Chapel Service: Roy Comrie / Roy Hall October 22/23 1992 / Gary Inrig - November 4 1991

Audio 29a consists of the following recording:
Title: Roy Comrie – “Canada, a Mission Field” and “Communication”
Roy Hall – “Holiness”
Missionary Roy Comrie speaks to students in chapel about missions. He reads extensively from the Bible. He argues that Canada has become one of the neediest places for missions. The apathy of the Western Church is the greatest problem in the world. He believes that the greatest need in the world is that those who name the name of Jesus Christ be “clean”. God grants purpose. Comrie illustrates the need for testimony in Canada with a personal story. He relates a few other personal stories including bringing Bibles to North Korean troops in Zimbabwe. He then leads the group in prayer. This section ends and a second chapel service begins. Comrie begins with an anecdote about miscommunication. He begins to speak about the Book of Revelation, but the recording cuts off suddenly. A third recording begins with John Ralston, from the Career Center, making announcements and introducing Roy Hall. Hall speaks about Trinity Western University as a distinct society. He discusses the importance and meaning of holiness. He illustrates his points with several personal stories. Hall emphasizes that one should not falsify his or her application or resume. A resume is a reelection of one’s testimony to the world. It should reflect the values of the individual.
Audio 29b consists of the following recording:
Title: Gary Inrig – All Campus Chapel – “Being Christian”

Despite the beauty of Vancouver, the people who live here fail to recognize the Glory of God. He illustrates his points with personal stories. He points out there is a difference between knowing about God and knowing God. He calls the students to glorify God and to enjoy God. He argues that the purpose of life is to do, one hundred percent, the will of God. Finally, he leads the group in prayer.

Title: Dave Currie (FamilyLife Canada) (later Dr. David Currie, Marriage and Family Educator) – “Ministry to Generation X”
This tape was recorded as part of a series on how to minister to Generation X. Currie states that real life is gauged by responsiveness to truth. He defines Generation X and examines the effects of the postmodern mindset on religion. He discusses several factors that have developed the Generation X mentality. The number of ‘broken' homes has increased, and has wounded Generation X individuals. Currie also notes that there is a pessimistic worldview prevalent through Generation X. He discusses the Gen X view of authority, volunteerism, television, community, and fear. He argues that Generation X lives in a sense of isolation, feeling abandoned as a result of their Baby Boomer parents' desire for affluence. The only constant in their worldview is change. He states Gen X individuals are deeply religious because they are looking for something more, yet have cast off traditional religions. The tape ends and is continued on Aud. 30b

Title: Dave Currie – “Ministry to Generation X”
Currie continues his analysis of the Generation X mindset. He puts into context the mindset and person of a Generation X individual. He then attempts to explain how to relate to Gen. X individuals. He explains the necessity of being authentic and transparent. Generation X individuals will be socialized into faith; however, there is a danger that they will be converted to community and not to faith. Gen X-ers are seeking family / community. Gen X believes that experience trumps dogma. He relays several important ways to minister to Gen X-ers. He encourages Boomers to model positive behavior, acceptance, kindness, tolerance, and family. Currie feels that Gen X needs to be shown that family is more important than material success. They need to be challenged to utilize their freedom in a positive way. He argues against Yuppie-ism, high consumerism and Boomer Bias. Currie then takes questions from the audience. The recording ends and is continued on Aud. 30c
