From the editors To promote Christian community and fellowship among the body of Christ at TBS, peer-to-peer encouragement and a glimpse of Seminary life.

In Life Together, Dietrich Bonhoeffer reminds us that it is a privilege “to live in visible fellowship with other Christians.” (Life Together, 18) We must remember the great privilege we experience in Toronto: being in contact on a daily basis with many other Christians and being able to enjoy it freely. To this end, we commit this first edition of the new Seminarian to friendship. While the Church proper enjoys fellowship in many different ways, there is one, unique experience that only a few ever know–that of the Seminarian. We wish to promote community at TBS, for the seminarians have a unique time to make friendships with Christians who are taking the call to service seriously. We are not hoping to promote shortterm, generic friendships here at TBS, but rather long-lasting, ministry-bolstering friendships; friendships that go deep and long, rather than staying on the surface. In the words of John Piper, “You can rake and get leaves, or you can dig and find gold.” So let us dig deep with one another and find those precious bonds that will be used of the Spirit throughout our ministries and our lives.

As Luke’s book of Acts gives us a glimpse into the lives of the early believers, so we hope to accomplish something similar with the rebirth of the Seminarian. We hope that the Seminarian will become a medium by which non-seminarians and seminarians alike can gain a glimpse of what it looks like to be a student at seminary. We also hope to promote what life as a seminarian should look like. It is hoped that the Seminarian will act much like the bulletin board in an old-time town square: letting people know what has happened in

the community, letting seminarians know what is going to happen, and containing pieces for the edification of the community. To this ideal, the rebirth of the Seminarian dedicated.

Upon receiving this issue of the Seminarian, you may ask yourself, “What is meant by ‘rebirth’?” The Seminarian is not new, rather, it is as old as the school itself. Today in our journal room, however, the earliest issue we could find was a graduation issue from 1948–1949. For TBS faculty and seminarians, 1949 was an uneasy year, since the school had just experienced a split “not due to theology,” between the founder and president, Dr. T. T. Shields (1873–1955) and the school’s second dean, Rev. W. Gordon Brown (1904–1979). From then on, students like G. A. Adams, Guy Appéré, and B.R. OatleyWillis were involved in editing this student journal, making it a student voice to the world and a window into the life of this small but faithful student body.

Time flies, and the Seminarian survived with TBS, and became murmuring voices, witnesses unto the Lord the seminarians believed. Flipping through pages of previous issues, we found a rich heritage of faithfulness to the Gospel, as well as to the joy of the TBS body. About a decade ago, the Seminarian was stopped for various reasons. And though a few people worked for its return, the Seminarian was not read among students for a decade. “History became legend, and legend became myth.” (Tolkien) Now, after many prayers and discussions, we bring back to you the forgotten “voice” desiring that the Seminarian would be more than a voice, that it would be a call to a lifestyle.

TBS’s first dean, Rev. T. I. Stockley, D.D., once wrote about busyness, “Every minister who would be a real leader of men should prove his capacity by showing that he can do the work of two or three ordinary men. But if we cannot do that, at least let us learn the wisdom of not complaining of our burdens, or telling anybody that we are busy.” (The Gospel Witness, April 10, 1930, p5) 5

Knitting Souls Together B. Andrew Song

Editor: What does friendship mean?

This essay explains and calls for the recovery of the biblical, spiritual, and true friendship, long celebrated by Christians.

Recent events in the local political circle once again prove an unchangeable rule, that is “a man is known by the company he keeps.” Friends are important. Almost in every culture, ancient and modern, have some wisdom sayings addressing friendship. Friendship has never been out of fashion through generations, since people long for friends, and try to learn how to be a good friend. Yet, friendship in our postmodern society has been attacked shatteringly by the popularization of the consumer-driven therapeutic individualism, and the development of social networks. As a result, the word “friend/friendship” has

been watered down in its meaning, and is used lightly.

In 2006, secular researcher Tom Rath in his book Vital Friends, warned that friendship is fundamentally necessary for human survival. Rath argued that the quality of friendship is far more important than its quantity.1 In other words, though you may have thousands of “friends” on Facebook, but if none could mourn with you for your loss you are still friendless (for instance, Jay Gatsby in F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby). Rath then based on survey research, presented eight types of friends people need in order to develop better friend relationships. These eight types are: builder (“motivators”), champion (back-up, “stand up for you”), collaborator (people who have similar interests), companion (always be with you), con8

