‘Super Spectacular’ children’s program Sunday

[APRIL 18, 2002]  Lincoln Church of Christ, 800 Pulaski St., will have a special program for children on April 21 at 10 a.m. This is a "Super Sunday Spectacular." Children are invited to a morning of singing, learning and fun.

"We hope you’ll be able to join us as we sing songs to the Lord and read from his word, the Bible," says Harold Driskell, evangelist at the church.  

"No Super Sunday Spectacular would be complete without a special visit from our friends the puppets! Be sure to come see how TC deals with Jimbo the bully!"

The worship service will follow at 11 a.m. The public is invited to all services.


LCCS to host Christian Women’s Conference

[APRIL 15, 2002]  Lincoln Christian College and Seminary will host its annual Christian Women’s Conference (formerly Ladies’ Day) on Wednesday, April 24. The theme for this year’s conference is "We Shall be Changed."

The event brings more than 1,500 women from across the country to the LCCS campus and Lincoln community for a day of worship and fellowship, along with insightful presentations and workshops offered by internationally known speakers and best-selling authors.

This year’s conference will feature four key speakers, Sylvia Harney, Linda Mirante, Joanne Wallace and Yvonne Howard Chapman. They will bring their experience and wisdom to the Hargrove Chapel Auditorium to encourage and inspire women in all stages of their Christian walk.

Focusing on the theme of change, the noon workshops will dig deeper into issues that touch the lives of women today. The topics include:

•  "Changes in the Church — Custom vs. Contemporary," with Dr. Robert Lowery, LCS professor

•  "Changing the Boundaries of Your Family — Who is My Sister?" with Janet Shaw, LCC professor

•  "Changing from Mistakes and Sin," with Chaplain Major Karen Diefendorf, 8th Army, Seoul, Korea

The offering collected from the conference will be used for seminary scholarships for female students, in honor of Lincoln Christian Seminary’s 50th anniversary.

A continental breakfast and box lunch will be provided for all guests. Registration and coffee hour begins at 8 a.m. The conference will conclude at 4:30 p.m.

For further information about registration, call Bev Kurka, 1 (888) 522-5228, Ext. 2222.

LCC professor named VP
of theological society

[APRIL 6, 2002]  Dr. Robert C. Kurka, professor of Bible and theology at Lincoln Christian College, is the newly elected vice president of The Midwest Regional Evangelical Theological Society. His selection took place at the organization’s 47th annual meeting, which was March 22-23 in Wheaton.

In his new role, Kurka’s duties will include administrating the student paper competition, securing publisher participation and assisting the new society president, Dr. Ardel Caneday of Northwestern College in Minnesota, for the 2003 regional meeting in St. Paul, Minn. Following next year’s meeting, Kurka will become president of the regional organization and host the 2004 meeting on the campus of Lincoln Christian College and Seminary.

The Evangelical Theological Society was founded in 1949 "to foster conservative Biblical scholarship by providing a medium for the oral exchange and written expression of thought and research in the general field of the theological disciplines as centered in Scripture" (ETS Constitution, Article II). More than 3,100 scholars and students are members of the national Evangelical Theological Society. The national society president is the well-known theologian Dr. Millard Erickson of Baylor University.

Two LCS professors publish writings

[MARCH 30, 2002]  LCCS professors Dr. Gary Hall and Dr. James Sennett will be seeing their individual works in print. Both professors have written articles for publication in the Stone-Campbell Journal. 

Dr. Hall, professor of Old Testament at Lincoln Christian Seminary, has authored a paper titled "A Critique of the Place of the Old Testament in the Early History of the Stone-Campbell Movement," which appears in the spring issue of the Stone-Campbell Journal. His critique looks at the attitude toward the Old Testament in the writings of the Stone-Campbell movement leaders in the 19th century.

This is the second time Hall’s writings have appeared in the journal. His previous article for the journal appeared in the spring 1998 issue and was on the rhetorical use of chiasms in Deuteronomy. He is also the author of "Deuteronomy," a commentary published by College Press in 2000. He is currently co-authoring his second book, which is an introduction to the Old Testament.

Dr. Sennett, professor of philosophy and interdisciplinary studies for Lincoln Christian College and Seminary, was selected to read a paper at the Stone-Campbell Journal Conference in St. Louis in March.

Additionally, his article "Stopping Hume’s Stopper: A Rejection of a Traditional Attack on Natural Theology" will be published in the fall 2002 issue of the Stone-Campbell Journal. The article is available right now at http://www.lccs.edu/~jsennett/stopper.htm

Sennett will chair a session at the American Philosophical Association meeting in Chicago in May.
