More importantly, welcome to the next step in your journey of discipleship and mission. People enroll in seminary for many different reasons, but one reason that seems to resonate with many students is that they were called by God. The call of God is powerful and intimidating at the same time. The God of the Universe has placed a call upon your life. You may be unsure of the exact way in which that call will unfold or you might be confident in the next step on your journey. In each case, you are first called to follow God. Each of us is invited to experience life in the Kingdom of God and to use our gifts to serve the Mission of God. We have the privilege of participating in the great work God is doing in this world. It is in that work that we truly experience life. Your journey through Sioux Falls Seminary is first and foremost a journey of discipleship. You will be challenged to engage in your walk with Christ in new and exciting ways. You will be asked to consider how God might be asking you to share the redemptive message of the Gospel. At times, you will question whether or not seminary is the best option for you. At other times, you will simply revel in the grace and power of God. Please know that Christ is with you at each of those moments. Sioux Falls Seminary is committed to developing servants for their participation in the kingdom mission. Welcome to that journey! 1 We strive to make theological general information Kingdom Calling education .

  • A Reflection on Greek Space/Time Concepts As Design Implications in Minecraft Isaac Lenhart I.T
    Kairotopos: A reflection on Greek space/time concepts as design implications in Minecraft Isaac Lenhart I.T. University of Copenhagen Rued Langgaards Vej 7 DK – 2300 Copenhagen S Denmark +45 72 18 50 00 [email protected] ABSTRACT The game of Minecraft provides an open virtual environment which is somewhere between game and pseudo-game framework (at the current level of development) in which the player is free to explore, investigate and change the world around them. The “virtual environment” of Minecraft naturally involves a description and participation of a spatial and temporal framework in which the player is placed, and presents a unique set of qualities that cross into several categories of Greek notions of the meaning of space and time This paper first describes the historical concepts that the ancient Greeks used for space and time and discusses their links to the concepts of theoretical and technical skills. These concepts are then examined in combination and individually. Finally, this paper describes the mechanics and affordances within the Minecraft environment that are either affected by these spatiotemporal terms or which have impact on the spatiotemporal experiences of the player.

[Type text] INTRODUCTION The concepts of space and time were discussed extensively by the ancient Greeks, who formulated these ideas during their discussions around rhetoric, ethics, metaphysics and physics. Philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Gorgias, Epicurus, as well as the Stoic, Atomist and Pythagorean schools, had their own originating ideas about the qualities and structure of space and time.

  • Happy New School Year
    Happy New School Year Welcome to the 2017-2018 School Year. In the Eastern Catholic Churches (Byzantine Rite) the liturgical year has a formally designated beginning on September 1st, rather than the first Sunday of Advent (Roman Rite). What a blessing it is that we are starting a New School Year at the same time as the Eastern Christians are starting a New Church Year. We read in St. Paul's letter to the Colossians, “Make the best possible use of your time” (Colossians 4:5). The key word in this statement by St. Paul is the word "time." New Testament writers use two Greek words for time: chronos and kairos. Chronos time is chronological time, calendar time, time that moves along moment by moment, day by day, year by year. But kairos time is another kind of time, a special kind of time; time which is crucial; time which determines history. Jesus lived a life of kairos time. He never ignored a single moment or opportunity for doing good, for serving, for healing. He used time to the fullest: teaching, comforting, loving, preaching. Even when He was alone, He spent His time in prayer, communicating with God as to how best use the time that was left in His life. The Lord gave us chronos time, calendar time, that we may turn it into kairos time, salvation time, time filled with opportunities for us to respond to God's gracious invitation to the Kingdom; time for bearing in our lives the fruit of faith, hope and love. The principal meaning of the word kairos in the New Testament is: the right time, the ripe time, the proper time, the opportune time for salvation.

  • Kairos and Stasis Revisited: Heuristics for the Critically Informed Composition Classroom
    Composition Forum 14.2, Fall 2005 Kairos and Stasis Revisited: Heuristics for the Critically Informed Composition Classroom Helen Foster It is not an uncommon scenario for a student assigned an argumentative paper in the composition classroom to appropriate a “hot” topic from the currency of public discourse, one for which they often already have a pre­formed opinion that becomes codified simultaneously with the need to formulate a thesis. With thesis thus pre­determined, research is approached as primarily a process by which to identify and accumulate material to match the pre­ determined position, while any serious consideration of the legitimacy of the opposition is equated with the need to conform to convention and, therefore, with what are often only superficial concessions. In this scenario, there is no genuine dialogic engagement and the activity of argument, thus narrowly conceived, is reduced to a formal contest among what must necessarily be winners and losers. Why, then, are we surprised when students seek to identify with winners and we are faced with grading the “canned” papers we know only too well? There is, however, nothing particularly natural about the above “canned” scenario, although, arguably, the proliferation of radio and television pundits exerts a cultural influence that may predispose students to think of persuasion and argument in combative terms. My point, though, is that what is often a mode and skills based teaching approach in the “canned” scenario is, itself, a fairly reliable predictor of the abysmal products it inspires. This needn’t be the situation, however, for a change in the philosophy and teaching approach of the composition course can change not only final research products, but it can also change students’ experiences of what it means to do research.

    God's Suddenlies - A Kairos Time Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8 A TIME TO... There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: A time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, A time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, A time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, A time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away, A time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, A time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. Time: Dictionary - Chronos Time; a continuous sequence of events that are irreversible from present to future. Time, as we know it. Strongs: #2540 short while, proper time, opportunity. A right time, purposed time, determined time, chosen time, a season, or pre- arranged time. Strongs: #5703 is a continual time into eternity. A forward process. Perpetual. We can miss a Kairos Time. We have to discern it and press in. Sin can keep us from discerning a Kairos Time, wrong decisions or relying on past experiences. If we do not discern a Kairos Time is will just be another moment in Chronos Time (measured by a clock).
