CHICAGO, IL (April 16, 2009) \u2013 James Bruckner, professor of Old Testament at North Park Theological Seminary<\/a>, has received a $12,000 grant to fund his research project,
\n\u201cHuman Health and Ancient Narrative: The Old Testament as a Shaping Resource for Health Care Vocations.\u201d
\n
\nThe Association of Theological Schools (ATS) in the United States and Canada awarded the Lilly Theological Scholars Grant to Bruckner. He plans to publish a book based on his findings.<\/p>\n

Bruckner says that misconceptions about the relationship of body and soul, and their relationship to God, inhibit holistic healing in the individual and society. He adds that biblical practices such as lament and remembering God\u2019s deliverance of his people can lead to that healing.<\/p>\n

Chicago Tribune<\/em> Takes Note of Resurrection Covenant\u2019s Name<\/strong><\/p>\n

CHICAGO, IL – Pastor Aaron Johnson and Resurrection Covenant Church<\/a> were included as part of an article in the Sunday Chicago Tribune<\/em> that focuses on pastors who use the Gospel of Mark as their Easter text and its relevance for uncertain times.<\/p>\n

“We don’t have a visual, accountable sighting of Jesus in the text we’re given for Sunday,\u201d the newspaper quotes Johnson as saying. \u201cSo often, we celebrate Easter on Sunday, and we move on with our lives. The Gospel of Mark shows that’s not all there is to Easter.”<\/p>\n

The reporter also interviewed ministers whose churches had \u201cResurrection\u201d in their names. Click here<\/a> to read the Tribune<\/em> article.<\/p>\n
