Recorded on 25 July 2024 for ICMDA Webinars. Dr Peter Saunders chairs a webinar with Rev Christo Heiberg What is Islamic Dawa, why should we be concerned and how should the Christian church respond? Islamic Dawa is the Muslim strategy for world domination, designed back in the seventh century. The aim is to transform the whole world into the Dar al Islam (House of Islam) through both peaceful and militant means, so that sharia would apply everywhere, delivering the West and the Rest from its inherent misery. Islamism has two mighty weapons: deception and fear. Only Christ in his Gospel, and through his people, can wrest these mighty weapons from the enemy's hands and conquer the mighty Dragon. Revelation 12 predicted this battle long ago. Christo was born and raised in South Africa. He has a BA (Political Science & BD) from the University of Pretoria and subsequently a Masters in Theology from the Theological School of Kampen in the Netherlands in 2000. He met Margherita on the university campus and married her in 1987. The Lord has blessed them with four children and two grandchildren. Christo is an ordained minister of the PCA in St. Catharines, Ontario, and is involved in both pastoral and missionary work. The latter takes him to Africa twice a year, to train leadership. He has written many articles for Christian magazines and recently published his first book Ultimate Frontier — on the threat of Islamic Dawa. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To listen live to future ICMDA webinars visit⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://icmda.net/resources/webinars/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

The book The Orthodox Church in the World contains theological talks given by the author in Cyprus, Russia, Romania and Georgia at a variety of conferences. The Orthodox Church in the World includes subjects as: Personalism and Person, Theology as Science and as Charisma, The Hesychastic Life according to St Basil the Great, Bringing Up Children Today, Dogma and Ethics and Orthodox Psychotherapy. There are interviews on Therapy and Truth and The Theology of St Gregory Palamas and the Scholasticism of Barlaam, and the final chapter is devoted to St Paissy Velichkovsky – A Great Hesychast Father who “unites the Holy Mountain with the Balkans and Russia.” An unusual feature of The Orthodox Church in the World is the record of the wide-ranging discussions that took place between the author the audience after each talk. Answers are given on issues of the spiritual life, which will help the clergy, monks and laypeople, parents and young people. True theology can transform society. The author points out to his audience the great importance and value of the Church's hesychastic tradition, which gives meaning to life. His Eminence the Metropolitan Hierotheos stresses that Orthodoxy possesses a spiritual therapeutic method for curing human beings so that, once cured, they can meet God as light and Paradise, and not as fire. Curing the human soul is not an individual act, but a method followed within the Church through the Sacraments and asceticism, by which man acquires unity with God. Discerning the depths of his listeners' hearts and their concerns, the author answers them from his heart, revealing aspects of his own personal life. At the end of book, prompted by the publication of the book St Paissy Velichkovsky, by Professor Antonios-Emilios Tachiaos of the Theological School of the University of Thessaloniki, the author identifies basic points from this impressive and surprising biography of St Paissy, who loved hesychia and the neptic tradition of the Church from his youth. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/athonite-audio/support

Let's go shatter a glass steeple or two, shall we?When it comes to women in ministry, the gains have been ever so gradual. And at the top levels of leadership — from seminary faculty and deans to senior clergy positions — women seem to have hit a wall.

In this second to last episode of Season 3, Brie invites process theologian and author Catherine Keller to help explain how process might invite a more compatible paradigm to the efforts of composting Christianity, and a to a more relational and ecological worldview.   Catherine Keller is Professor of Constructive Theology at the Theological School of Drew University. In her teaching, lecturing and writing, she develops the relational potential of a theology of becoming. Her books reconfigure ancient symbols of divinity for the sake of a planetary conviviality—a life together, across vast webs of difference. Thriving in the interplay of ecological and gender politics, of process cosmology, poststructuralist philosophy and religious pluralism, her work is both deconstructive and constructive in strategy.

