Matthew 20:20-28; Philippians 1:1-2Deacons: Servant LeadersRev. Erik Veerman6/4/2023 In just a couple of weeks will be our third anniversary as a church. It's hard to believe. A lot has happened since we launched. But I think you would agree, it been encouraging and a blessing. Part of that was becoming an official church in our denomination. That happened last August where we ordained our first set of elders and deacons. So, this year is our second round of officer nominations. And the reason we've taken a couple of sermons to focus on elders and deacons is that we are still setting the trajectory of our church. We won't have sermons like this every year, but I think it is helpful in these formative years.You'll note in your bulletin that we have two scripture readings for our sermon text this morning.On the surface, it's a strange combination. The first is from Matthew 20. In that passage, Jesus speaks about the importance of being a servant. The second passage is the apostle Paul's introduction to his letter to the church in Philippi.They're relate because both passages use the Greek words diakonos. Diakonos is the word for deacon or servant. In fact, if you have an English Standard Version, ESV, you'll see footnotes to those words.Last week, we considered elders, and so this morning, our focus is on deacons. And part of understanding the role of deacon (or, as we say, the “office” of deacon) is to understand the word itself and its various uses.So, let's now come to God's Word.StandFirst, Matthew 20:20-28. You'll find that on page 981 in the provided Bibles. Reading of Matthew 20:20-28.If you would turn now to Philippians 1:1-2. That can be found on page 1164. Again, just the first two verses of Philippians chapter 1.PrayerIf you had lived in Rome in the third century, you would have experienced a lot of persecution. In fact, in the year 258, the Roman Emperor declared that all ordained leaders in the church should be executed.And not only were the church officials to be killed, all of their possessions and the wealth of the church was to be confiscated and added to Rome's coffers. So, on August 6, 258, the head of the Roman church, Callixtus, was martyred. He had been leading a worship service and an in the middle of the service, he was abducted and killed.To comply with the full command, the Roman authority called up the head deacon of the church in Rome. His name was Lawrence of Rome. Only one year earlier, at the age of 22, Lawrence had been ordained as a deacon in the Cathedral church. Well, the Roman guard demanded of Lawrence that he gather all the wealth of the church in Rome and turn it over to the state. The historian Ambrose wrote that deacon Lawrence asked for three days to do that. He was granted that request. But in those few days, instead of gathering the treasury of the church, he distributed the treasury, all of it, to the poor and the suffering and the sick in the church.On the third day, Lawrence was called to appear before the prefect of Rome. He demanded that Lawrence yield the full treasury of the church. In response, as Ambrose wrote, Lawrence brought forward many of the poor and suffering, whom he had helped. They all stood there in the presence of the Roman authority. Then Lawrence declared, “Behold in these persons are the treasures and crown of the church which I promised to show you.”As you can imagine, that infuriated the Roman prefect. It didn't take long for Lawrence to be seized, persecuted (literally half his body burned), then imprisoned, and soon after martyred.I would put it this way: Lawrence of Rome's acts of service capture the essence of what it means to be a deacon. He stewarded the resources of the church. He served her mercy needs (the needs of the people), and all with humility and self-sacrifice, honoring those he served.But the question is, if that exemplifies the role of a deacon (service, stewardship, mercy, humility, and self-sacrifice), where in the Bible do we learn that? And actually, that's a hard question!You see, for elders, we have explicit passages like the one we looked at last week, 1 Peter 5. There is a command there to shepherd the flock. We also have examples like Acts 15 when the elders gathered to discuss a theological matter relating to the church. Or Acts 20 when Paul called the Ephesian elders and exhorted them to care for, protect and oversee the flock by the word of God's grace. Even in 1 Timothy 3, the qualification of elders, there is a clear indication that elders need to be able to teach the Word. And 1 Timothy 5 references elders who labor in the preaching and teaching the Scri[tures.So, for the office of elder, we're given a clear picture of the their spiritual responsibilities.The responsibilities of deacons, however, are not explicitly described in the Bible. It's almost like we have to back-in to an understanding of what a deacon is called to. We're given several clues and hints. And I think it's because the role of deacon has more variety to it depending on a church's situation and the time in history. Elders, on the other hand, have a more clearly defined responsibility. The