- Murals "Jazz" Up Mississippi Gym (Page 4) mi§m*SMmmmmmMmmmmmmmk ^^^^^^^^^i^ Ma Vol. 68, No. 10; April 8,1993= Salt and Light Discusses Women and the Church by Jenell Williams Staff Writer As a close to Women's History Month, Salt and Light sponsored a forum on the issue of women's role in ministry. The forum featured Profes- sorof Biblical Studies Michael Holmes and Pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church John Piper taking opposing views on the subject. Holmes and Piper each explained their view, followed by questions from the audience. The forum, titled "Women's Roles in the Church", was held on April 1. The event was well-attended. Held in the AC lounge, Economic Professor Tim Essenberg estimates that 200 people were there. Scheduled for one hour and fifteen minutes, the discussion lasted nearly two hours. Issues covered included women as pastors, gender roles in the family, women holding authority over men, and perspectives on feminism. Piper upheld the position that women can hold any position except those involving direct authority over men, while Holmes argued that Scripture does not restrict women's activities. Both Piper and Photo/ Shane DeHaan Or. Mike Holmes, a professor in Bethel's Biblical and Theological Studies Department, debated with Dr. Piper, a local pastor, over the role of women in the church, at the Salt and Light Forum on April 1. Holmes explained the scriptural basis for their views. In his opening statement, Piper explained why he chose to discuss the issue in this forum. In a list of seven important issues, he discussed current familial, social, and urban problems. He sees scriptural gender roles as an important part of solutions to these problems. When asked after the discussion, Holmes said that he hoped the discusr sion was helpful. In particular, he said that he hoped the debate "was helpful in affirming and supporting my female colleagues as they faithfully carry out God's call in their lives." Responses to the crowded event were generally positive. Junior Sarah Gowdy said that she came to the crowded lounge and thought, "Where am I going to sit?" Sophomore Dave Horsager said, "It was a success. It should have been held in the gym." Senior Jill Nelson, representative of the Bethel women's group, brought up the idea for a political forum during Women's History Month to the Salt and Light group. Salt and Light is a group advised by Economic Professor Tim Essenberg and events are organized by Senior Shio Nemoto and Senior John Brownlee. Nemoto describes Salt and Light as a "forum where we increase aw areness. People should feel free to come and discuss/wrestle with issues." Essenberg agreed, saying, "We need more of these forums on many different issues." Salt and Light plans to continue hosting forums in the future. 200 Bethelites Break For Missions by Jenell Williams Staff writer Nearly 200 Bethel students were involved in missions projects this Spring Break, the week of March 22 to 29, 1993. They traveled to several different locations to do a variety of projects. Bethel's branch of Habitat for Humanity sent 130 students around the United States to assist the needy in building their own homes. Students were involved in projects in Lynchburg, Virginia; Tampa, Florida; Sumter, South Carolina; Jackson, Mississippi, and Clarksdale, Mississippi. Habitat for Humanity Treasurer Joe Kimbell describes the projects as a "tangible ministry: you see where your work is going and who is benefiting from it." Students work with people who are without housing to build them a house. Assistant Campus Pastor Steve Young, Associate professor of Theatre Arts Dale Rott, and eight students traveled to Belize, Central America. The team worked with local pastors and congregations, sharing ideas about creative worship and ministry. This involved sharing in schools, doing street ministry, and participating in worship services. According to Young, the group hoped to "leam about the Christian church in Belize, and help the church develop creative worship through drama." This is the first year that Bethel students have traveled to Belize during Spring Break. Chair of the Department of Modem World Languages Trish Jessen, and Campus Pastor Keith Anderson co-led a group of 20 students to Tijuana, Mexico. Students worked to build and repair houses, as well as to minister with evangelism to children in the Florido area of Tijuana. Jessen created and directed the evangelism outreach portion of the project. Students did similar work in Tijuana last Spring Break. Anderson said that during the week before Spring Break, one of the students from the 1992 Tijuana group presented him with an envelope full of money to be used for building supplies. Anderson says that "even though they couldn't go again, they wanted to encourage and support this year's group." Associate Campus Pastor Sherry Bunge led nine students to San Diego, California. They observed and assisted in a variety of ministries and organizations in San Diego. There are many creative ministries that are working for change in the inner-city of San Diego, and these Bethel students were able to both observe and participate in them. Eleven students traveled to Mendenhall, Mississippi, to work with Mendenhall Ministries. Mendenhall Ministries is designed to work for change in the rural community, by the way of a recreation center, health clinic. Christian school, thrift store, and cooperative farming. Bethel's Spring Break missions program has been reorganized and expanded in recent years, resulting in a wide variety of projects.