Medieval and Renaissance Cyprus was a fascinating place of ethnic, cultural, and religious encounters. Following almost nine centuries of Byzantine rule, Cyprus was conquered by the Crusaders in 1191, becoming (until 1571) the most important stronghold of Latin Christianity in the Eastern Mediterranean—first under the Frankish dynasty of the Lusignans, and later under the Venetians. Modern historiographical readings of Cypriot identity in medieval and early modern times have been colored by British colonialism, Greek nationalism, and Cyprocentric revisionism. Although these perspectives have offered valuable insights into the historical experience of Latin-ruled Cypriots, they have partially failed to capture the dynamics of non-coercive resistance to domination, and of identity preservation and adaptation.  Orthodox Cyprus under the Latins, 1191–1571 (Lexington Books, 2018) readdresses the question of Cypriot identity by focusing on the Greek Cypriots, the island's largest community during the medieval and early modern period. By bringing together theories from the fields of psychology, social anthropology, and sociology, this study explores continuities and discontinuities in the Byzantine culture and religious tradition of Cyprus, proposing a new methodological framework for a more comprehensive understanding of Cypriot Orthodoxy under Crusader and Venetian rule. A discussion of fresh evidence from hitherto unpublished primary sources enriches this examination, stressing the role of medieval and Renaissance Cyprus as cultural and religious province of the Byzantine and post-Byzantine Orthodox world. Chrysovalantis Kyriacou (Ph.D.) is a lecturer in Ecclesiastical History at the Theological School at the church of Cyprus. He earned his Ph.D. in history at Royal Holloway, University of London, and has also taught at the University of Cyprus. His area of specialty is late antique, Byzantine, medieval, and early modern history and culture, focusing on the role of Cyprus as a place of ethnoreligious encounter, interaction, and contention.

Medieval and Renaissance Cyprus was a fascinating place of ethnic, cultural, and religious encounters. Following almost nine centuries of Byzantine rule, Cyprus was conquered by the Crusaders in 1191, becoming (until 1571) the most important stronghold of Latin Christianity in the Eastern Mediterranean—first under the Frankish dynasty of the Lusignans, and later under the Venetians. Modern historiographical readings of Cypriot identity in medieval and early modern times have been colored by British colonialism, Greek nationalism, and Cyprocentric revisionism. Although these perspectives have offered valuable insights into the historical experience of Latin-ruled Cypriots, they have partially failed to capture the dynamics of non-coercive resistance to domination, and of identity preservation and adaptation.  Orthodox Cyprus under the Latins, 1191–1571 (Lexington Books, 2018) readdresses the question of Cypriot identity by focusing on the Greek Cypriots, the island's largest community during the medieval and early modern period. By bringing together theories from the fields of psychology, social anthropology, and sociology, this study explores continuities and discontinuities in the Byzantine culture and religious tradition of Cyprus, proposing a new methodological framework for a more comprehensive understanding of Cypriot Orthodoxy under Crusader and Venetian rule. A discussion of fresh evidence from hitherto unpublished primary sources enriches this examination, stressing the role of medieval and Renaissance Cyprus as cultural and religious province of the Byzantine and post-Byzantine Orthodox world.

We speak with Rod Wilson about his just released book, “Thank You, I'm Sorry, Tell Me More: How to Change the World with 3 Sacred Sayings”.   Rod Wilson has worked as a psychologist, served as a pastor in three churches, and held multiple roles in theological education, including President of Regent College in Vancouver from 2000-2015. Rod currently works with Lumara Grief and Bereavement Care Society, A Rocha, The Society of Christian Schools in BC, and In Trust Center for Theological Schools, and maintains an international teaching and mentoring ministry.   Rod's book outlines each of these sayings and then presents very many vignettes of how they function in our lives and relationships. We can't be human with the other. In Hopeful Christian theology we can't be healed (or “saved”) without the other. This book reminds us that the way of humility and love is what allows us to most know our humanity and the humanity of every person whose life meets ours. The sacred sayings are most brought to life with those who are closest to us and those most known over years, friends and family. The sacred sayings are hospitable and healing with those who we barely know and with those who are distant from us or different than us.   Rod has a wealth of insight and experience that he brings to this book. He brings also much of the personal and human from his own relationships.

Rod Wilson believes three short statements have power to change the world: “Thank you!” “I'm sorry!” And “Tell me more!” These statements are ways all people, but especially Christians, can live out the meaning of Jesus' Great Commandment. “How we relate to others flows from our relationship with God. Love is the action. People are the recipients,” Wilson writes. “Expressing ‘Thank you,' ‘I'm sorry,' and ‘Tell me more' to people is putting words to love. I see you. I notice you. We impact each other. For Jesus, loving God but not loving others is the ultimate contradiction,” he concludes. I'll be talking to Rod Wilson about these statements in this episode of the Influence Podcast. I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host.