spiritual needs of people are similar no matter what century or context. We all need the spiritual guidance and care, and we all need to be instructed in God's Word. What I'm saying is that the role of elder has a more defined scope and the role of deacon fluctuates based on a church's needs. Let me put it this way. Elders are given defined responsibilities for their role. Deacons are given defined principles for their role.So, then, what are those principles and what does that mean for us? My goal this morning is to answer those two questions.Before we get there, I think it's important to note that the Bible clearly establishes the formal role of deacon. Yes, as I mentioned earlier, the word for deacon is also the general word for servant. And we're going to come back to that in a few minutes, but first, two places in the New Testament talk about the formal office of deacon.The first passage we read. Philippians 1, verses 1-2. The apostle Paul, along with Timothy, were writing to the church in Philippi, but with the special mention of the overseers and deacons. He writes this: “To all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons.” That word overseer is used synonymously with the word for elder in multiple places in the New Testament. So, what this salutation does is indicate the two formal positions in the church - overseers (or elders) and deacons.Those two offices are also clearly indicated in 1 Timothy chapter 3. We didn't read 1 Timothy 3 this morning, but we looked at it last year. In 1 Timothy 3, the apostle Paul is writing to Timothy, and he is explicitly telling Timothy who is qualified for formal leadership in the church. Paul lists two official positions and their qualifications. First, qualifications for elders, and second, qualifications for deacons. So that is the second place in the New Testament where the role of deacon is identified.Let me make a side note – these passages only list two formal roles or offices. Overseers and deacons. The list doesn't include rectors, bishops, or priests. No, just two offices. Other churches like Anglican or Episcopal churches have multiple layers of church leadership, but the New Testament just focuses on two offices. Elders and Deacons. By the way, that is one distinguishing characteristics of a Presbyterian church – the belief that the New Testament only defines these two offices for the church.OK, so as we consider deacons, the natural question is this, what exactly defines their role?And to answer that question, I want to give you two principles this morning.Principle #1 – Deacons are co-laborers with Elders in the ordained leadership of the church. Co-laborers. In other words, they work together. They compliment and support one another in their work.And really, the reason they are co-laborers comes from the very same two texts we looked at. The two offices go together. They are meant to. It is a team effort and partnership in serving and supporting the needs of a church family. And that realization tells us a lot about the role of deacon. As I mentioned several passages speak about elders, and I would say, those passages also help us to understand the role of deacon. You ask, “how?” Well, because they are distinct roles and since we've been given direction on the role of elder, that means that the role of deacon is complimentary to the role of elder.Last year, one of our elders, Jeff Chinery, preached on the role of deacon. I loved his sermon title: “*everything else.” He made the case that deacons are to serve the church in support of the elders, so that the elders can focus on shepherding and teaching.I think this is most exemplified in the book of Acts chapter 6. We've looked at that chapter in the past. What was happening in the early church in Acts 6 is that the church was growing so fast, the apostles could not keep up with the needs of the church body. And so word came back that the Hellenist widows had been neglected. They were underserved. Their needs were not being met by the ministry of the apostles and disciples.And so the apostles gathered the church leadership together. They selected seven men who they appointed to support the work. The purpose of the seven was to serve the mercy needs of the people, so that the apostles could remain focused on their task of preaching and teaching. These seven were godly men, full of “wisdom and of good reputation,” it says.And so the church set aside these men for the task. The apostles formally laid their hands on them, prayed for them, and dedicated their service to the church family.To be sure, the formal title of “deacon” is not used in Acts 6, so I don't think this explicitly ties to the role of deacon. However, I do believe that Acts 6 gives us a pattern to follow. • First, it shows us that there are different types of needs in the church – spiritual and tangible. • Second, the ministry of teaching and shepherding is furthered when the mercy needs of the church family are cared for separately. • And third, Acts 6 models setting aside qualified men to formally lead. We call that ordaining. I would say, Acts 6 gives us the pattern for ordaining