The New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary Foundation Board continues to play a key role in funding important campus improvements. During their Saturday, March 5 meeting, Board members voted to give $95,000 toward a project to replace the skylight in the Hardin Student Center. This project uses interest earned from the Board's investments over the past year. Dr. Harvey applauded the Board's commitment to the project. He also thanked the individual Foundation members who funded endowed chairs, endowed scholarships and new research and ministry centers at NOBTS during the past year. “The Foundation Board exists to support the Seminary by growing the endowment and assisting the Seminary in projects to insure the fulfillment of the Seminary's mission,” Dr. Harvey told the Board members. “You are making a significant difference in what we are doing at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.” During the meeting, Foundation members were given the opportunity to tour the new recreation areas and playgrounds which were funded through Foundation Board giving. Harvey thanked them for the $480,000 given last year to build the new play areas. Seminary families are already enjoying use of the play areas, including Sunshine Park and playgrounds at the Preschool Center, the Manor Apartments and the Farnsworth Apartments. The largest new recreation area, Sunshine Park, has transformed the quadiangle behind Willingham Manor. Sunshine Park includes play equipment, basketball courts, a soccer field, a sand volleyball court, exercise stations, covered pavilions and a walking track. Board members also toured the new Courtyard Apartments for single students. The Foundation Board weekend began Friday, March 4 with a dinner for current and prospective Board members at the Plimsoll Club in downtown New Orleans. President Dr. Chuck Kelley shared the vision and purpose of the Seminary and encouraged others to join in the work of NOBTS. During the evening, Foundation Member Dr. Keith Manuel had the opportunity to lead one of the Plimsoll Club waitresses to faith in Christ.

Greek at NOBTS, said it is merely amatter of immersion.

“The key to making this languageaccomplishment possible in one summeris immersion pedagogy, just likemissionaries learn a language,” Stevenssaid. “The task looks impossible, but infact, it is entirely feasible.”

While SBLI allows students to earnall their Greek credit in a singlesummer, it is also open to students whocan only take a selection of the classes.

The program is easily adjustable to theindividual student’s needs.

The first exegesis class, covering 1Corinthians 1-8, will be taught on-campus by Dr. Craig Price, NOBTSdean of students. For the last half of 1Corinthians, students have the optionof remaining in New Orleans andstudying under Price or traveling toGreece with Stevens. Besidescompleting the study of 1 Corinthians,students will spend considerable timetouring biblical sites in Greece.

“Emphasis will be placed on visitingarcheological and historical museums,combing through ancient biblical sites, aswell as encountering cultural experiencesin Greek life,” Stevens said.

The Institute only lasts eight weeks,but the benefits to students will continuelong past the end of summer. A grasp ofthe biblical language will greatly enhancethe ministry of those who participate.

The Greer-Heard PointCounter-Point Lecture

Southern Baptists are passionate about the church. TheBaptist Center for Theology and Ministry (BCTM) tapped intothat passion Feb. 10-12 as pastors, professors anddenominational leaders gathered at New Orleans BaptistTheological Seminary to discuss what it means to be the church.

During “The Mission of Today’s Church” conference, 22Baptist leaders spoke on issues ranging from cooperation

The Baptist Center’s “Missionof Today’s Church”

The Manual Family Lectureon Archaeology and the Bible

Archaeology can be a powerful tool in establishing the historicityof the Bible. But rarely do archaeologists find as much supportfor the biblical text as they did at Megiddo, Gezer and Hazor.The facts in the ground mirror the text in 1 Kings 9:15-16.

The evidence brought world-renowned archaeologist WilliamDever to New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary Feb. 3. Heshared his research during the Manuel Family Lecture onArchaeology and the Bible – a lecture designed to present currentarchaeological research pointing to the reliability of Scripture.

Dever said evidence found among the ancient ruins at Megiddo,Gezer and Hazor confirms the biblical accounts of King Solomon.His findings counter the claims of revisionists who wish to discreditthe Bible and deny the existence of ancient Israel.

Articles about these events are available at www.nobts.edu/Publications.

and congregational polity to bivocational ministry and theLord’s Supper.

Dr. Stan Norman, Associate Professor of Theology at NOBTS,created BCTM as a vehicle to bring the theology taught inBaptist seminaries and colleges to the local church. The centerseeks to recover and communicate the Baptist distinctives thatare on the decline in various churches today.

The wide range of presenters included NOBTS PresidentChuck Kelley; Norman; David Dockery, President of UnionUniversity; Ed Stetzer, from the North American Mission Board;and other key Baptist leaders.

Planning is underway for next year’s BCTM conference. Thedate and topic will be announced on the Baptist Center’s website(www.baptistcenter.com) later this year.

