SUMMARY:Critical Theory Seminar 2021
DESCRIPTION:Joe Fleener is speaking on this topic/subject at the New Zealand Association of Christian School Teachers’ Conference in Wellington in September.

SUMMARY:Roving Classroom: 3rd Quarter (Exegetical Theology)
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Old Testament Theology Part 2\nInstructor:  Joe Fleener\nHosted by:  Rolleston Baptist\, Rolleston. \nMany Christians are unfamiliar with the content of the Old Testament\, let alone its historical setting and theological purpose for the covenant people of God. In part two of what is planned to be a three-part course we will look carefully at the Prophetic books (Isaiah-Malachi) of the English Old Testament canon. In doing so we will aim to gain a better grasp of their historical setting and God’s purpose in revealing Himself as He has in these books for His covenant people – both Old and New. History and Theology will come together as we bask in the glory of God’s timeless revelation of Himself to His people. \n(For those who would like to complete some advanced\, preparatory reading\, please read the associated chapters from Van Pelt\, Miles V. A Biblical-Theological Introduction to the Old Testament: The Gospel Promised. Crossway. 2017.) \nLocation: Lemonwood Grove School\, 14 Lemonwood Grove Drive. Time: 9.30am – 5.00pm. We would encourage those planning to come to confirm their intention and let us know the details of their flights into and out of Christchurch on that weekend. If anyone wants accommodation we will see what we can do. Please let me know of your plan to come so we can prepare for the printing of the session material\, and the provision of lunch on the Saturday. \nFor any other questions please contact Joe Fleener on 021998167 or via email joe@rollestonbaptist.org.nz

SUMMARY:Roving Classroom: 2nd Quarter (Practical Theology)
DESCRIPTION:Topic: The Preaching of the Gospel in the 18th Century: Revival and Lessons for us\nInstructors: Stephen Turner\, Hanli Liu\, and Dwayne Tongamohenoa\nHosted by:  West Church\, Auckland \nThe cross is the centre of our studies for our 2021 Ministry of the Word classes and we want it to be the central focus for the West Church’s Roving Classroom. We’ve decided to take the historical theological approach to the subject and look at 18th century Welsh Calvinistic Methodism and consider William William’s understanding of the cross in particular. Hanli and Dwayne will consider two other men of that revival period and their understanding of the cross in their preaching and ministry.

SUMMARY:Roving Classroom: 1st Quarter (Historical Theology)
DESCRIPTION:Topic: New Zealand Church History: background and beginnings\nInstructor:  Rob Harrod\nHosted by:  Grace Baptist Church\, Christchurch. \nThe focus of this session will be on the coming of the Gospel to New Zealand in 1814\, and the early decades of labour which followed this. We will first survey some of the significant background events and people which led to the first proclamation of the good news in Aotearoa\, before investigating the challenges faced by the early missionaries as they sought to faithfully live and minister God’s Word among the the unreached people here. Then we will explore and marvel at the powerful gospel work done amongst the Maori\, where the gospel once again proved to be the power of God for salvation (Romans 1:16). Finally we will seek to draw out some of the helpful lessons from this period for our own lives and ministries in the 21st century.

SUMMARY:Roving Classroom: 4th Quarter (Systematic Theology)
DESCRIPTION:Topic: The Ministry of the Word\nInstructor:  Hanli Liu & Stephen Turner\nHosted by:  West Church\, Auckland \nThere is no question that the Word of God ought to occupy a central role in the church. For example\, the apostolic leaders of the New Testament church stated that they would “devote themselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word” (Acts 6:4). Paul’s last letter to Timothy charges him before the presence of God and of Jesus Christ to “preach the word” (2 Timothy 4:2). Without the Word\, we would not have come to a saving faith in Jesus\, for “faith comes from hearing\, and hearing through the word of Christ” (Romans 10:17). Passages like these all throughout Scripture highlight the central role of God’s Word in the church. In this class we will consider what the Scriptures teach about this ‘ministry of the word’ by considering questions such as: What does this term actually refer to? What are the theological convictions that must undergird it? How is it to be practised today? Who ought to carry out this ministry? And so on. May the Lord encourage us all as we consider this important topic\, for even if every one of us should be bound in chains\, “the word of God is not bound!” (2 Timothy 2:9).