both elders and deacons in the church.Let me state principle # 1 again: Deacons are co-laborers with Elders in the ordained leadership of the church. Both roles support one another but are distinct. That means they work together, pray together, serve alongside one another, and support each other in their God given roles.Part of that unity is captured in 1 Timothy 3. The qualifications for elders includes being gentle and not quarrelsome. Deacons, similarly, are to be dignified and not double tongued – meaning they believe and speak the truth in love. Those qualifications lead to the unity that elders and deacons should have in their work together and in their separate roles.Now, as some of you know, sadly, in local churches, elders and deacons can be at odds with each other. I wouldn't say that it's widespread, but it is common. It can happen when elders see their role as managing rather than shepherding and teaching. Or it can happen when deacons see their responsibility as one of church oversight rather than one of serving.That begs the question, though. What does it mean for a deacon to be a servant?Well, that brings us to principle #2 – Principal 2 is this: Deacons are called to humbly serve the tangible and mercy needs of the church. One more time: Deacons are to humbly serve the tangible and mercy needs of the church.And that has a broad scope. I mentioned earlier that it entails the specific situation and needs that a church and community has. The reason that it's a broad responsibility is that the word servant, diakonos, has a broad use in the Bible. Diakonos appears 31 times in the New Testament. Only three of those are the formal role. Those, again, are found in Philippians 1 and 1 Timothy 3.The rest of the 28 uses are used in different ways, with different emphases applied in different situations. As a noun, the word diakonos is used to indicate someone who is an assistant, or one who cares for the welfare of others, or one who labors in service. As a verb, it's about serving or ministering to someone's needs. In fact, some translations use the word “minister” in those cases. A minister of Christ, a servant of Christ.As an example, let's go back to Acts 6. When some of the widows were inadvertently being neglected, the disciples said, “It is not right that we should give up preaching the word of God to serve tables.” The root of the word “serve” is the word diakonos. Again, it's not used as the formal title of deacon, but it is used in the context of steward and distributing the financial resources of the church. That's what it means there to serve the tables. Now, to be sure, I'm not saying that every use of the word diakonos should be applied to the role of deacon. Rather, my point is to give examples and uses to broaden our understanding of the word.As a matter of fact, Jesus himself used the word diakonos multiple times. Mark records Jesus' words in chapter 9. He said, “If anyone would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.” Similarly in our Matthew 20 sermon text this morning, Jesus said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. It shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant…”You see, leadership in the kingdom of God is upside down from leadership in the world. Greatness comes not through domineering and controlling, but rather through being a humble servant. Of course, that applies to all leadership in the church, but it specifically captures the use of the word diakonos.So, back to principle #2. Deacons are to humbly serve the tangible and mercy needs of the church.A big portion of that is mercy – if the elders are serving the spiritual needs of the church family, the deacons are serving the material or mercy needs of the church family. You know, those times when we each need practical help. That, of course, requires knowing our needs. Asking and seeking out and being able and willing to support those needs.Let me add, it also includes other forms of diakonos service, which frees up the elders to shepherd and teach and pray. That would include stewarding the finances, the facility, and other resources. It doesn't mean exclusively handling all of that but rather taking on the leadership of that work, partnering with others in the church and getting outside help as needed. And I should say, all of it with the support, encouragement, prayer, and oversight from the elders.So, to review first, Deacons co-labor with Elders as the ordained leadership of the church, with unity and peace, caring for the needs of the church body. And second, deacons humbly serve, supporting the mercy needs and stewarding the tangible needs of the church.Let me say one thing that I've heard in the past, but which I disagree with. Some have said that being a deacon is a stepping-stone to being an elder. They've said, it's helpful to be a deacon first before becoming an elder. Honestly, I don't find Biblical support for that. They are two separate roles with two separate giftings. Yes, they overlap in having a humble heart for serving, but the focus of their service is different. It's not that being or becoming a deacon prevents a