“Enormous forces in our culture are determined to denythat Jesus was raised from the dead,” N.T. Wright, an Anglicanevangelical scholar, said. “Over and over again, they usearguments that can be shown to be invalid and proposealternative scenarios which can be shown to be impossible.”

Wright and John Dominic Crossan, a member of the JesusSeminar, voiced divergent views of the resurrection during theinaugural Greer-Heard Point-Counterpoint Forum at NewOrleans Baptist Theological Seminary March 11. Wright, bishop of Durham, England, defended the literal,bodily resurrection of Jesus as the only tenable view, whileCrossan, a professor emeritus at DePaul University, set forth ametaphorical interpretation of the resurrection.

NOBTS President Chuck Kelley described the event, attendedby over 920 people, as “a great opportunity for our seminaryfamily and many other guests to see how we can dialogue withthe world and get the Gospel out there without sacrificing our

convictions ... a greatmodel for how to take astrongly held belief like wehave in the resurrectionand then share and defend

that belief with those who don’t accept it.”The forum continued on March 12 with a number of noted

scholars responding to Crossan and Wright, including presentationsby Gary Habermas; Craig Evans; R. Douglas Geivett; Ted Peters;William Lane Craig; and NOBTS' Chuck Quarles.

Established through a gift from Bill and Carolyn Heard, theforum was designed to help students and ministers learn tothink critically and to be prepared to engage secular society.

The 2006 Greer-Heard Point-Counterpoint Forum,“Debating Design,” is scheduled for Feb. 10-11, 2006. WilliamDembski, one of intelligent design’s leading thinkers, andMichael Ruse, an evolutionist and Professor at Florida StateUniversity, will discuss whether the universe is the product ofintelligent design or evolution. Dembski was recently namedas Director of the Center for Science and Theology at theSouthern Baptist Theological Seminary.

New Orleans Seminary launched twonew construction projects in January. Thenew initiatives, which includes student andstaff apartments, come in response to theSeminary’s continued enrollment boom.

“These are the last of our really urgentbuilding projects,” said President ChuckKelley. “At the end of this project, morethan half of our housing will be less than5-years-old and more than half of our

housing will be built termite resistant.”Rising student enrollment and the sale

of the Seminary’s off-campus apartmentsare both factors driving the urgency ofthe two projects. The seminary now hasmore on campus students than it had totalstudents just nine years ago.

The largest part of the construction willbe new two-bedroom apartments forstudents. The 48 new apartments onProvidence Place will be made up of fiveseparate, three-story buildings (picturedbelow). A new staff village includes threethree-bedroom townhouses for larger stafffamilies and eight two-bedroom staffapartments. Both projects are scheduledfor completion by January 2006.

The purpose of this document is to explain why New Orleans BaptistTheological Seminary has reservations about the legal risks of financialliability and the possible effects on Baptist polity that could come if theattached proposal to make the SBC the sole member of the legalcorporation of the seminary is adopted. The proposal is a request to makethe Southern Baptist Convention the sole member of the legal corporationof the Seminary in order to clarify and strengthen the ties binding theSeminary and the Convention. Being in perfect agreement with this goal,the Trustees engaged in a process of careful research and study to evaluatethe proposal. That process included the following steps.

The Model Act has been passed as law in nine states.Ten of the entities of the Southern Baptist Convention are in the ninestates which passed the Model Act. Louisiana is not one of thosestates, and therefore New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary isunder a different legal code than the other SBC entities.

Convention. Convention. Convention. Convention. Out of concern for increasing the exposure of the SBCto liability lawsuits, the Trustees of NOBTS feel compelled to warnthe convention messengers about three possible negativeconsequences of utilizing the sole membership strategy in Louisiana.

First, this strategy could potentially put the Cooperative Programat risk. The motion passed by the SBC in June 2004 asked the NOBTSBoard of Trustees to make the SBC the sole member of the seminary’scorporation in a way that assured the messengers historic rights andgave the Convention legal immunity. Multiple Louisiana attorneyshave told us it is impossible for this proposal to fulfill both requests.The general counsel for the seminary has spent a lifetime practicinglaw in the state of Louisiana and specializes in the church andLouisiana law. We consulted numerous other Louisiana lawyers,Baptist and non-Baptist, including hiring as a consultant a man widelyrecognized as one of the top corporate lawyers in the state. Wenoticed even the Louisiana Baptist Convention did not use solemembership to strengthen the ties to its state entities. The

The New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary TrusteeBoard approved a document listing and explaining theirreservations about sole membership.

In the Fall of 2004, trustees complied with the request ofSouthern Baptist Convention messengers by approving acharter amendment naming the SBC sole member of theSeminary’s corporation. Messengers will have the opportunityto vote on the NOBTS charter amendment at the 2005 SBCAnnual Meeting in Nashville. In a separate motion, trusteesdirected their executive committee to develop a documentexplaining their reluctance to adopt sole membership.

