Reasoning Together
“The Real Thing”
Grounded in a consideration of what constitutes “the real thing” in contrast to various counterfeits where human sexuality is concerned, the issue of sexual revolution is examined along with the challenges to the community of healers. The thesis presented is that, in contrast to the typical definition, true sexual revolution consists of spiritual influences that have called humanity back to the nature and function of sexuality as created and inte…
Human Sexuality in a Sexually Polymorphous World
There is no question about the fact that human sexuality in our world today manifests an incredibly broad spectrum of values, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors. Our own nation is host to hundreds of different ethnic and cultural groups, each with its own views and practices of sexuality. In the world at large, almost 200 different nations have an array of cultures within them as well (Rathus, Nevid, & Fichner-Rathus, 2002). Such incredible divers…
Promoting 20/20 Vision
A recent sermon entitled Blessings of Spiritual Vision began with the minister (Adams, 2002) sharing the fact that the most popular and widely sought surgical intervention today is laser eye surgery which is observed to be safe, relatively affordable, and capable of restoring many people's vision to the good vision standard of 20/20 eyesight. Building upon the vision metaphor, he drew our attention to the words of the Apostle Paul recorded in Act…
Human Sexuality in a Sexually Polymorphous World, Part II
noted in the introduction to Part I, we live in a world that manifests a complex and often confusing array of values, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors regarding human sexuality, particularly in the midst of the current context of postmodern thought. Elaine Storkey (2001) observes, most social commentators, post-modernity marks the end of any single, that attempts to offer valid explanations (p. 52). In the absence of such a unifying worldview an…
The importance and the Difficulty of Doing Research with a Missionary Population
In a recent study, 50 mission boards were contacted and over 300 first-term missionary appointees were asked to participate in research on the predictive validity of the Cross-Cultural Adaptability Inventory. The research took place in two phases: one before the missionaries left for their respective fields and the second after approximately six months on the field. Fifty missionaries agreed to participate in the study and met the qualifications …
Psychological Wholeness and the Needs of Man Where Psychology and Theology Meet
Is an “interpersonal” theology possible without a “transactional” foundation? In an editorial entitled “Welcome 'Green-Grass’ Evangelicals,” Dr. Bernard Ramm, Professor of Systematic Theology, Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Philadelphia, outlined eight criteria characterizing a new theological movement which he sees emerging from the ranks of evangelicalism. He finds them to be psychologically sophisticated and theologically interpersonal.…