man from becoming an elder in the future. It's just not a prerequisite. Being a deacon is a high, humble, and honorable call by itself in the church.Now, before tying all this together, let me give you two applications for us.And by the way, this is going to sound very familiar to last week, just applied to deacons.1. First, as we enter these few weeks of officer nominations, seek out men who have hearts of service, who are humble, and who love Christ's church. We have a tremendous group of deacons. Scott, Burt, David, Jonny, and Greg. But as you know, as a young church that is meeting in a school, we have a lot of needs to serve the body. These brothers need more faithful men to continue in their faithful work. Seek them out.2. Second, for the men, here. Do you have a burden to serve? Do you get joy when helping in different ways, whether mercy, whether stewarding the gifts of the church, or helping in other ways. If so, would you pray about receiving a nomination to be a deacon? It is a great call. Ask trusted friends and family. It would truly be a blessing to all of us. A lot of things happen behind the scenes that make Sundays and other ministries happen, and a large part of that is the humble service of deacons – AND, I should add, those who partner with them in the work.Ok, as we draw to a close, let's go to the source of diakonos service in the church. I think you know where I'm going. Last week as we considered the shepherding role of elders, it all came back to the good shepherd who laid down his life for the sheep. He is the source of strength and the model of a true elder. Well, it's the same with deacons. Right after Jesus said that whoever wants to be great among you must serve, he said “for the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve (diakonos), and to give his life as a ransom for many.” The greatest act of diakonos service, ever, was what Christ has done for us, serving by giving his life for many.That's what makes Lawrence of Rome's short life of service so compelling. He could have gathered all the treasures of the church together and just handed them over to the Roman Empire – perhaps his life would have been spared. But instead, he embraced his call. He knew of all the needs of the church family. He knew what would become of him if he distributed the funds to the mercy needs of the church. Yet, he had the high calling in Christ's Church as a deacon, ordained to serve. And so, he fulfilled his role and is now numbered with the martyrs. He served and honored those in the church by sacrificing his life for their wellbeing. What a testimony of the great service and sacrifice of Christ.So, as we continue on in fulfilling our call here in Tucker, may the Lord see fit to raise up more faithful deacons with humble hearts of service, willing to serve because of the service of Christ. Amen

I'm your host, Adam Larson. And this is episode 141 of our series. For today's conversation, we welcome back Anders Liu-Linberg. Anders is an advisor to senior finance and FP&A leaders on how to succeed with business partnering. He is a partner, the chief operating officer and the chief marketing officer for the business partnering Institute. Back in episode 45 of count me in Anders talked about how insight time influence equals impact when it comes to business partnering. In this episode, he focuses on the influence piece of that equation and shares how business professionals can increase their influence across the organization. Keep listening to hear more about business partnering and contributing to overall impact.   Mitch: (00:58) So first Anders, thank you for joining us again in our first podcast episode, I know we really talked about, business partnering at a little bit of a higher level. You know, you gave us your definition of insights, times influence equals impact, and we really appreciated all that information you shared. So we wanted to bring you back and for today's conversation, we really want to dive into the influence piece of that equation and how, developing influence leads to more effective business partnering. So to start off our conversation, you know, as far as influence goes, what is the first step? You know, what does it take to be an influential business leader?   Anders: (01:36) So if you're a finance professional today and you want to influence business leaders, I guess the first simple step that you need to take is to identify who are those business leaders that you're most likely to be supporting, because that are always clear to people, right? So who is, who's my stakeholder, who is this person or these few people that I need to influence? I think that's, that's really step number one. And then step number two, once you have intensified them is really to reach out to them and say, Hey, you know, I used to work in accounting and finance, and now when I get closer to the business and, you know, help you drive your agenda, can we have a talk about what you're doing and how it can maybe help, right? So then you can have the first conversation and of course, then you build on it from there, but at two steps, identify and engage and then, you know, we can get it into the more details.   