John Updike is regarded as one of our greatest American writers. Many people would not know, however, the centrality of religion in his life. He was the grandson of a Presbyterian minister. His first wife was the daughter of a Unitarian minister (so they joined a congregational church as a “midway between two sects”). With his second wife, he worshipped as an Episcopalian to his life’s end.
Much of Updike’s early work reflected an immersion in Christian theology, but a couple of years before he died he told an audience of 300 at a lecture in New York City that “he looked more to the congregation of his hometown Massachusetts church as the rock of his faith today… when I haven't been to church in a couple of Sundays I begin to hunger for it and need to be there. It's not just the words, the sacraments. It's the company of other people, who show up and pledge themselves to an
found him imaginative, relevant, and eloquent as he embedded his beliefs in the everyday of people’s lives. Shortly after graduating Harvard, he submitted a poem to a Religious Arts competition. Updike had struggled with his faith, but had found his way, or had been found in his waywardness. He wrote:
Make no mistake: if He rose at all it was as His body;
If the cells’ dissolution did not reverse, the molecules reknit, the amino acids rekindle, the Church will fall.
It was not as the flowers, each soft Spring recurrent; it was not as His Spirit in the mouths and fuddled eyes of the eleven
apostles; it was as His flesh: ours.
The same hinged thumbs and toes, the same valved heart that – pierced-died, withered, paused, and then regathered out of
enduring Might new strength to enclose.
Let us not mock God with metaphor, analogy, sidestepping transcendence; making of the event a parable, a sign painted in
the faded credulity of earlier ages: let us walk through the door.
The stone is rolled back, not paper-mache’, not a stone in a story, but the vast rock of materiality that in the slow grinding
of time will eclipse for each of us the wide light of day.
And if we will have an angel at the tomb, make it a real angel, weighty with Max Planck’s quanta, vivid with hair,
opaque in the dawn light, robed in real linen spun on a definite loom.
Let us not seek to make it less monstrous, for our own convenience, our own sense of beauty, lest, awakened in one
unthinkable hour, we are embarrassed by the miracle, and crushed by remonstrance.
-- Seven Stanzas at Easter – John Updike
I believe the last stanza of the poem drives it home. I think we, the people of the 21st century, have a hard time navigating through the cinematic gore of “The Passion of the Christ” and the surface inconvenience of making it through an alcohol or chocolate free 40 days of Lent. Somewhere in the midst of this approach or non-approach to the utility of Lent is the reality of the horror of the crucifixion and the invitation of the One who willingly submitted to it.
that Jesus died for.
From Artificial to Authentic?
A Testimony from a New Member, Lauren Balltrip
There was a time when I was genuinely in love with God. I had a passion for talking about Him, learning about Him, but most of all, I had a passion for being with Him. I don’t know exactly when I began to lose that passion. But sometime during my last two years of high school, I found myself doubting a God I was once so deeply in love with. Because I was commonly known for my faith, my sudden doubts and questions were not something I was ready to confess. So began my path to an artificial faith. I went to bible study, but I didn’t read my bible. I attended church every Sunday, but my mind wandered through the service. And I continued to surround myself with good Christian friends, but the way they talked about Christ continuously raised more doubt, confusion and annoyance within me. As you can imagine, I soon became tired of living out this artificial faith I had so carefully created for myself. So I decided that when I graduated and began college in Charleston, I would dissociate myself from the church for a while. I was exhausted by my hypocritical way of life, and instead of rectifying my faith, I was ready to give it up. However, I got to Charleston and before I knew it, I was worshipping in Second Presbyterian Church, attending PSA and seeking out any faith centered discussions I could find. I can’t say that I understand exactly how all this happened. But I do know that God placed a lot of discontent upon my heart, and I’m so very glad He did. While in high school it seemed so easy to simply ignore the questions I was struggling with, I was aware of and hurt by the fact that the people around me had no idea what was actually going on in my faith life. However, from the moment I stepped into Second Presbyterian, I was forced to answer a lot of hard questions; and I knew that my lack of faith wouldn’t fool anyone. The day I joined Second Presbyterian, I was struggling with so many questions. Over the past few months, many of those questions have been answered; and many remain unanswered. But one thing I know is that God is teaching me the value of an authentic faith in Him. That is, a faith built upon His genuine, grace-filled truth and a passionate love for Christ. I don’t know if that is something I have yet, but it’s something I’m excited to grow and work toward. I am so infinitely thankful that faith in our God is not something we can easily fall away from; that God used what was left of my faith to pick me up and place me back on the right path. I praise God for the authentic faith He offers us when we choose to follow Him. But most of all, I pray that God will continue to use the community He has placed me in to show me exactly what an authentic faith in Him should look like.