SUMMARY:Roving Classroom: 3rd Quarter (Exegetical Theology)
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Old Testament Theology Part 1\nInstructor:  Joe Fleener\nHosted by:  Rolleston Baptist\, Rolleston. \nMany Christians are unfamiliar with the content of the Old Testament\, let alone it’s historical setting and theological purpose for the covenant people of God. In part one of what is planned to be a three-part course we will look carefully at the first 17 books of the English Old Testament canon. In doing so we will aim to gain a better grasp of their historical setting and God’s purpose in revealing Himself as He has in these books for His covenant people – both Old and New. History and Theology will come together as we bask in the glory of God’s timeless revelation of Himself to His people. \n(For those who would like to complete some advanced\, preparatory reading\, please read the associated chapters from Van Pelt\, Miles V. A Biblical-Theological Introduction to the Old Testament: The Gospel Promised. Crossway. 2017.) \nOur schedule for the day is as follows: \n\n9:00 – 10:30 => Session 1\n10:30 – 11:00 => Morning Tea\n11:00 – 12:30 => Session 2\n12:30 – 1:30 => Lunch\n1:30 – 3:00 => Session 3\n3:00 – 3:30 => Afternoon Tea\n3:30 – 5:00 => Session 4\n\nAs things stand\, we have a Men’s Breakfast scheduled for this same Saturday. We’d like to propose continuing with this plan and inviting any other men who may be planning to attend the Roving Classroom to join us for breakfast as well. \nBreakfast will be from 7:30am. \nBoth breakfast and the Roving Classroom will be held at our usual church venue – Rolleston Christian School\, 571 Springston Rolleston Rd\, Rolleston. \nPlease let us know by Friday\, 07 August: \n\nHow many from your church plan to attend the Roving Classroom?\nWho needs either rides from the airport\, accommodation or both?\nHow many plan to also attend the breakfast?

SUMMARY:School of Theology 2020
DESCRIPTION:The Lord willing\, Dr. James M Renihan will return for an eighth time\, when he will be teaching on the topic with which our School of Theology began in 2007: Baptist Symbolics: the history\, language and theology of the 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith. Historical comparisons will be made to the Westminster and Savoy Confessions\, while other Baptist confessions will also be considered as they relate to this document. The aim of the course is to gain an understanding of the 1689 Confession’s historical setting and its theological relevance to the present-day church. \nThis annual week of teaching and discussion is aimed at helping men who desire to be better equipped for service in their churches. It is a post-graduate level course which assumes familiarity with the Bible and Christian theology\, and it is an intensive week of study with up to 30 hours of teaching over the course of five days. \nWhile it is primarily intended for men who attend churches within the Fellowship of Reformed Baptist Churches in New Zealand\, others may attend at the discretion of our elders. Participants are expected to attend the entire School of Theology which begins with lunch on the Monday and concludes with dinner on the following Friday.

SUMMARY:Roving Classroom: 1st Quarter (Historical Theology)
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Baptist History Part 2\nInstructor:  Rob Harrod\nHosted by:  Grace Baptist Church\, Christchurch. \nThe second of two sessions exploring Baptist History. Having looked at the defining marks of a church from Scripture\, we are continuing to trace out how these have been pursued in the life of Baptist churches down through the centuries. In the course of this we will identify what have been some of the historic distinctives of faithful Baptist churches. In this session we will take up modern Baptist history after its beginnings in 17th century England and trace it down to the present day. Along the way we will note many of the challenges and issues faced by these churches as they developed from an English ‘sect’ into a ‘global movement’. This course will acquaint us with many faithful churches and believers who grappled with the meaning of Scripture\, stood for biblical truth\, planted churches\, endured great hardship and opposition\, and sought to co-labour with Christ in the extension of His kingdom in the world.

SUMMARY:Roving Classroom: 4th Quarter (Systematic Theology)
DESCRIPTION:Topic: Sola Fide – Firming our Grasp\nInstructor:  Ryan Vinten\nHosted by:  Trinity Reformed Baptist Church\, Hamilton. \nSola Fide is the article by which the church stands or falls. Therefore it is essential that Christians\, and especially Christian ministers\, have a firm grasp of this vital and beautiful doctrine. To further this we will survey the Bible’s teaching on the topic with help from history – considering such things as its nature\, the various threats to it and the\nstakes if those threats aren’t withstood. \nThe Roving Classroom is a yearly program involving four block-study sessions that are taught by various pastors within the fellowship (and on some occasions\, by invited guest speakers).The classroom is hosted at varied (and roving) geographical locations around New Zealand\, as each church offers to host a weekend. Each year the calendar will be ordered around the four traditional theological categories (Exegetical; Systematic; Historical; Practical Theology). Topics within these broader categories are both diverse and relevant\, allowing for a truly holistic ministerial training.