Mitch: (02:33) And then the business leaders that you work with, they're not always just interested in data and reports, right? There's a little bit more of a relationship, I think that has to be built, especially when we talk about business partnering. So as far as influence, how can I become part of the team?   Anders: (02:49) Yeah. So, so key for someone to send to you is obviously that they trust you and in any kind of human relation, you know, we want to get to know people before we start to trust in them, of course, from a finance and accounting perspective, we come often with the numbers and with the data and, you know, the foundation is that they can trust those, right? If our accounting is not working so well and the numbers keep changing, I mean, we need to fix that foundation first because otherwise there's not going to be any trust. The second bit is then to develop the interpersonal trust and build the relationship that can best too, by spending as much time as possible with your stakeholders. So today many finance teams, you know, they sit on their own floor in the building and they sit together and they do finance stuff. But if you want to build relationships with business leaders, you got to get out from that cubicle and move your desk and your chair down to those people you want to support and sit with them, if not for a full week, then at least three to four days a week. And then maybe you can one day finance because that's the best way to build trust, to be around them, you know, have the coffee side chat and all those small info and sometimes follow up is that we need to do, because that's how you get to know people. And if you don't know people, they probably don't trust you either.   Mitch: (04:09) That's a great point. And it is a lot of times I feel some of those more casual conversations as well, where you kind of learn about each other. So putting yourself out there and kind of forcing that opportunity, I think is a great recommendation, kind of building on this, you know, a little bit more, as far as the steps, is there a proven structure, you know, that could help me to really start influencing these business leaders and the decision-making, you know, beyond the relationships. Now let's get back into the business a little bit.   Anders: (04:36) Yeah. So we generally have like a three-step process you could follow. The first step is what we already talked about is to identify your stakeholders or the business leaders that you want to support. And then do a small, let's say a desktop, a biography of analysis and say, how strong is my current relationship with these stakeholders? How much influence do they have in decision making? And what are the currently thinking about, right? Because then you sort of know, you know, that the important ones where the relationship is maybe not so strong and then maybe they don't have such a good impression of you. That's where you need to start to identify the person and say, Hey, I want to sit down, have a lunch or talk with you. So at that talk with our coffee or lunch, or virtual, whatever it might be, you sit down and talk about three things, introduce yourselves if you haven't done that already talk about how their business is going and then, you know, get an idea about what do they think about finances right now, because that tells you one of their priorities and what do they think if you. Then you had, when you've had that talk would be half an hour, an hour, it doesn't have to be long. Then you go back to them and say, thanks for having that chat with me. Now, I know more about your, let's say your top three priorities. Now I want to try to help you. So, can we discuss how it can be a part of that? And so maybe they have some priorities. Some are maybe very far out in terms of this transformation or some very customer centric things, but some of it could be very relevant also to finance and accounting to get involved in. So you might pick one of that top roads and say, I'm going to spend some time analyzing the numbers and figuring out, you know, what could be some good insights that can help you make better decisions in this area. So you spend the time, you know, then you sit behind the desk, you do analysis. Maybe we still have to work with data reports and analysis, just not as much as we do today to generate those insights. And once you have looked at it and probably have talked to some of the team members and that the business leaders team and develops a business context around it, you put it on the meeting with the stakeholder, at the meeting, you present your insights and say, here's what I've learned about your situation, your priority. And maybe you even come with some suggestions of how you can move forward, but then you discuss the insights, you discuss some actions and then you take action, right? That's how you really get involved in the decision-making of these senior business leaders. They want you there, you got to bring the right things to the table.   