‘A Critical Appraisal of Darryl G. Hart’s
Deconstruction of Evangelicalism.’

KEY WORDS
|| Evangelicalism || Evangelical || Neo Evangelicalism ||
|| Post Evangelicalism || Coherence || Ecclesiology || |18th Century ||
|| Protestantism || Modernism || Fundamentalism || Revivalism ||

ABSTRACT
How one interprets the evangelical movement varies widely. For many, Evangelicalism has come to denote a wacky and sometimes brazen, intellectually inferior strain of Christianity. For others the term ‘evangelical’ is laden with negative connotations suggesting ill-informed fervour and strident belief. However, for self-professing evangelicals, and those sympathetic to the movement, Evangelicalism represents an authentic and pure expression of time-honoured biblical truth, grounded in the Word of God and genuine religious experience.

But what does the term ‘evangelical’ mean? How many people would be comfortable defining the movement or even tracking its development through the ages? According to Hart and other sceptics of Evangelicalism, difficulty defining the movement’s core beliefs and precise nature is unsurprising, for it is essentially a theological mirage, an amorphous and ill-conceived relic of historic orthodox Protestantism. This paper will examine attempts to deconstruct the evangelical project and assess whether the movement should be abandoned due to theological shallowness or cherished as a vibrant and adaptive vehicle for conveying and giving expression to timeless Christian dogma. It is argued that the answer is more complex than initially meets the eye and lies somewhere in between these two positions.

David C. Lewis,
‘What is God Saying Through “Natural Disasters”?’

KEY WORDS
|| Earthquake || Natural Disasters || Amos ||
|| Armenia || Tsunami || Prophecy || Job ||

ABSTRACT
Many Christians struggle with the question of why God allows ‘natural disasters’ such as earthquakes. This paper presents a perspective on this question with particular reference to the Armenian earthquake of 1988, noting how there were parallels between the situation in Armenia and that of Israel at the time of the prophet Amos. In both cases, the earthquake might be interpreted not only as a judgement from God but also as a means by which some people are brought to recognise their need of God. Christian researchers are encouraged to seek God in discerning insights into why disasters occur at specific times or places, and the spiritual impact that they have on local residents.
