Last Disputatio of the Class of 2009!

noreply@blogger.com (Daniel Foucachon) — Sat, 09 May 2009 06:58:00 +0000

Can you believe it? We just had our last Disputatio as a class at NSA?

God has been very good to us, allowing us to travel thus far. I am very grateful for such a wonderful class, and I hope we all keep in touch. To that affect, I plan to keep this blog going as a place where we as Alumni can come and keep getting NSA info, or see what’s going on in Moscow.

Here are the two videos I presented at Disputatio.

The first is a slideshow of some photos I through together of our 4 years here. It is only a tiny sampler of all the photos I have!
The second is a compilation of spliced videos from our 4 years. Again, only a sampler of what I have! I had to cut some GREAT stuff! (such as some of our declamations).

I uploaded a bunch of videos not shown here on a YouTube playlist called “Live in Moscow as an NSA student,” which you can find HERE

Enjoy!

Creation, Evolution, and Genesis

noreply@blogger.com (Daniel Foucachon) — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 23:47:00 +0000

Greetings class!

I wanted to encourage you to take, or at least audit, Dr. Wilson's Creation, Evolution, and Genesis elective! As Christians, we need to be equipped to interact with the secular arguments aimed at destroying the basis for Christ's authority: that He is Creator, and we are the Created.

We are blessed to have Dr. Wilson, who has not only learned all these issues in depth, but has much experience in actually debating the champions of Evolution.

So sign up for his class before it gets too full!

(remember, the class schedule has changed so that Dr. Wilson's elective doesn't conflict with other electives.)

This course surveys the watershed issues in the creation/evolution controversy. Students will learn important definitions and make key distinctions to avoid misunderstandings and ill-informed straw-man arguments. They will also gain a basic understanding of the following topics: creation according to scripture, science and its limitations, origins according to secular man, irreducible complexities, created kinds and the natural limits to biological change, the fossil record and the age of the earth. The students will be reminded how to properly wield this knowledge rhetorically with those who differ, believers and unbelievers alike, so that if it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone (Rom. 12:18).

Happy Birthday Luke!

noreply@blogger.com (Daniel Foucachon) — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 18:15:00 +0000

Today is Luke Nieuwsma's birthday! Happy Birthday Luke, and blessings on your very significant 22nd year! May the Lord richly bless you and give you wisdom, joy, peace, and faith as you go from being a bachelor to a head-of-household during this next year!

Here's a toast to Luke: May you always enjoy the good things of life, such as good beer and good wine!

Charity Bandanas

noreply@blogger.com (Daniel Foucachon) — Thu, 22 Nov 2007 01:42:00 +0000

The following is from Benjamin Nieuwsma. Please take a second to read!

We are raising money for the Community Action Partnership in Moscow . The charity works to reach out to poor people in our area in a number of ways. The partnership provides food for people unable to afford it, clothing and health related expenses. Often the elderly on fixed incomes are unable to afford their heating bill during the winter and this partnership helps with that as well. They also help pay for educational expenses.

Unlike many other charities, the Community Action Partnership works towards self-sufficiency as much as it can, so for many of the underprivileged families, they help by providing work for them.

I am the project manager of a team of about a dozen students who chose this charity to raise money for as class project and we have come up with a couple different incentives for giving money to the partnership:

Donate 1 Dollar

For anyone donating a dollar to help the underprivileged in our area, we will enter them into a drawing for one of three $50 gift certificates for the online sporting good stores:

www.buysnow.com

www.buywake.com

www.buyskate.com

Donate 4 Dollars

For anyone who donates $4 (essentially the price of a nice coffee), we will give them a free bandana. They are black with a golden U of I logo design on them.

This charity is tax deductible and upon request we can provide you with verification of your donation. Unfortunately, due to some supplier problems on the bandanas, we are running out of time for this project. We need to know about everyone who is willing to donate by next Monday, November 26.

So, if you would be willing to donate a few dollars, it would be a great blessing to the charity, and a huge help to me and my team.

Please send me an email. (BenjaminN@vandals.uidaho.edu) or feel free to call (208-310-1841)

Thanks!

Benjamin Nieuwsma

One thing Ben mentioned to me is that you don't have to pay him right away. So if you are away on break, just send him an email letting him know that you will be getting him the money whenever you get back.

Thanks!

Happy Birthday Daniel!

O Socii, today is a great and honourable day. It is a day in which we can put to use our right as citizens of the Unitest States of America to elect our leaders. In days past leaders were often chosen through strength of arms. Men proved their courage on the battle field, fighting for their king, that they might live peaceful lives under their king. We have no bloody battle field on which to pour our blood and prove our valor, but we do have the Moscow Fair Grounds, and today, until 8 p.m. May it not be said of the students of New Saint Andrews college that they did not bother to go out and vote. Furthermore, this is going to be a close vote - 50 could turn the tide of the election. You may feel like it's not your place to vote in Moscow, but it does affect you. It affects NSA, it affects the families you're boarding with, and it affects our churches. If you've lived here for more than 30 days, you can vote! Please vote!

Please vote for Krauss and Carscallen for the 4 year seat (do not vote for a 3rd person) and Steed for the two year seat.

To the Polls!

Homo proponit, sed Deus disponit. O Socii, Proponite!