Mitch: (07:03) And so again, I just want to kind of recap the equation, if you will, that you put out there, insights, times influence equals impact. And I know you were just talking about insights, so tying it all together, a lot of times, as you said, finance professionals have the insights, right? They have the numbers, they have the data, and we're talking today about developing that influence. So even as you follow this proven structure, these three steps that you just summarized for us, I think it's pretty often that you'll see the decisions that are made from your insights are often relayed to you after the fact, right? So a lot of people interested in business partnering, you know, that end piece of the equation, making an impact. They want to get ahead of the curve. They want to be a part of the decisions. So how do I get ahead of that curve and how do I become, somebody who can be consulted for these decisions moving forward?   Anders: (07:54) So I think, I think it's important to state that, you know, Rome wasn't built in a day. So just because you start to come with some great insights, they might say, thank you might have a discussion with you, but there's decisions might still be made behind closed doors with other senior stakeholders, but what's high as you consistently show up with great insights. And you're a great discussion partner and the insights you give these great decisions that leads to great financial outcomes. At the end of the day, the business leaders, they will pull you in more and more. Suddenly, you're not just part of operational discussions where the budget once a year, suddenly you are in part of the strategic discussion to say, what are we going to do in three to five years from now? What do you think business partner and the gold standard of course would be that no business leader would make any important decisions without consulting you the business partner first. But to be honest, I think few people have arrived at this, this stage here. But that's the gold standard you can even go further than, but let's, let's say that for another conversation.   Mitch: (08:58) Okay. That's great. We're again, trying to go full circle here with this conversation and business partnering is such an important topic. It has been for a long time, but it's really top of mind for many finance individuals today. So let's just say I'm often involved in these business leaders decisions. Now, you know, once the decision is made, maybe I don't get the progress, the results, right? The what happens afterwards, then what's really my role. How do I continue to maintain and be a part of that conversation?   Anders: (09:28) I think that that's a great point, right? Because we often talk about business partner as a means to making better decisions in the company. But we also know that just because the decision is made, it doesn't mean that action or the right action is taken, or it could even be the right action is taken, but it doesn't lead to the desired outcome. Right? So the execution part of it while the business partner is not out there moving the nuts and bolts of things that needs to be done, he or she can follow up on these things, be the catalyst that ensures action is taken. And then once action is taken, you follow up on the results, did we achieve what we wanted? If yes, maybe you can push for more, but if, no, you should be part of the conversation to figure out why maybe you would do that independently and come with new suggestions for what to do instead. Right? So business partnering is an end to end activity, starting with, you know, getting hold of the data and the numbers, true to making the decision and going through the whole execution and feedback loop where, you know, so it's, it's a circuit and I think that's very important. It doesn't stop once the decision is made, right. You have to be part of the whole thing.   Mitch: (10:36) So I do want to ask one more question if that's okay, and we can maybe use this as a preview for the next conversation, like you said, but, the end result being impact, right? So if we develop this insight, we follow this full circle of the full feedback loop. And after a decision is made finances, such an evolving function right now, what does impact really look like? And what should a business partner really kind of be focused on when it comes to analyzing the results of the decisions that have been made?   