Once again, a record number of freshmen and transfer students, 718 in all, joined Cedarville's campus on the Getting Started Weekend. Freshman Chris Maklin said, "The small group idea is ingenious. I still am good friends with many from my small group. I loved it because it gave me the opportunity just to walk up to people and say "hi"knowing that they will be looking for someone to do the same too." Freshman Holly Ritzel agreed. "I think the small groups during Getting Started Weekend are a great idea, because they allow you to meet many people right away. One of my closest friends at Cedarville wasoneofthe first people that I met from my small group." The weekend progressed with the usual Friday night Early Arrival Party and small group activities on Saturday night. Transfers experienced asomewhatdifferent program going to the Opera House, Young's, Beans'n'Cream, and then a faculty member'shome. Transfer Rebekah Kozlowski said, "The activities really helped me get acquainted with life here at Cedarville.One thing that stood out to me was the en2,cAecca'order thusiasm shown by everyone.'' According toDick Walker. parentsusually appreciateand are most impressed by the helpful students who assist them in unloading and moving.

"The girls had a good time; they got to play a lot of offense and try new things," Head Coach KathyFreesesaid. This year's team was young after having two profitable recruiting years in arow which has puttheteam inthe bestpositionithasbeenin two years,according to Freese. The women'sscrimmage at Moonlight Madness was followed by the men's team. They were introduced to the crowd in traditional fashion with spotlights and pep band accompaniment. Reep said, "Theguys werein bettercondition at this point than they have been other years." The scrimmage was fast-paced and became an avenueforthe players to try out offensive StWelYelmrck moves and run theball as much as possible.

Dr.Lawrence Zavodney introduced the canoe race in 1994 as a problem-solving task for the freshmen. "I chose a canoe race because Cedarville College has a lake that cannotbeusedforanything except scenery, growing algae, and keepingfish... Student teams that do not follow good engineering design will experience failure. Failure for a canoe design means getting wet.Therefore, this event is both an educationalexperience for the students and entertainment for the spectators when someone sinks," Zavodney said. In recent years, a non-engineering division has since been added to the competition. Like the engineers, these students are provided with only cardboard and tape to build their lake-faring vessels.

As the 10-year tradition of Open House atthe'Ville continueson, the competitionforsomething new and creative is sometimes fierce. It can even be a losing battle when hall or units duplicate each other unknowingly, such as The Lion, the Witch,and the Wardrobefoundin Willettsand in McKinney this year. Butcompetitionwasnot an issuefor McChesneyas first place winners in the men's hall division of Open House. They never set out to win. Senior TomWright,theRA,said, "I enjoyed the fact that everyone came together andhadareallygoodtime. Open House really unified us. We had such a fun time getting to know eachotherbetterinacrazy way." Notonly wasOpen House a fun experience, but it was also an economical one. Wright admittedthattheyonlyspent $8and twohoursofdecorating time.

Open House'98fell underthedirectionofStudent Services for the first time, instead oftheCampus Activities Office. Asaresult, StudentServiceschose the RD'softhe dormsto serve as judges instead of Cedarville staff or other friendsofthecollege.RD's from the men's dorms judged for the women's dorms,and vice versa. Perhaps the most unique part about Open House '98 was the weather. With 60 degree weather during the first week of December, the dorms packed in more visitors than usual, it seems. According to Kelly Marsh of Student Services,manyfriends of the college and their children attended Open House because of the warm weather.

