the last several decades, evangelicalism’s lack of roots has become conspicuous. Many years ago, I experienced this firsthand as a university student and eventually as a seminary student. Books from the past were segregated to classes in church history, while classes on hermeneutics and biblical exegesis carried on as if no one had exegeted scripture prior to the Enlightenment. Sometimes systematics suffered from the same literary amnesia. When I first entered the PhD system, eager to continue my theological quest, I was given a long list of books to read just like every other student. Looking back, I now see what I could not see at the time: out of eight pages of bibliography, you could count on one hand the books that predated the modern era. I have taught at Christian colleges and seminaries on both sides of the Atlantic for a decade now and I can say, in all honesty, not much has changed. As students begin courses and prepare for seminars, as pastors are trained for the pulpit, they are not required to engage the wisdom of the ancient past firsthand or what many have labelled classical Christianity. Such chronological snobbery, as C. S. Lewis called it, is pervasive. The consequences of such a lopsided diet are now starting to unveil themselves. Recent controversy over the Trinity, for example, has manifested our ignorance of doctrines like eternal generation, a doctrine not only basic to biblical interpretation and Christian orthodoxy for almost two centuries, but a doctrine fundamental to the church’s Christian identity.

The focus of our educational systems on popular culture, political correctness, and the cult of self-esteem has had two consequences for everyday speech. First, young people prefer to remain silent rather than risk an opinion. Secondly, when they do talk, it is in an outpouring, in the belief that one person's language is as good as any other's. Bon mots, aphorisms, insightful quotations, nuggets of wisdom, or even ordinary apt remarks form only a tiny part of their conversation. American speech, like English speech, used to sparkle. The dialogues invented by Henry James are scintillating, alert to implications, never redundant or blunt. Their stylized air is exaggerated, if at all, only in the cause of art.

  • Address by Dr Peter Wilkinson, President of Catholics for Renewal, at the Launch of the Getting Back on Mission: Reforming Our Church Together
    Address by Dr Peter Wilkinson, President of Catholics for Renewal, at the launch of the Getting Back on Mission: Reforming Our Church Together Welcome and Thanks Welcome everyone and thank you for your presence. This is a special occasion for Catholics for Renewal and Garratt Publishing, and I am delighted that you are here to share it. Thank Francis Sullivan To Francis Sullivan, I extend my most sincere thanks for launching our book. Francis is an outstanding Australian Catholic layman who, for five long years, undertook with commitment and integrity the task of liaising between the Australian bishops and the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. In the process he provided important impetus for the reform of our Church. We are honoured, Francis, that you accepted our invitation to launch Getting Back on Mission: Reforming our Church Together and, on behalf of Catholics for Renewal, I thank you for your kind and carefully chosen words about our book. They reaffirm our hope that it will take forward the movement for renewal. Renewal in Australia Renewal of the Church in Australia never was and never will be an easy task. Even Vatican II’s vision for renewal was slow to get off the ground here, stumbled, and slowly petered out. Early renewal groups that called for reform were usually labelled dissenters and troublemakers, and they struggled to make an impact. The fortress was strong and almost impregnable. And yet, renewal groups continued to emerge, sometimes like spot fires, breaking out spontaneously, and Catholics for Renewal was one of these.

  • Book Reviews
    BOOK REVIEWS JOHANNES-KOMMENTARE AUS DER GRIECHISCHEN KIRCHE. Edited by Joseph Reuss. Texte und Untersuchungen 89. Berlin: Akademie-Verlag, 1966. From time to time our knowledge of patristic literature is augmented by the discovery of previously unpublished texts, as, e.g., the recent publication of Didymus the Blind's Commentary on Zechariah. There is a less dramatic side to the editing of patristic texts and that is the slow, tedious work of examining the catenae to discover fragments of works of the Fathers. In the case of the exegetical works these fragments frequently provide the only clues we have to the exegetical writings of some Fathers. In the 1930's K. Staab published a large collection of fragments from the commentaries on Paul by the Greek Fathers, other scholars have published fragments of individual exegetical works, and several years ago J. Reuss published the fragments of the commentaries on Matthew of the Greek Fathers. In this present volume he complements the edition of fragments on Matthew by the fragments on the Gospel of John. This work, like the work on Matthew, is a superb piece of scholarship and an outstanding example of how fragments should be edited. The volume includes the following authors: Apollinaris of Laodicea, Theodore of Heraclea, Didymus the Blind, Theophilus of Alexandria, Cyril of Alexandria, Ammonius of Alexandria, and Photius of Costantinople. The bulk of the fragments come from Apollinaris, Theodore, Ammonius, and Photius. From Didymus we have only twenty-one, from Theophilus only one, and twenty-one from Cyril. Cyril is included, though we have almost the full text of his Commentary on John (ed.

ON THE CHRISTOLOGY OF APOLLINARIS OF LAODICEA. WILLIAM P. ANDERSON, DAYTON, OH INTRODUCTION It is with great pleasure that I share in this tribute to the Rev. Theodore Koehler, S.M. It was Father Koehler who enabled this liberal Protestant to understand and appreciate the richness of Mary, the mother of Jesus, in the Christian tradition. Coming, as I did, from a rather austere Reformed tradition, I had little or no sense for this tradition so meaningful to so many· Roman Catholics. While I may yet have theological reservations, a new openness was made .possible for me by means of my listening to the insights of Father Koehler and by my par:ticipation in a n.umber of mariological seminars sponsored by .the International Marian Research Institute. My personal and theological lives have been enhanced by these and many other experien­ ces which have b{)en my privilege while being a professor at the University of Day­ ton.