Anders: (11:04) Yeah, so I think, you know, if we talk about the outcomes that we want to create business partners, or, you know, the fan is functioning in general and how we want to measure ourselves. And we firmly believe there are three things to look at. The first is, are we as a business achieving the goals that we want, you know, could be a relational, tactical, strategic goal, and, you know, you name it, but how are we reaching our meeting of beating those goals? That is number one, because we were failing business, we also failing in finance. We cannot succeed in finance by improving a process or, you know, making a nicer tool or something like that. We can only succeed if the business succeeds. So that's, that's number one. Number two is then are you part of it? Are you part of the success and a good measure to look at there is customer feedback or stakeholder feedback. So as a finance function or an individual with multiple stakeholders do you actually ask for feedback, am I part of creating these results here or am I just the person that comes to the report, because obviously those are two different things. And, you know, by all means it could be that the stakeholder says, yeah, you're a great support, I love the report, and I can really use it for a lot, but then you're still just doing the report. That's probably half the third step. The third step is to sort of document what have you been doing to help create this impact? And we use a simple formula there called SCRI most the situation pose the challenge we face as a business that we needed to overcome. What resolution did we come up with and what was the impact? So you sort of, as a finance professional to try to have not a few of these impact stories documented throughout the year. So at the end of it, you know, finance get some power for ourself and say, we have these 35 fantastic impact stories that we were part of to help the business succeed. And boy, did we have a good year this year? Right? So we were also part of the success finance, but those are the three things, you know, how we succeeded in the business, how are we getting good customer feedback? And can we actually document and articulate what our role was in that success?   Closing: (13:09) This has been count me in IMA's podcast, providing you with the latest perspectives of thought leaders from the accounting and finance profession.

Monday, 25 January 2021 An online lecture as part of the Out of the Ashes Lecture Series, with Corine Wegener, Director, Smithsonian Cultural Rescue Initiative titled 'Evidence Aiding Post-Conflict Recovery: Mosul Museum Project Zero'. In 2014, Daesh (aka ISIS) established their so-called “Caliphate” in the city of Mosul and cut a swath of intentional destruction of cultural heritage across Iraq's Nineveh plain. After the liberation of Mosul in 2017, international organizations began to offer help with cultural recovery, including the heavily damaged Mosul Cultural Museum. As a potential war crime scene under the definition of the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict, heritage professionals realized they had only one chance to document the evidence before recovery began or risk losing it forever. In a unique collaboration with law enforcement professionals, the Smithsonian Institution developed a methodology to systematically document cultural destruction where criminal activity is known or suspected. Wegener will describe how the methodology was used to document the Mosul Cultural Museum as a “cold case crime scene” and how it may be used in the future as the first step on the road to recovery. About Corine Wegner Corine Wegner is the director of the Smithsonian Cultural Rescue Initiative (SCRI), an outreach program dedicated to the preservation of cultural heritage in crisis situations in the U.S. and abroad. SCRI's work includes projects in Syria, Iraq, Haiti, Nepal, and around the world. SCRI also co-chairs, with FEMA's Office of Environmental and Historic Preservation, the Heritage Emergency National Task Force, part of the U.S. National Disaster Recovery Framework. Wegener lectures and writes about the importance of cultural property protection during natural disasters and armed conflict. Wegener has a bachelor's degree in Political Science from the University of Nebraska Omaha and MA degrees in Political Science and Art History from the University of Kansas. About the Out of the Ashes Lecture Series This three-year lecture series explores the theme of cultural loss and recovery across the centuries, from the destruction of the Library of Alexandria in antiquity to contemporary acts of cultural loss and destruction. A panel of world-leading experts reflects on how societies deal with cultural trauma through reconstruction and commemoration, and on how the international community should respond to cultural loss. The series is global in scope, pan-historical and multi-disciplinary in approach, and features international scholars and practitioners of the highest calibre. Year 3 (2020–1) Recovering draws together the themes of the series by exploring how we recover from cultural trauma—such as the tragic loss of the National Museum of Brazil in 2018—both literally through reconstruction of lost archives and artefacts, and also socially through the creation of sites of cultural memory, whether virtual or real. The lectures also consider the debate on restitution and contemporary campaigns for repatriation—notably the case of the ‘Migrated Archive' consisting of thousands of files from former British colonial possessions whose existence was illegally kept secret in breach of the Public Records Act (UK). A special panel event ‘Recovering Lost Voices', will focus on suppressed histories and the unwritten archive, reflecting on issues of power and gender. The Out of the Ashes lecture series is generously supported by Sean and Sarah Reynolds.