According to Rev. Tommy French, Trustee Chairman whenthe reservations were stated, NOBTS officials will be allowedto communicate the reservations at the Convention.

overwhelming consensus of all the opinions we sought is that makingthe SBC the sole member of our Louisiana corporation will dramaticallyincrease the risk of financial liability for the SBC in the state of Louisiana.Messengers must decide if the possibility of putting the CooperativeProgram at risk in a lawsuit is worth adopting this measure withoutconsidering any alternative way to accomplish the same goals.

Second, this change could have irreversible legal consequences. Ifsole membership is implemented at this point in time, and a laterConvention were to decide to change from sole membership to anothercorporate model, the Louisiana attorneys we have consulted tell us itwould probably not change the liability of the SBC in the state ofLouisiana. Once this form of control is implemented, it will always berecalled as an indication of the true nature of the relationship betweenthe seminary and the Convention. If this change does prove to be aproblem, there will be no going back.

Third, the specific process that has been initiated by the ExecutiveCommittee could increase the likelihood of legal liability for the SBC.In a letter the general counsel for the Executive Committee informedus that entity consideration of charter changes should precede anyrequest for a change in charter by the Convention. He went on to saythat if the Convention initiated a proposal asking an entity to changea charter it could “strain if not tear the corporate veil” of protectionfrom liability, perhaps weakening the defense strategy of theConvention against lawsuits by making it appear the Convention ismanaging the subsidiary entity. Last April New Orleans BaptistTheological Seminary announced it would be bringing a proposal onchanging its charter to the 2005 meeting of the SBC. However, theExecutive Committee chose to ask the Convention to request a charterchange before the seminary initiated a proposal. If the written advicewe received is correct, the danger is even more likely for liabilityproblems coming from approval of this proposal.

Minor changes in thepresent charter would complete the protection of SBC rights withoutincreasing SBC liability in lawsuits involving the seminary. Otheralternatives could be explored, but the staff of the SBC ExecutiveCommittee asked us not to prepare any alternative to sole membershipand has refused to consider any option but sole membership. Webelieve that a process that does not at least consider more than oneoption is a flawed process.

Solemembership in the eyes of many professional Baptist historians andtheologians, many SBC leaders, and many SBC church members is astep toward the centralization of control and authority in SouthernBaptist life. It is not the size of the step, but rather the direction ofthe step that causes concern. The centralization of control andauthority will ultimately lead to a diminished voice for the messengersof the Convention. A diminished voice of the messengers leads to adiminished voice of the local church. The manner in which the staffand officers of the Executive Committee handled the discussion withthe Seminary has reinforced, not lessened our concerns for the futureimplications of this change.

Historic Baptist polity emphasizes the decisive influence of the

SBC over its entities through duly elected Trustees as opposed todirect control of the entities by the Convention itself. The Conventioncontrols entity charters, ministry guidelines, and Trustee selection,while the Trustees exercise operational control and governance ofthe entity. The Conservative Resurgence used this historic polity toinstitute the most significant course correction in the history of thechurch in America. Our historic polity at the national level has provenitself in normal operations and in times of reformation.

6.6.6.6.6. TTTTThis proposal ignores a source of the problem of entities inhis proposal ignores a source of the problem of entities inhis proposal ignores a source of the problem of entities inhis proposal ignores a source of the problem of entities inhis proposal ignores a source of the problem of entities instate conventions which made abrupt changes in theirstate conventions which made abrupt changes in theirstate conventions which made abrupt changes in theirstate conventions which made abrupt changes in theirstate conventions which made abrupt changes in theirrelationships with state Baptist bodiesrelationships with state Baptist bodiesrelationships with state Baptist bodiesrelationships with state Baptist bodiesrelationships with state Baptist bodies..... The question no one hasasked or discussed is why state entities that unilaterally changed theirrelationship with their state convention were able to explore such amove. If an SBC entity head dared to suggest this kind of change itwould result in immediate dismissal or severe reprimand. Why? Everyentity board is filled with Trustees who have a great allegiance to theSouthern Baptist Convention, and every SBC entity needs CooperativeProgram funds, the goodwill of Southern Baptists, or both to be able tosurvive. To our knowledge in those cases where a state entity hasabandoned its historic relationship with a state convention, the entityhead was playing a major role in the selection of his own Trustees, andin nearly all cases, the Cooperative Program did not provide a significantportion of the entity budget. What makes historic Baptist polity work iscareful Trustee selection for all entities and continuous development offinancial support and goodwill for entities.