FALL BIt &stair shares his thoughtr on,the Christian,life with/the CedArville Collegefamily during the Fait Bible conference. 34 CHAPEL erence In the courseofeightsermons,AlistairBegg setthe tone for the 1998-99 school year,encouraging students to rest in God's care while striving to know Him better. Begg opened the Fall Bible Conference with comments from a collection of personal thoughts he had recorded in the flyleaf's of his Bible. During the morning sessions of the conference, Begg delivered messages covering the theme"My Times Are in YourHands."Ascomforting asthe morning sermons were, the evening services were an exhortation for students to take action. Begg spent three nights encouraging students to say to themselves,"I want to know Christ." Begg hoped students would take different thoughts with them from the conference."Obviously in the morning we would just learn to trust God for everything. There is no issue too large for God," Begg said. In the evening, however,he wanted people to learn that growing closer to Christ is a process rather than a goal. He said, "It is the whole notion that we want to see knowing Christ as something that is not static but progressive." At the annual convocation service,Begg addressed the issue of particularity in the Christian. Although he encouraged theembracing ofsome areas of tolerance, Begg believes that particularity is inescapable in the Christian life. "If you don't want to be thought of as narrow, I don't know where you'll go. We are inevitably narrow. It is the scandal of particularity." Begg closed his time at Cedarville with a message on Psalm 31:15. He said,"We're not tossed about on the ocean of chance. There is a responsibility to be faced. There is a humility to be fostered. There is a security to be found." Concerning the student body,Begg said,"I've been struck bythe vibrancy of the group, the care with which they have apparently listened to the talks, and the depth of the questions they have wanted to ask in private conversation. There seems to be a seriousness in the desire to follow Christ." When asked what he mostenjoyed about the conference,Begg said,"Being for the first time in this new auditorium and being struck by the tremendous impact the college is having on so many young people. It's nice to be part of that." Step !mks

Convocation is a time in which the college family gathers together during the chapel hour and celebrates the beginning ofanew school year. Allofthe professors display theirown caps,gowns,and hoods for the occasion. This year's events were highlighted by several arrangements performed by Dr. David Drullinger, remarks by both Academic Vice President Dr. Duane Wood and College President Dr. Paul Dixon, and finally the Fall Bible Conference speaker, Alistair Begg. The message was a continuance of his series entitled,"My Times are in Your Hands." He based this series on Psalm 31:15. Beggchallengedlistenerstorealizewho the Christ they proclaim really is,"He is a Prophet,Priest and King." Although Begg encouraged tolerance in some areas,he expressed his beliefthat particularity is unavoidable in the lives of Christians. He also encouraged both students and faculty to "seize the moment" and "declare the cross." Dr. Clifford Johnson closed the event with a benediction andDr. Drullinger played the recessional to Glorious Things ofThee are Spoken. Theconvocation exercises proved to be a time oflearning and encouragementfor the college family. StWoNtarks FALL BIBLE CONF./COVOCATION