3

necter (plug you into bigger network), energizer (“fun friends”), mind opener (inspirer), and navigator (director).2 Though Rath’s “eight vital friends” by its definition is sound, there are some problems with it. First, it is hard for people to make friends by labeling each other’s worth, as either a builder, or a navigator. Second, if we make friends with such a checklist, we then loose the meaning of friendship. Even though Rath’s friendship is a win-win formula, it is like a business project, which is for one person’s benefit. Contrary to Rath, C. S. Lewis describes friendship as “the instrument by which God reveals to each the beauties of all the others,”3 and speaks real friendship as “a sort of secession, even a rebellion.”4 In the Old Testament, we read about the precious friendship between prince Jonathan and his father’s kingship-intimidator David, how the souls of these two men knit together, and how they loved each other as their own soul (1 Sam 18:1–5). The Scripture tells us that this precious relationship between David and Jonathan bonded with love, which is so different from romantic love. Hugh Black helps us to understand this image, that “the privileges and responsibilities of a biblical friend entail strong emotional attachment and loyalty.”5 Too many people today have abandoned this precious virtue in their friend relationship. Jesus commands all his disciples to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow him (Matt 16:24). This is a radical commandment, since it requires Jesus’ disciples to die to themselves. This is in conflict with our very nature, since our problem is self-centeredness and self-love. In fact, we love ourselves too much, and such self-love is even greater than the love to our Creator and Saviour. Thus, self-denial is a spiritual practice to move our attention away from ourselves, rather to the one whom we call friend. Jonathan and David loved

9

4 5

each other as one, and cared for each other’s feelings and souls. By understanding this, two friends would spend time together, in order to share each other’s joy, sorrow, passion, frustration, anger, and even complain together. This then requires us to understand Facebook “friends” are not friends at all, since friendship requires face-to-face encounter, as David to Jonathan in the Old Testament, and Jesus to his disciples in the New Testament.

People cannot enjoy a real and trustworthy friendship, unless they step out of their ghetto, and interact with real humans through the senses, like speaking, listening, seeing, and even touching one another. And because of such knitting of souls, when friends fail through mistakes, a true friend would hardly oppose and correct the beloved friend, which is beautifully described in Proverbs as “iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.” (Prov 27:17) Friendship thus becomes a means for people’s spiritual growth. Esther Edwards Burr, who was the daughter of Jonathan Edwards, in letters to Sarah Price, one of her lifelong friends, always wrote encouraging Sarah’s spiritual growth, while receiving Sarah’s encouragement. At one place, Esther wrote to Sarah, that she “can only look to the example of my beloved friend [Sarah].” Kind of like accountability partners to each other, Esther and Sarah enjoyed honesty with each other, since both Esther and Sarah understood that, by being honest with each other, friends can know, understand, pray for, approach, correct, and encourage each other in a charming manner, and it is purely for the benefit of each other’s spiritual growth. As a spiritual practice, Esther also warned her friend to protect this precious relationship, since sin

would make people want to break their friendship by using many means, such as criticism, and gossip. Thus, it is essential for friends to be warned at the beginning that they shall arm their friendship, and through prayers ask God to preserve the friendship, which is good.

What then does friendship have to do with me, a Seminarian?

Seminary is a unique place. It is not a church, and it is different from a secular college/university. It is a place where called Christian men and women of different churches gather and it is a place which God uses to train us for the labour in his Kingdom. As we work hard on Greek, Hebrew, and all the other courses, let us not forget that we need friendships that like between Jonathan and David, Esther and Sarah, Tolkien and Lewis. A friend’s soul is knitted together with ours, and is able to laugh with us, cry with us, and suffer with us.

Let us also not forget, we need some true friends, who are able to rebuke us our face from the spiritual and theological mistakes we have made, for instance, pride!

O friend, my bosom said, Through thee alone the sky is arched, Through thee the rose is red, All things through thee take nobler form And look beyond the earth, And is the mill-round of our fate, A sun-path in thy worth.

Me too thy nobleness has taught

The universe operates according to a causeand-effect framework. When matter is acted upon, change happens. When a match is struck, fire flares. When food cooks, hungry stomachs grumble. And when a pastor befriends a young man, the kingdom advances.

This last equation might seem simplistic. But God doesn’t need us to conduct mass evangelistic rallies or dream up growth plans with Scurves. He simply calls wise men of God to befriend young men and disciple them for ministry. When God’s shepherds invest in young Christian men by befriending them, the young men will be transformed. When they are transformed, they are hungry to minister to others.

In what follows, we will consider the biblical picture of invested friendship, a personal testimony of such friendship, and then a few practical principles. As a Timothy, I hope that these words will be used to encourage you to invest in young men in your local church.

TWO BIBLICAL PICTURES OF INVESTED FRIENDSHIP: CHRIST AND PAUL The gospels clearly communicate the idea that Jesus befriended and loved his apostles. As the apostle John describes

13

14

4 3

the scene in which Jesus predicts Judas’ betrayal, John sets the stage by writing, "there was reclining on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved" (John 13:23). John often used the phrase "the disciple whom Jesus loved" to describe himself (John 19:2627, 20:2-9; 21:1, 20-23). This is telling. Jesus was not an austere lecturer or an emotionally distant preacher. He was a personal friend of his disciples to the point that they were assured of his love. He relaxed with them, letting them rest against his chest. He traveled with them. He preached with them. He cried with them. And he shared joy with them.

