It was the last general synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, Evangelical Synod, meeting under that name. With a vote of almost four-fifths of the assembled commissioners in favor of the Joining and Receiving, the RPCES became part of the Presbyterian Church in America at 1 p.m. on June 14, 1982. For everyong present, it was amazingly clear that the Spirit of Christ was guiding all the deliberations and decisions. The events during the Tenth General Assembly of the PCA confirmed to us all that God was working to bring together several branches of His church. Psalm 133, sung traditionally at the close of presbytery and synod meetings, has been adumbrated by the experience of those eight glorious days in June. Soli Deo Gloria. May future events prove that it was good for us to come together. By the nature of the case, this current edition of the 160th General Synod Minutes has some different features from previous years. Since synod met for only three days of meetings, the minutes record actions dealing with the JOining and Receiving and a few other matters that needed synod's attention. All other reports presented are printed only as part of the record. The roll call vote on J and R is recorded on pages 8-12 along with the attendance record. The directory of synod is given as of June, 1982, by presbytery, without benefit of index. Also, no directory of committees and agencies is published since no commitees continue to exist. However, an extensive and detailed Index of Synodical Actions of the RPCES, 1965-1982 is included. Finally, as a matter of historical record, the list of succession of synods, moderators, and stated clerks since 1 77 4 has been included. These minutes are being published and distributed later than usual because the editor had taken time to publish Documents of Synod 1965-1982, which is now available from the Committee on Chris­ tian Education and Publications of the PCA, P.O. Box 39, Decatur, GA 30031. Also, the Index of Synodical Actions needed to include the minutes of 1981 and 1982. This also took additional work. These minutes, according to the action of the 153rd General Synod, are to be distributed free to all ministers, "one copy to every church (whether for clerk of session or church library), plus additional copies for each $50

Since ancient times, music and art have plumbed the depths of man's interpretation of his experience with the physical and spirihIal worlds. Even a casual ShIdy of the history of music and art in the West will reveal not only a wide range of styles and motifs, but also the progression of Western thought from premodern to modem to postmodern.

  • Nigel Goodwin Was Born in 1937. He Studied at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London in 1958 and in 1959 He Began His Acting Career
    Nigel Goodwin was born in 1937. He studied at The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London in 1958 and in 1959 he began his acting career. From 1959 to 1964 he worked in theater, film, T.V. and radio. In 1964, he studied Theology at All Nations Christian College in Hertfordshire. In the spring of 1965, he was given a vision for the Arts Centre Group and in 1971, he and his wife opened their home to those in the world of the arts, media and entertainment industries for discussions, Bible study, prayer, encouragement and networking over delicious meals. In the summer of 1967 he began studies at L’Abri, Switzerland with Dr. Francis Schaeffer and Prof. Hans Rookmaaker. In 1982, Genesis Arts Trust was formed in response to the increasing work Nigel found himself involved with internationally and as an organization to support Christians in the arts. He has helped to found arts groups across Europe as well as in the United States, Australia, and South Africa. In 1994, Nigel and his wife moved the base of this work to the Isle of Wight. Their home on the island is used as a retreat for those of influence in the media and arts. Nigel travels internationally, preaching, teaching, lecturing and leading workshops on the media and arts.