As requested by the messengers of the 2004 Southern BaptistConvention, the Trustees of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminaryrecommend the charter change proposal to the messengers of the2005 Convention. We do so, however, with the reservations expressedabove. These reservations are not born out of a desire for greaterindependence or an attempt to change in any way the relationship wehave always had with the Convention. These reservations reflect ourconcern for the legal and fiscal health of the Convention and for theconservation of historic Baptist polity. Our passionate commitment tothe Southern Baptist Convention gives us an obligation to share theseconcerns.

From the beginning of this discussion with the Executive Committeestaff, however, we have always insisted that the messengers have thefinal say. Should the messengers, knowing these reservations chooseto approve the proposed amendment, it will be implemented shortlyafter the close of the Convention. Should the messengers reject thisproposal, an alternative approach to accomplish the same objectivewill be crafted in light of the peculiarities of Louisiana law and historicBaptist polity and presented to the next meeting of the SouthernBaptist Convention. In either case the New Orleans BaptistTheological Seminary affirms without reservation the bedrock principleof Baptist polity that in any Southern Baptist discussion, the Conventionmessengers have the deciding voice.

Shortly after his birth a hospital nurse recognized the potentialof Chuck Quarles, who now serves as Associate Professor ofNew Testament and Greek at NOBTS. “When I look at the waythat boy moves his mouth I do believe God either plans for himto be a lawyer or a Baptist preacher,” she told his mother.

The nurse was right. By age 19, Quarles was pastoringConcord Baptist Church in Bruce, Miss. But God also hadplans for Quarles to be a missionary and a seminary professor.During the midst of his wonderful experience at Concord, Godbegan pushing him toward missions.

A mission trip to Kenya was pivotal in Quarles’ call tomissions and teaching. He preached at a crusade and witnessedin the streets. He saw thousands respond to the gospel, butfound few churches available to disciple the new believers.

“I sensed a call to train Christian leaders in these missionarysettings and from that point on it became my focus,” he said.“After that first trip to Kenya, I was never quite the same.”

The text of 2 Timothy 2:2 became foundational to his call:“The things which you have heard from me among manywitnesses, these things commit to faithful men who shall beable to teach others also.”

“I began to sense that I could have the greatest impact in Kingdomwork by investing my life and ministry in the lives and ministries ofmany others who will lead churches around the world,” Quarles

said. “I could multiply my ministrythrough those who are trained.” After he completed his master’sand doctoral degrees, Quarles andhis wife, Julie, began theappointment process to serve asmissionaries with the InternationalMission Board. Delay after delayextended their wait for 10 and a halfyears. Finally, they were appointedto serve in Romania, in the field oftheological education.

Their first two years onthe f ie ld were f i l led withblessings. They saw God work

in miraculous ways. Quarles was not only training hundredsof pastors and missionaries at Bucharest Baptist TheologicalSeminary and the University of Bucharest, he was alsohelping plant a new church.

During their third year, things began to dramatically change.The struggles began with neighborhood children throwing bricksand beer bottles at their children. Then, someone begansabotaging the family car.

About the same time, the entire family began to experiencenausea, headaches and fatigue. A faulty heater in their home hadexposed the family to high levels of carbon monoxide for months.

After a long recovery from carbon monoxide poisoning, theirson Josh, only four at the time, experienced an act of unspeakable

cruelty. While Julie and Josh were shopping in the market, aman approached and asked for money. When Julie said no, theangry man burned Josh’s face with a cigarette and laughed.

Later, Julie developed an intense, debilitating pain in herback. The Quarles family returned to the United States whereJulie received emergency surgery.

God began healing Julie and before long the family was able toreturn to Romania. But the return was a short one.

The family’s trials took a toll on their daughter, Hannah. Shedeveloped a panic disorder and suffered severe attacks everytime she left their home. The Quarles family had to return to theUnited States - this time they would not be going back to Romania.

“It was confusing. We didn’t know exactly what God had inmind, but we knew that we could trust Him. God has never letus down,” Quarles said. “Even though those things wereconfusing, and at times discouraging, we knew that God hadn’ttaken us that far to let us down.”

It was in the midst of this difficult time that New OrleansSeminary offered Quarles a teaching position. In 2002, Quarlesaccepted appointment to the faculty. Teaching at NOBTS offershim the opportunity to continue his ministry of multiplication.

“In God’s gracious providence, I’m now teaching on the facultyof one of the largest seminaries in the world,” he said. “I amimpacting the lives not only of a few hundred students, but thousandsof students who will go and serve where my family cannot go.”

In Quarles’ office you’ll find a marble plaque and a well-usedGreek New Testament that belonged to his grandfather, ChesterL. Quarles. His grandfather, for whom the chair of urbanmissions at NOBTS is named, was also a pastor. The plaquereads “Preach the Word.”

Quarles continues to preach and teach the Word. By passingon his love for the New Testament and Greek to his students,he is remaining faithful to his call by raising up a new generationto take the gospel to the ends of the earth.
