EAST was very honoured to have Dr Robert K MacEwen return as an Adjunct Faculty to teach an intensive course on the Exposition of Matthew from 22 November to 1 December which just ended last week. Dr Rob had travelled from The Netherlands with his wife Dr Lisa in the midst of a busy term time from Tyndale Theological Seminary where he is the Academic Dean to serve the students at EAST. EAST News caught up with him on a short interview below and his student Letitia wrote a short reflection on what she had learnt from the class.
Below are some interview questions for our website readers to get to know Dr Robert K MacEwen better.
1. What were the years you taught at EAST, what subjects did you teach, and what are some favourite memories you have of EAST?
I taught at EAST as a resident faculty member from 2010 through 2016, a time when EAST was at the Dorset Road campus. Since then I have been back a few times to teach module courses as an adjunct faculty member. The courses I’ve taught at EAST have included New Testament Narratives, New Testament Epistles and Revelation, New Testament Apologetics, Exposition of the Gospel of Matthew, Interpreting the Synoptic Gospels, Greek, Greek Exegesis, and Exegesis of 1 & 2 Thessalonians.
Prayer Pointers 7 December 2023
Are you still fretting over the best gift for your loved ones this Christmas?
“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord”. Roman 6:23 -ESV
What better gift than to introduce the giver of everlasting life to them?
Praise God:
– That the free gift of God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who purchased it for us. He is the All in all in our salvation.
– That when we trust in Christ, God gives us credit for Christ’s sinless life and accepts the payment of Christ’s death for our sin, that we have eternal life with Him, sharing in His glory.
Pray for:
– All EAST faculty, staff and students to continue having a sense of urgency and fervency in sharing the gospel during this Advent season.
– All Christians to adopt the holy living and evangelistic lifestyle that attract people to God’s hope, peace, joy and love.