WINTER BtalfrA,„ Dr. John MacArthur presented three challenges to the Cedarville College family during the Winter Enrichment Conference: Be strong, value truth, and understand the message ofthe Gospel. MacArthuris the pastor/teacherofthe5,000-memberGraceCommunity Churchin Santa Clarita, California. He is also president of Master's College and Seminary. He authored the MacArthur Study Bible and numerous other books. Although MacArthur's stay was cut short because ofthe suddenlossofhis mother,hespoketo students,faculty,community members,and agroupofpastors through two morning services and one evening service. Atthe beginning ofhis first message,MacArthursaid,"In case you're wondering whatmytheme is,its'Things I Want to Talk About.' Each message focused on a timely issue that was pertinent to the college family. "During the Winter Enrichment Conference, I wanted to raise the level of commitment," MacArthur said. "I wanted to focus on developing the right kind of thinking. I Corinthians 2:16 talks about having the mind ofChrist. As we think-- we are. I wanted to present familiar things in an unfamiliar way so that it would come through fresh." On Wednesday morning, MacArthur presented four illustrations from II Timothy 2:1-6. He encouraged the listeners to view themselves as teachers, take on a soldier's mentality, exhibit an athlete's discipline, and seek fruit like a fanner. MacArthur challenged the listeners to remain strong in a culture that is quickly declining. MacArthur's Wednesday evening message revealed the destructive nature oflying, specific to the reasons for President Clinton's impeachment trial. In his introduction,MacArthur pointed out numerous versesfrom Proverbsthatshow how much God hates lies. The main partofMacAuthur's message came from Jeremiah 5. "Love of truth and fear of lying is the foundation of Christian character," he said. Many pastors from surrounding states came for a pastors conference ofThursday. They,along with the rest of the college body, heard MacArthur speak during Thursday's morning chapel. MacArthur emphasized how important it is for Christians to understand the gospel. He used II Corinthians 5:18-21 to demonstrate that reconciliation is at the core of the Gospel message. "Substitution is the key word,"MacArthursaid. "God treated Jesus asifhe had committed every sin by every person who would ever believe. Jesus was here for 33 years to live a perfect life so our life could be credited -- that is the heart and soul of the Gospel." Many students responded to MacArthur's straightfoward presentation and were disappointed that the remainder ofthe conference was canceled because ofthe unfortunate circumstances. "He has a way oftaking issues directly out of a Bible passage and presenting to his audience what the Bible says about them and why it's so important that you understand them," senior Shannah Campbell said. "He gets to the real meatofthe matter,but he never goes over your head. He talks very well to an audience of various levels." Wednesday's evening message on lying drew a lot offeedback. "It's not enough to know that it's wrong to lie," Campbell said. "We have to know why it's wrong and the consequences of a leader who does lie." "One thing that caught my attention was his quote,'When somebody becomes a liar, they're capable ofdoing anything,"junior Ryan Stephens said. "We're all depraved and capable ofdoing anything. Why single out lying? It didn't seem like a good analogy to me." "My favorite message was this morning," junior Rebekah Schuring said in reference to Thursday's message on salvation. "I appreciate how he brought it back to the mostimportant thing -- that we remember what Christ did for us is totally undeserved. Every time we hear it, we should be totally struck in awe. What got me the most was when we left. Everyone started talking about lunch. Nobody stopped to takefive minutestothank Godfor whathe'sdonefor us. When you hear a message like that, you have to stop and thank God." stentulmson 0 CHAPEL

SPRING BR Evening and morning speakers, worshipful melodies, mission representatives, and informative seminars comprised this year's Missions Conference. TheTuesday nightservice began with keynote speaker Ed Lewis, Senior Missions Mobilizer from International Teams, giving the message. Lewis' message was "Finding God's Will in Important Decisions." Lewis used an analogy to illustrate offering our bodies as living#s2a0crifices(Romans 12:1-2). Students responded with laughter when he asked them to imagine dousing their pet hampster,Chucky,with gasoline and burning him asasacrifice.Hesaid thatunlike Chucky, whoisdead,wekeep wanting to getupoffthe alter. He concluded#his message by saying, "When you have the mind of God,you will think thesame thoughts God does and will be able to make decisions in a way that God would." ce On Wednesday night, Lewis sobered his audience with a message about self-deceit. "Lies you tell yourself are the worst kind oflies," he said."Wedo our bestto forgetthe lost and dying. We're telling ourselves lies, that it doesn't really matter.The condition of people outside of Christ is sad," Lewis said. Thursday night,Lewis gave his final challenge to the student body. "One source of authority that you cannot question is Jesus," he said."Hegives ustwocommandments:we are to love one another and disciple all nations. In a war effort, everybody better be involved. It's the same with his body. Not everyone will be aforeign cross-cultural missionary.Some mightplan battlefield strategy, financially support missionaries, or play the extremely important role ofa prayer warrior. I know God wants you to be involved." stmrktison WINTER/SPRING BIBLE CONFERENCE 0

DIXPla Chapel with Dr.Dixon is a time that many members ofthe college body look forward to. Almost every Monday he shares with Cedarville students whatthe Lord has laid upon his heartforthat week. Thefocus of the 1998-99 school year was "Practicing the Power ofPrayer." Many of Dr. Dixon's messages focusedonprayer,mainlyChrist's prayer life and our own prayer lives. To start out the year he shared the priority,place,and purpose ofChrist's prayers. He then challenged students to apply principles of Christ's prayer life their own.Dr. Dixon's lessons ranged from the prayer of Jabez to the prayer that each student should have. He also shared ways in which students should pray and mercies that God has bestowed uponthem.Dr.Dixon showedhis loveforthe students here at Cedarville as he addressed the pressures in life thateach one experiences, especially at the end of each quarter. With his message on pressures,heencouraged students to keep ourfocuson God,both here at Cedarville and throughout our lifetimes. ds Dr. DI;X011., shares a,comicalmoweitt with, Me,student daring ki famous "Daode&okr.