This was deep, soul-shaping friendship. It was the kind that every young man desires, and few young men receive.

The apostle Paul understood that it was his responsibility to follow in Christ’s footsteps.

We get a glimpse of his love for Timothy in the opening verses of 2 Timothy. The very context of this letter is moving. Paul, the apostle who suffered so powerfully for the gospel of Christ, was soon to die, and it seems that he knew this. In the first seven verses of this second letter to Timothy, Paul pours out his love for his disciple. In verse two, he calls Timothy his "beloved son." In verse three, he says that he "constantly remembers [Timothy] in his prayers night and day." In verse four, he says that he is "longing to see" Timothy, whom he "recall[s] with tears," because he wants "to be filled with joy."

Like Christ, Paul shows great affection for his disciple. Like Christ, Paul’s discipleship of Timothy transcended mere education. Like Christ, Paul did not simply befriend Timothy, but cherished him. Paul’s example should drive us past the meaningless, the ordinary, and the polite and bring us to the demanding, expensive work of invested friendship.

PERSONAL REFLECTIONS ON INVESTED FRIENDSHIP It is special to be trained by a godly pastor. It is even more special to be befriended by a godly pastor.

I speak as one who was befriended by a pastor some years ago. Like Christ and Paul, this man loved me. Our relationship was not complex. It was not based on a unique, nontransferrable model. He simply befriended me and invested in me over a period of time.

He invited me over to his study and talked with me. He listened to my frustrations about women. He poked fun at me. He gave me insightful advice about jobs. He let me join him in his study while he worked on sermons (I did my own work). He took me on walks on which we reflected together on a number of things—his family, his burdens, his joys. He discipled me, yes, but he did so through friendship.

As a Timothy, I have benefited immeasurably from having a man to learn from, to work beside, and to share the experiences of life.

My future ministry will be sharpened and honed by more experiences in days to come, but the foundation was set by the invested friendship of my former pastor.

Pastor, let me encourage you to befriend possible future shepherds in your congregation. Your friendship, alongside efforts to personally train them for ministry, will transform them. It will assist them long after the textbooks and lecture notes are forgotten.

PRACTICAL PRINCIPALS FOR INVESTED FRIENDSHIP There are a few principles that, when put into practice, may help you in your work to befriend your disciple.

close to us.

1. Invite them to work with you Pastors should bring other men into their everyday working life. From watching my pastor prepare sermons, and interacting with him intermittently as he went, I learned to prepare my own. From listening to him give counsel, I learned to counsel. From watching him run meetings, I learned to administer effectively. Watching how my pastor work taught me how to work and brought much enjoyment and counsel to me.

2. Invite them to relax with you In discipleship, pastors are teaching their charges a lifestyle. Your disciple needs to have fun with you, relax with you, do boring things with you like run errands. I learned how to be discerning with media, in part, from the way my former pastor dealt with movies and television. I’ve learned how to play basketball with grace from competing with one of my elders. All told, I’ve learned at least as many lessons outside of the office as I have in it.

3. Show them genuine passion Young people are passionate and attracted to passion, sincerity, or earnestness. I’m not saying that every pastor needs to have an effusive personality. But young men will connect with pastors who clearly love their work and believe it’s meaningful. They will also benefit when pastors communicate passion or strong conviction for the work of discipleship and the future ministry of their charges. It was in part the passion of my pastor that gave me passion in my life and ministry. Passion and sincerity have a way of rubbing off on people, especially those

4. Show them genuine kindness Pastors should show great kindness to their charges. Pastoral discipleship presents a special opportunity to pastors to dish out huge helpings of kindness to another person. My pastor was unfailingly kind to me.

He won my devotion and respect as a result, and gave me a model for my own life.

5. Show them genuineness The young people of today are trained to be cynical. We have grown up amidst the weeds of hypocrisy and deceit. The pastor who speaks honestly about his fears, struggles, hopes, and joys places himself in a position to build a strong friendship with his disciple. My pastor talked honestly with me.

I never doubted whether he was being genuine or not. As a result, a strong trust was forged.

CONCLUDING WORDS Pastor, invested friendship is no small thing.

This work will involve sacrifice and devotion. Yet the result, should you live to see it, will be worth far more than you ever calculated. Let the simple calculus of the universe lead you on when your motivation wanes and the hours grow long. When a pastor befriends a young man, the kingdom advances.

May it go far through your efforts.

Testimony 2+1 When you come from a background where most of your closest friends were atheists, new-agers, or wrapped up in such things as eclectic paganism and the like, suddenly finding yourself surrounded by believers is a shock to the system, and a positive one at that.

