Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Goodly Heritage , Cornelis Pronk surveys the history of the Secession of 1834, beginning with the events leading up to this important spiritual movement and subsequently following its long journey through the Netherlands and North America until 1892. He then focuses on a small minority that decided to continue as the original Christian Reformed Church, considering its growth and how it formulated theological positions in relation to several other Reformed denominations. Throughout, special attention is given to the doctrines of covenant, baptism, and the Holy Spirit’s ministry in applying salvation. This work not only explains the concerns of De Cock and other fathers of the Secession. It presses beyond the early years of the reform movement to present a larger picture of the developments of Secession theology and the contributions made by its main representatives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arch B. Taylor Jr. traces his ancestry from colonial times, immigrating from Great Britain and Scotland. He describes his family life through high school and Davidson College in North Carolina. As a student in Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary and newly wed to Margaret Hopper he served as student pastor in Indiana and later in a rural pastorate in Tennessee. With a young son they went to China as missionaries, only to end up in Japan. They devoted themselves to Shikoku Christian College for twenty-eight years, including Arch’s four years as its president. His biographical sketch of Margaret pays tribute to her as life partner and describes her outstanding qualities as a feminist activist. After Margaret’s death in 1984 Arch retired to Louisville, Kentucky, where Social Security and a Presbyterian pension support what he calls “retread.” Because the Creator God is love, and God sent Jesus as the savior of the world, Arch has devoted these years to nonviolence and justice and efforts for a better life for people on earth. Arch’s retread career was greatly blessed by his second wife Wanda Rowe Myers, who died in 2006. Arch has labored stoutly against the militarism of the United States. He opposed President Reagan’s Contra war and joined Witness for Peace in Nicaragua. As missionary in residence at Presbyterian College in Clinton, South Carolina he condemned Bush’s first Iraq attack as a war crime. He joined the 2001 Presbyterian Peace Fellowship delegation in Israel / Palestine. He criticizes U.S. complicity in Israel’s violations of international law and the human rights of Palestinians. Arch advocates the abolition of nuclear weapons and the death penalty, while supporting fairness for LGBTQ people and women’s freedom of reproductive rights. Now past ninety, Arch has reduced his activism but continues to write and advocate.

Download or read book Susquehanna University 1858 2000 written by Donald D. Housley and published by Susquehanna University Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Susquehanna University's history from 1858 to 2000 has occurred in three stages, each expressing a different mission. The school was founded in 1858 as the Missionary Institute of the Evangelical Lutheran Church to fulfill the vision of the Rev. Benjamin Kurtz, a Lutheran cleric and editor of the Lutheran Observer. He was a partisan of the American Lutheran viewpoint caught up in a fratricidal battle with Lutheran orthodoxy. The Missionary Institute sustained his viewpoint in the preparation, gratis, of men called to preach the gospel in foreign and home missions. A complementary purpose was to educate young people in Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania at both the Institute and its sister school, the Susquehanna Female College. When the Female College folded in 1873, the Institute became coeducational.