Music for Holy Week
Music for Holy Week and the Easter season this year is drawn from the great oratorio Messiah by George Frideric Handel. On Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday and Good Friday the great choruses “Lift Up Your Heads”, “Behold the Lamb of God” and “Surely He Hath Borne Our Griefs” will be sung; on Easter, “Worthy Is the Lamb / Amen” and after Easter, “Since By Man Came Death”, “But Thanks Be to God.” There will also be several solos from Messiah during the season, sung by members of our choir. Rehearsals are Wednesday evenings, 7-8:30 in the choir room. Please contact Dr. Julia Harlow,
jharlow@secondpresbyterianchurch.org for more information or if you are interested in singing in the choir.
Devotional
What a winter this has been! Charleston had SNOW! Wow!
It also seems unbelievable that since Christmas we have seen an earthquake almost destroy the island nation of Haiti. In the Holy City of Charleston, we know what that means, living with the threat of earthquakes and hurricanes. Most of us have lived through Hugo and can understand the devastation and hopelessness left in the wake of disaster. But disaster always seems to rally the spirit to action and the heart to compassion and generosity. It is our greatest call to be servants of God, not just of The Word, but through our actions. For many of us in today's economy, the sacrifice is indeed great; but it is truly awesome, the measure that is returned to us when we sacrifice for others.
I chose this selection, entitled Help Others, Help Yourself, from my devotional, Tea Time with God. This selection describes how a small Southern church with a limited budget was ravaged by a tornado that almost wiped out their town. Coming to the aid of this church was a group of mostly retirees in recreational vehicles, who often traveled throughout the South during the fall and winter. They helped a congregation rebuild their church.
The same generosity of spirit, on a slightly different scale, is described in the Book of Acts. "All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they had. There were no needy persons among them. For, from time to time, those who owned lands or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles' feet, and it was distributed to anyone as he had need." (Acts 4:32,34-35 NIV)
When we have the chance to do good, we should jump at it. "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets." Jesus said in Matthew 7:12 (NIV), Jesus asked us to serve, and we will be blessed when we do so.
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. - James 2:26
No matter how bad our circumstances seem, there is always someone somewhere whose circumstances are far more hopeless and dire. It is in our sacrifice and in our service to those in need that we find blessings beyond measure and a sense of purpose that will fill our souls. That is God's gift and His promise to us!

Talks on Tap @Andolini’s - 82 Wentworth Street
The Value of Home Schooling
8:15 pm, Tuesday, March 23rd Home schooling is in some ways a unique American tradition, as the goal of developing nations is to create public education, and laws of most European nations forbid home schooling. Yet, in recent years this countercultural educational practice has become simultaneously more popular and more under attack in some parts of the country. Is home schooling a healthy alternative to public education or does it ultimately hinder children’s intellectual and emotional growth? Should it be protected, promoted or scrapped?
Who’s in Charge Up There? The Activity of God in the World
8:15 pm, Tuesday, April 13th Sometimes in life we feel as if everything that happens to us is infused with purpose and meaning. However, sometimes we feel as if nothing makes sense and is completely unconnected to a “grand plan.” So if a Creator exists, is he/she/it involved? If so, how much? Is God a micromanager, a spectator, or something in between? And what does it mean when people say, “God is sovereign?” Come share your experiences and ideas on the activity of God in our world.
To Burn the City You Love? The Ethics of Conflict, Violence,
and Destruction in Making the World a Better Place
8:15 pm, Tuesday, April 27th The great 20th century British author and commentator G.K. Chesterton lamented that too many men “looked only to the god within. They had not enough interest in the outer world really to wreck or revolutionize it. They did not love the city enough to set fire to it.” Essentially, they were men so set upon inner peace that they were unwilling to improve the greater world at the cost of conflict. So we ask, to what extent is it ethical to embrace conflict in order to achieve a good goal? How many lives are worth the overthrow of a tyrant? How many mudslinging commercials are worth unseating the corrupt incumbent? Does loving your company, faith, community, city or nation mean you’re willing to set fire to it?

Thank You from Younglife
By way of updating you all on what God is doing through Young Life here in Charleston, it is important for you to know our target kid is the un-churched or “lost” teenager. We go after kids on their turf, and pursue them relationally. We also have weekly meetings we call club that reach a few hundred kids weekly. One of our favorite things to do with the kids we work with is to take them to one of Young Life’s amazing camps for a weekend or weeklong adventure. This school year and summer we share this great opportunity with over 300 kids. All together, we estimate the ministry of Young Life reaches nearly 400
kids a week on a weekly basis through our CLUB meetings, CAMPS, as well as Bible studies and just reaching out to them where they are.