  We generally hear the word “apocalypse” used in histrionic or fundamentalist ways, but Dr Catherine Keller joins the podcast to affirm the hope of a theology that calls us to action. Reading the book of Revelation not as prophecy of disaster but as an “unveiling” can recall us to a sense of our responsibility in our current global crisis. In this conversation, Catherine reclaims the role of the prophet as someone who sees clearly to tell us that we can do something to change our path, affirming our role as co-creators with God and agents of hopeful possibility. Catherine Keller is a professor in Constructive Theology at the Theological School of Drew University and author of many books. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Preaching for Pentecost Sunday, Dr. Suzanne Nawrocki offers a reflection on the free gift of the Spirit for all: "Maybe John wants to clarify that the Holy Spirit, the love between the Father and the Son is for everyone. That it is for you and for me. But, then it would follow that the command, I send you is also for everyone. I send you to be missionary disciples, yes, but I am also going to equip you. I give you the bond of love that I have for my Father and my Father has for me. A love that Jesus wants us to share with the world." Dr. Suzanne Nawrocki holds a Doctorate in Ministry from Aquinas Institute of Theology, St. Louis where she has previously been an adjunct professor. She is an executive member of the Catholic Association of Homiletics, known as C.A.T.H.; the wider ecumenical group, the Academy of Homiletics; and the international guild Societas homileticus. Dr. Nawrocki assisted in the Practices Peer Forum to update accreditation standards for the Association of Theological Schools, helped the USCCB train clergy on preaching Laudato Si, consulted and lectured for the University of Notre Dame Martin Preaching initiative, and assists the Diocese of Austin Deacon formation in preaching.

We needed to find a way to train pastors who knew how to apply the theology they were learning to real church situations with real people who have real problems. This was the challenge that led to Immerse. Immerse is a competency-based MDiv program where students earn their Masters degree while continuing to work in their ministry context. In this episode, Krista Penner from our Leadership Development team has a conversation with Ruth McGillivray, Interim President at Northwest Seminary & College; Kyle Nichols, Lead Pastor of Princeton Baptist Church; and David Horita, Regional Director of Fellowship Pacific about why this innovative style of education has been so effective in training up pastors. They also share about an exciting new expansion of Immerse that will make this type of learning experience available and accessible to even more leaders, whether in the church or in the community! Resources mentioned in this episode: Immerse MDiv program Immerse MABL program Living Life Backwards by David Gibson RUTH MCGILLIVRAY Ruth joined the staff of Northwest in 2017 as the Director of Competency-Based Education. She has a rich and extensive history in developing CBE programs, having formed such programs in the high-tech and Canadian apprenticeship sectors since the early 1990's. In 2019, Ruth transitioned her role to become Northwest's Chief Innovation Officer, and in 2020, she became the Chief Operations Officer and is currently serving as the Interim President. Ruth has her Master of Arts in Learning and Technology from Royal Roads University. She has been the Conference Director since 2018 for the annual international conference on CBTE, held in partnership with the US-based Competency-Based Education Network (C-BEN), and leads a CBTE Advocacy Group comprised of leaders from the Association of Theological School, In Trust Resource Center, C-BEN, and four seminaries. KYLE NICHOLS Kyle is the lead pastor of Princeton Baptist Church. He and his wife Rachel (who is beautiful and amazing and who suffers patiently with Kyle's many changing interests (imagine it!)), moved to Princeton in 2012 where they started their family (currently holding at three young kids), and where they first felt the call to ministry. Kyle loves his family and is passionate about Christ's church; passionate about seeing us move as a family in the direction God calls us. DAVID HORITA David completed his Master of Divinity at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School and then went on to serve in both small and large churches, including planting a church in Surrey in 1990. During those years he also received his Doctor of Ministry degree and worked extensively on a variety of Fellowship Pacific Boards before stepping into the position of Regional Director. David greatly enjoys working alongside the team in the Fellowship Pacific Ministry Centre, applying much of his education and experience to developing church-focused tools to help them achieve their unique vision within the Kingdom of God. He has been married for over thirty years to his wife Jo-Anna, and they have three adult sons.

