What is the future of ministry in the Middle East? The events of the last few months have raised questions about what it means to live as God’s people in the face of opposition and suffering. It begs of God’s people a response that is shaped by a divine view of these events. We have become so used to the road paved for the gospel by the church being recognised by the state, that these events seem to shake our understanding of God’s purposes. Let’s reread Acts, and see the story of a small group of followers of Jesus who walked out faith in the face of great opposition, and saw amazing evidence of God at work. This issue of St Francis has been delayed due to some transitions for some of our editorial and production group. -

As the King of Uruk, he oppresses his people and burdens his city. To temper his excesses, the gods create Enkidu, Gilgamesh’s equal, who becomes his greatest friend. Together they wander the kingdom as brothers, conquering demons until a cruel twist changes Gilgamesh’s path forever.

Approximately 1870 people attended. The Convention Centre was certainly sufficient for the convention--overcrowding was not a problem. It was a bit diffuse, however, with a very long walk from the Green Room to the panel rooms, and the bid tables, site selection, and cafe somewhat hidden around a corner. I think they planned to have the rooms open at the other end, onto that area, and then discovered that they could not. The Centre was directly connected to our hotel, which turned out to be useful, because there were escalators in the Convention Centre from ground level to the lobby level, while in the hotel, one had to climb a full flight of stairs to get in. -
Mar 30, 2012 Greg Bear BIOGRAPHY I Was Born in San Diego, California
Greg Bear (Bio-Bibliography) (1) Mar 30, 2012 Greg Bear BIOGRAPHY I was born in San Diego, California, on August 20th, 1951, to Wilma M. and Dale F. Bear. My father was in the navy, and by the time I was twelve years old, I had traveled with my parents to Japan, the Philippines and Alaska, as well as touring various parts of the United States. It was in Alaska, at age ten, that I completed my first short story. I had been writing for a year or so already. At age thirteen or fourteen I began submitting stories to the magazines, and at fifteen I sold my first short short to Robert Lowndes' FAMOUS SCIENCE FICTION. (It appeared when I was sixteen.) It took five years to sell my next story, but by the time I was twenty-three, I began selling regularly. In the late 1960s, a group of high school friends, myself, and local fans helped found San Diego Comic-Con. I served on the committee for a number of years. Today, Comic-Con is a totemic multimedia extravaganza drawing more than 120,000 attendees yearly. My first novel, finished when I was nineteen, was completely rewritten and sold to Berkley some thirteen years later; the first novel I sold (HEGIRA, Dell) appeared in 1979. By order of publication, my novels are HEGIRA, PSYCHLONE, BEYOND HEAVEN'S RIVER, STRENGTH OF STONES, THE INFINITY CONCERTO (Berkley, 1984), BLOOD MUSIC (Arbor), EON (Bluejay) (1985), THE FORGE OF GOD (Tor, 1986), THE SERPENT MAGE (Berkley, 1986), ETERNITY (Warner, 1988), QUEEN OF ANGELS (Warner, 1990). -

From Imperium to Imperialism
Copyrighted Material CHAPTer one From Imperium to Imperialism WRITING THE ROMAN EMPIRE The rise and fall of a great empire cannot fail to fascinate us, for we can all see in such a story something of our own times. But of all the empires that have come and gone, none has a more immediate appeal that the Empire of Rome. It pervades our lives today: its legacy is everywhere to be seen. —Barry W. Cunliffe, Rome and Her Empire The endurance of the Roman Empire is one of the success stories of history. That it survived so long is a sign of its prin- cipal achievement, whereby a heterogeneous mixture of races and creeds were induced to settle down together in a more or less peaceful way under the Pax Romana. —J.S. Wacher, The Roman World Definitions of Empire and Imperialism It is generally agreed that the Roman Empire was one of the most suc- cessful and enduring empires in world history.1 Its reputation was suc- cessively foretold, celebrated and mourned in classical antiquity.2 There has been a long afterlife, creating a linear link between Western society today and the Roman state, reflected in religion, law, political structures, philosophy, art, and architecture.3 Perhaps partly in consequence, many An early version of this chapter was delivered as the 2005 Ronald Syme Lecture at Wolf- son College, Oxford, on 20 October 2005. It was substantially developed for delivery as my opening lecture in the Miriam S. Balmuth Lectures in Ancient History and Archaeology series at Tufts University on 18 April 2006 and has been further revised and expanded for publication here.