One book he read last year so influenced the college president that he asked Hugh Hewitt, author of "The Embarrassed Believer,"to speak before the student body on the annual Charter Day chapel. Hewitt is a well-known journalist in Southern California. His Emmy-award winning program Lifeand TimesairsonLos Angeles PBS station and he is often sought out as a speaker on the West Coast. As a Charter Day speaker, Hewitt's dynamic and contemporary lecture came as something of a surprise. Students who "saved a skip for Charter Day," expecting the usual aged theologian, missed a message aimed at motivating students to pursue media careers or support those who do. Halfway through his message,Hewitt asked students planning on pursuing careers in the media to stand. He saw few,and asked the rest ofthe audience to pray for those standing. "The Marines ofthe cultural war are the Christians who will go into Journalism and who will stand up for what they believe—not to become Christian journalists, but to be journalists who are Christians and unashamed ofthe Gospel," Hewitt said. For those not "called" to pursue journalism, Hewitt advised, "Find the good and praise it." In this context,he was speaking of mainstream media. He sited "Thechallenge by theLosAngeles Times,relithe example ofhow few letters foryou...ifs to gion Christian. columniiset,wai nttefvoaungde1it this aisl distressing and cautioned his encoura e the audience against fostering a li h . similar apathy. "Thechallengefor you... is ,, curc to encourage the church when -Hugh Hewitt it makes a dent on the culture and not just to complain when the culture makes a dent on the church." A panel of professors who recalled the early days of Baptist Cedarville completed the celebration of Charter Week. History professor J. Murray Murdoch led the platform discussion. Although humorous, most of the panelists reminiscence focused on God'sprovision during the 112years Cedarville hasbeenchartered as an institution for higher learning. "Ourtradition is rooted in the Word of God, and traditions provide an anchor in times of upheaval," Murdoch said. DIXON CHAPELS/CHARTER DAY

LitilMESHIP In the political arena, to be a black conservative is to be an oxymoron. Kay Cole James, who served as Staley Lecturer in January of this year, goes against every stereotype raised against women in the public sector. More importantly,as she defends her politics, she does so by remaining true to her biblical convictions. "What you see is what you get. I am a pro-life, evangelical, conservative,blackrepublican,"she said,introducing herselfwithai you don'tthink it a ectsyou,ifyou don't think this hasany significance whatsoever, Iwanttogiveyoua wake up call." — Kay ColeJames out apology. The lectures James presented at Cedarville coincided with herlatest book,Transforming America from the Inside Out. Under the umbrella theme of Christians in the public arena,James titled her progressive series of lectures: "Transforming Myself," "Transforming My Community," and "Transforming America." James launched straight into her lecture series with a challenge that sent students back to their computers to frantically surf the CNN website for current events. She spoke fervently of the relevance oftheimpeachmentcrisis which held our attentionfrom Novemberthrough the startofWinter Quarter. "If you don'tthink it affects you;If you don't think this has any significance whatso ever,I wantto give you a wake up call. We are at a crisis point in American history and I don't think it's an overstatement to say...what we do now as a free people will determine whatthe rest of yourlife and thatofyour children and grandchildren is like," James said. Each time James spoke,she exhorted her audience to be involved, not just in church function and recreational soccer, but tangibly in public affairs. On Wednesday afternoon, James spoke to students in American Government and Women in America. "One ofthe hardest things to do is motivate Christians to be involved in culture-shaping areas," she told the students. "The responsibility lies with us to figure out not only a political strategy butacultural strategy.How are wegoing to affect our culture?" "Oneofthe hardestthings to do is to motivate Christians to be involved in culture-shapingissues. — Kay Cole James y Colejagtes ckallenged students to traitsftru4, A werica, byfirst transftruciog thecuseives.