Today she'll share the inspirational story for creating the jars seven years ago with her oldest daughter Meredith. Pam grew into her spirituality through her own struggles. At a young age, a teacher told Pam she wasn’t smart. While the teacher was wrong, Pam believed him, and this label left a lasting impression on her. It was then after she lost her mother during her early 20s that Pam grew into her spirituality, and learned to develop her gifts. It was out of a desire to see herself and help others that she pursued her path to become a Spiritual Counselor. Pam is now a conduit to help others address their sorrows, fears and insecurities to find themselves. Today Pam and I talk about spirituality and kindness, and how a her little jar of quotes has had a big rippling effect globally.

This week we speak with Dr. Catherine Keller. Catherine is Professor of Constructive Theology at the Theological School of Drew University. In her teaching, lecturing and writing, she develops the relational potential of a theology of becoming. Her books reconfigure ancient symbols of divinity for the sake of planetary conviviality – a life together, across vast webs of difference. Thriving in the interplay of ecological and gender politics, of process cosmology, poststructuralist philosophy and religious pluralism, her work is both deconstructive and constructive in strategy. Keller has taught since 1986 in the Theological and Philosophical Studies Area of Drew’s Graduate Division of Religion. After studies in Heidelberg and in seminary, she did her doctoral work at Claremont Graduate University with John B. Cobb, Jr., and remains involved with the Center for Process Studies. Through her leadership of the Drew Transdisciplinary Theological Colloquium since its inception in 2000, she fosters with colleagues and graduate students a hospitable context for its far reaching annual conversations. The TTC has yielded a path-breaking series of co-edited volumes. She also enjoys the monthly conviviality of gatherings in which Ph.D. students discuss their work in progress. Catherine Keller's Published Works: From a Broken Web: Separation, Sexism, and Self, Apocalypse Now and Then: A Feminist Guide to the End of the World, Face of the Deep: A Theology of Becoming, God and Power: Counter-Apocalyptic Journeys, On the Mystery: Discerning God in Process, and Cloud of the Impossible: Theology and Planetary Entanglement.

"Fr. Peter Heers is a Greek Orthodox priest with a doctorate in Dogmatic Theology from the Theological School of the University of Thessalonica, where he has also completed his undergraduate studies and Master’s Degree in Dogmatic Theology. He is the rector and spiritual father of the parish of the Holy Prophet Elias in Petrokerasa, a small village in the mountains outside of Thessalonica, Greece. In 2014 he was made Protopresbyteros and Spiritual Father of the Diocese of Ierissou and Agion Oros.Fr. Peter is the author of The Missionary Origins of Modern Ecumenism: Milestones Leading up to 1920, as well as the newly released title, in Greek, The Ecclesiological Renovation of the Second Vatican Council: An Orthodox Examination of Rome’s Ecumenical Theology Regarding Baptism and the Church.Fr. Peter is also the translator of several books, including the Life of Elder Paisios and the Epistles of Elder Paisios, The Truth of our Faith (vols 1&2) by Elder Cleopa and Apostle to Zaire: The Life of Fr. Cosmas of Grigoriou, as well as the best-selling children’s book From I-ville to You-ville.Fr. Peter, in addition to being the founder and current head of Uncut Mountain Press, was also the founder and first editor of “Divine Ascent, A Journal of Orthodox Faith.” He is also the host of the online podcast, Postcards from Greece found at Ancient Faith Radio, and a regular speaker to parish groups in the United States and Canada."His new book, The Ecclesiological Renovation of Vatican II: An Orthodox Examination of Rome’s Ecumenical Theology Regarding Baptism and the Church is now available and functions as the topic of our interview. Fr. Peter enlightens us on the history of Augustinian theology and its influence on western sacramentology and ecclesiology and how this blossomed in full by the time of Vatican II. Consequently, Vatican II utilized the new theology of liberal theologians like Yves Congar (and even John Calvin) and others to extend the doctrine of the Church into relativized non-existence through "minimalism," exemplified in the absurdities and contradictions of the manifold ecumenical manifestations, most notably the coming "Pan-Orthodox Synod" and the review of the ecumenical documents to be discussed.