Before, if I was depressed or upset, I would receive advice such as: “Well, stuff happens.

Guess you just gotta suck it up and move on,” or “Feeling down? Here, I’ve got a spare joint.” But now I have friends who will come alongside me, pray with me, ask what they can do to serve me well during hard times, share a word from the Scriptures, or even just sit and listen with genuine interest and concern. Such friendships are gems of immeasurable value, and have made TBS a blessing to me that goes beyond words.

-– Adam Paul

Once I had a friend who would come up to me halfway through recess, give me her sopping wet mitts and take my warm, dry mitts. She also told me that we were allowed to be friends at home, but not at school. It took me longer than it should have to realize that this friendship was going nowhere. At TBS, people are the opposite: they take your wet mitts and give you their own warm mitts instead. They also befriend you wherever you are at. This is what Christ has done for Christians. He takes our cold, bedraggled selves and gives us a new life in return. He also dwells with us wherever we are. I have found the way in which fellow TBS students have reached out to me to be a reflection of Christ's friendship and I pray that our friendships will always emulate Christ’s love.

John 15:12-15.

–– Anna MacInnes 17

As one of the oldest students at TBS, I found it a bit of a challenge to develop friendships with people who were, for the most part, a few years older than my oldest daughter. But God did send a few special friends into my life. I was only a mediocre student (without their help and encouragement, I would not have even dared to spell mediocre).

As a struggling new immigrant with three children, I could not even afford a small cup of “double-double;” miraculously they always had an extra “double-double” that I could enjoy with them. We shared our small problems. We cried together. We prayed together. We laughed together. Then we graduated. We left TBS. Today, we still share our problems–big problems. We still cry a little together–too shy to cry a lot. We chuckle a little–too old to laugh out loud. And we pray a lot more together–we need it so much.

Friendships that last beyond one’s TBS years is a gift from God. –– Jacob Nuh (M.Div. 2012), pastor of House of All Nations Church Toronto

# TS On November 2, 2013, an Authentic Community Conference was organized by Harvest Bible Chapel Waterloo Region, Hespeler Baptist Church and Grace Bible Church at Heritage Bible College & Seminary, with the topic, “What we learn from the Trinity.” Dr. Bruce A. Ware, professor of Christian Theology, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, was invited, and gave a three-session lecture on understanding and applying the doctrine of Trinity. The titles of these sessions are: session 1, “beholding the beauty of the Father’s relationship with the Son;” session 2, “beholding the beauty of the Son’s relationship with the Spirit;” and session 3, “beholding the beauty of the relevance of Trinitarian relations to life and ministry.” Toward the end of his last session, Dr. Ware urged his audience to take the Trinitarian lenses, which helps us to understand the Scripture to its point. The organizers have recorded all three sessions in video, and now are available and free to watch online (http://www.harvestwaterlooregion.ca/content.aspx?content_id=354005& site_id=10327). # TS According to The Andrew Fuller Center website, Dr. Michael A. G. Haykin celebrated his 60th birthday on November 24, 2013. By honouring Dr. Haykin’s contribution and achievements in Baptist history and spirituality, a Festschrift entitled The Pure Flame of Devotion was presented to him. This volume was edited by Dr. Steve Weaver and Ian Clary, and features a foreword by Russell Moore and twenty-three essays.

Happy birthday, Dr. Haykin!

Book Reviews Bethke, Jefferson. Jesus > Religion: Why He is so Much Better Than Trying Harder, Doing More, and Being Good Enough.

Nashville, TN: Nelson Books, 2013. 218 pages. $18.99.

Bethke came to prominence through his YouTube controversial poem, “Why I hate religion, but love Jesus.” A year later, after some deep reflections, Bethke finished this new book as an expanded version of the poem. In ten chapters, with his own unique life experiences, he urged his readers to experience the grace of Jesus Christ, who is a person, rather than a deadly system. By using biblical texts, Bethke criticized the fundamentalists (legalistic-traditionalist), the fakes (easy-believism), and the reverse legalists (self-righteousness), by arguing the soleness of Jesus in one’s salvation. Bethke’s book is an enjoyable read, because of his skillful use of words, his friendly approach, and sermon-like message. Russell Moore has written, “Jefferson Bethke turns our attention to Jesus, not as a system or a mascot but as a Person… If you’re tired of bleached grave religiosity, this effervescent book will give you living Christ renewal.”

Alister McGrath’s biography of C.S. Lewis – in honour of the 50th year anniversary of his death – is to be highly commended.

From a reader’s point of view, McGrath’s prose is highly readable and the details which one is afforded in this relatively short biography allow them to see Lewis from a first person perspective and to find themselves endeared to him nonetheless. In terms of originality, McGrath offers a serious revision to the date of Lewis’s conversion, arguing cogently for his point. All will benefit from this new portrait of Lewis, painted by a master Lewis scholar.
