		<description><![CDATA[On May 2,  I participated for the first time as dean in the School of Divinity’s 2013 graduation commissioning service. The image that came to my mind was that of Elijah’s “graduation.” The scriptures tell us of course that Elijah was taken up to heaven in a whirlwind on a chariot of fire (2 Kings [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The question of What is Evangelicalism? rages on. For me, David Bebbington’s by now classic “quadrilateral” definition – in which the defining features of Evangelicalism include its biblicism, crucicentrism, activism, and conversionism – remains an adequate starting point. However, so many other variables come into play, which lead to disputes, even among those who can [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[George Marsden suggests that a characteristic of evangelicalism is its transdenominational nature. What he means is that evangelicals seem at home in parachurch ministries and organizations that transcend any particular denominational structure. Transdenominationalism is about cooperation across denominational lines through mediating institutions like InterVarsity Fellowship. The point is that evangelicalism does not exist apart from [...]]]></description>

Others say that the renewal of the Spirit simply makes new, so that one can go not only from “death” to “life” (a [...]]]></description>
