Subject: RE: IBMTE Handbook Feedback Due July 5Attachments: Comments on the IBMTE Handbook.pdf

Dear Teresa, dear ASRS member: Happy new week from Europe. Normally I do not use the "reply to all" function, but since several others have done so, let me also contribute. Friedensau Adventist University suggests that any procedure of endorsement or other types of certification should be done in a different way, which builds on (1) trust in faculty, (2) trust in institutional boards, and (3) actual ministry (teaching, research, and ministry to the church and society). This relates to three observations found in the attachment, which was sent to the IBMTE Handbook Revision Committee (but evidently did not make an impact on the final version). We deplore that the suggested handbook sows seeds of distrust, and we desire work for a church in which we can cooperate without casting doubt on each other's true Adventist Christianity. Our main proposal is, therefore, that endorsement should be similar to the periodical renewal of pastoral credentials; it should, therefore, be (1) automatic unless the board sees significant reasons to review it (= trust in faculty), (2) done in a manner determined by institutional boards (=trust in institutional boards), and (3) based on a report on activities and publications (= teaching, research, and ministry to the church and society / actual ministry). In hope, Stefan ---

Subject: RE: IBMTE Handbook Feedback Due July 5

I want to preface my response with an affirmation for any and all initiatives that promote excellence and quality in our pursuit of teaching and learning. Most of the IBMTE Handbook does that with the exception of the endorsement chapter. The endorsement chapter reflects a trend that can be tracked by actions over the last 37 years in the model constitution & bylaws embedded in the GC Working Policy. The gradual process since 1980 of marking sections in bold face type that are mandatory rather than recommendations reflects a move away from relational trust and cooperation to a legislated model that assumes control as an acceptable model for compliance and unity.  The endorsement chapter reflects a model consistent with the trend that marks changes in our GC recommended Constitutions for Unions, conferences, etc. Every move that we make under control mandate is a confession that the relational trust that held our church together for the past century is no longer reliable. It is common in the context of leadership to move to control behavior when other options appear ineffective.  For me personally, I found the prospect of being subject to the endorsement process demeaning and an insult to 40 years of faithful service to my church as pastor, departmental leader, administrator and now Seminary professor. I vowed to honor the standards of my church when I was baptized. I vowed to honor the standards that are expected of an ordained minister at the time of my affirmation to gospel ministry. If I submit to this new request for my commitment I feel I am dishonoring a history of commitment that spans most of my adult life.  It concerns me that the possibility of behavior tagged as “Kingly Power” that our forefathers labored against in restructuring the church in 1901 is creeping back into our midst. Ellen White in AA p12 writes that all means of coercion were banished from God’s kingdom and in my humble opinion the endorsement process is marked by corporate coercion.  If I can’t be trusted based upon my commitment at the time of baptism and ordination then it’s too late at my age to prove my trustworthiness to those I have tried faithfully to serve for so many years. I fear that trust is not what is soughtbut compliance and by means of fear of coercive reaction.

Subject: RE: IBMTE Handbook Feedback Due July 5

Heartfelt thanks to Professor Patterson for perfectly articulating the most painful feature of the IBMTE process. I was baptized at the age of 9 in 1957. I new exactly what I was doing and would do it over again today. After reading the IBMTE manual, I actually got out my baptismal certificate to see if I could still affirm what I affirmed that day and was happy to discover that I can with all the benefit of 50 years of sustained theological study. Enjoying, as I do, the luxury of unimportance, I cannot invoke a record of distinguished service comparable to Professor Patterson's. But if thirteen years as a pastor and fourteen more as a theology teacher have not established my denominational legitimacy then it is plain that the legitimacy in question is approval by the kingly powers. Bless you brother Patterson. Daryll Ward

I want to preface my response with an affirmation for any and all initiatives that promote excellence and quality in our pursuit of teaching and learning. Most of the IBMTE Handbook does that with the exception of the endorsement chapter. The endorsement chapter reflects a trend that can be tracked by actions over the last 37 years in the model constitution & bylaws embedded in the GC Working Policy. The gradual process since 1980 of marking sections in bold face type that are mandatory rather than recommendations reflects a move away from relational trust and cooperation to a legislated model that assumes control as an acceptable model for compliance and unity.  The endorsement chapter reflects a model consistent with the trend that marks changes in our GC recommended Constitutions for Unions, conferences, etc. Every move that we make under control mandate is a confession that the relational trust that held our church together for the past century is no longer reliable. It is common in the context of leadership to move to control behavior when other options appear ineffective.  For me personally, I found the prospect of being subject to the endorsement process demeaning and an insult to 40 years of faithful service to my church as pastor, departmental leader, administrator and now Seminary professor. I vowed to honor the standards of my church when I was baptized. I vowed to honor the standards that are expected of an ordained minister at the time of my affirmation to gospel ministry. If I submit to this new request for my commitment I feel I am dishonoring a history of commitment that spans most of my adult life.  It concerns me that the possibility of behavior tagged as “Kingly Power” that our forefathers labored against in restructuring the church in 1901 is creeping back into our midst. Ellen White in AA p12 writes that all means of coercion were banished from God’s kingdom and in my humble opinion the endorsement process is marked by corporate coercion.  If I can’t be trusted based upon my commitment at the time of baptism and ordination then it’s too late at my age to prove my trustworthiness to those I have tried faithfully to serve for so many years. I fear that trust is not what is soughtbut compliance and by means of fear of coercive reaction.