We have an active ministry at Wando, James Island, West Ashley, and Porter- Gaud High Schools as well as a presence on Daniel Island with middle school students. We are also a very active college ministry and are growing that outreach to meet more college students at both College of Charleston and Charleston Southern University.
Please come by the office to say hi, and find out more of what God is doing in the lives of kids in Charleston through Young Life.
Darwin Week Debate
BRINGS BIG CROWD & BIG OPPORTUNITIES
Second Presbyterian Church recently partnered again with the College of Charleston to organize and host the Darwin Week Debate, the rare annual opportunity where the college forgoes its strict policy against associating with any church. Not wanting to indulge stereotypes of the Christian creationist vs. the Atheist evolutionist showdown, our debate centered on the nuanced, but constantly asked question: “Can you believe in both the Bible and evolution?” We wanted know if someone who was devoted to the authority of Scripture could as well have the same views of the origins of life as Darwin or many other secular scientists did. To keep the debate even more focused, we asked our debaters not to argue the science around the question, but the theology associated with different creationist and evolutionist viewpoints.
So the church rented out (for free) the third floor of the Southend Brewery downtown and prepared a Reformed royal rumble. Reformed, because in one corner was Dr. Rob Dillon, an evolutionary biologist at the College of Charleston and a member of First Scots Presbyterian. In the other corner was Dr. Mark Ross, the professor of systematic theology at Erskine Seminary and an Associate Reformed Presbyterian.
Over one-hundred fifty people packed the room, with many unable to even get in. Both debaters displayed very unique styles as the event unfolded, with Dr. Ross delivering articulate and lofty explanations on his views about the compatibility of the Bible with evolutionary theory and Dr. Dillon quoting extensive Scripture and remaining argumentatively aloof. The speakers crisscrossed topics from the earthquake in Haiti to the history of science in the enlightenment, though it was clear that Dr. Ross was trying to dig at the subtle intellectual problem of viewing science and religion as two entirely unrelated spheres. Dr. Dillon, however zeroed in on the sovereignty of God to use evolution as grand means of creation while accusing Dr. Ross of holding a “narrow view of God.” Surprisingly, Dr. Ross never went on the attack, instead choosing to remain on track with a message that Darwinian evolution cannot account for humanity and ethics. But by the end of the debate portion, Dr. Dillon’s unsettling but simpler arguments were carrying well with much of the audience.
However, the extensive question and answer part of the event with the audience turned things upside down. Dr. Dillon was pounded with questions that probed the intellectual coherency of his position. To the shock of the audience, his response was to refuse to answer half of the questions posed, bluntly stating that he was going to dodge them or that they were nonsensical and therefore unanswerable. At one point Dr. Dillon even confessed he didn’t believe what he was arguing for earlier—b actually did believe—a move that left the audience collectively scratching their heads. Meanwhile, Dr. Ross unflinchingly maintained his original assertions and improved his credibility with those in attendance.
In the aftermath of the event, interviews with the audience revealed split opinions on who “won” the debate. Yet, the split opinion opened up great opportunities for ministry, which evangelically-minded Dr. Ross and many other Talks on Tap member took advantage of. Quite a few students who came for extra credit and even some of the bar staff were able to have their questions convincingly answered about science and the Bible in one-on-one discussion.
There may have not been a clear win for the debaters, but it was a clear win for the Gospel.

On behalf of all of the students in the Presbyterian Student Association group, I'd like to express to the entire congregation of Second Presbyterian our gratitude and thanks for the incredible generosity of time, resources, and great food that have been shared with our group thus far this academic year. Once word went out that our budget had been slashed almost 50% and that continuing to serve meals to students on Wednesday nights was in jeopardy, the Session, Sessional committees, and lots of individuals stepped up and pitched in. The result was that we were able to serve meals every single Wednesday of first semester, with Second Pres folks doing the bulk of them. Students have loved the food and have been truly they feel from the "wider church" and Second Pres in particular. As you know, one of the most important parts of campus ministry is creating an environment of hospitality for students living and studying far from home and family. Second Presbyterian has helped create that sense of hospitality this past year at a whole new level and I just wanted to say thanks and ask that you share that appreciation with the congregation at Second Presbyterian.
I also wanted to say that we will continue to operate at the '09 budget level for all of 2010, so if there are occasionally individuals or groups within the church that would like to provide a meal or even part of a meal for students, it will be much appreciated. So far this semester, we have already had the Worship Committee and the Women's Bible study provide meals and that has indeed been a blessing.
In a time of economic downturn, it is often when the church is at its best. Thanks to all of you at Second Pres for sharing some of the best of who and what you are with PSA so far this year. Blessings-Deb Guess
