This page is a gathering place for some of the articles, speeches, editorials, and even therapeutic rants that Bob Stewart wrote over the years.

The United Church of Canada in British Columbia
This article was published in Circle of Voices, a book that appeared at the time of the meeting of the World Council of Churches in Vancouver in 1983. It is a brief history of the United Church and its predecessors in British Columbia.

Nurturing the Spirit
This article was published in 1990 in Archivaria, the journal of the Association of Canadian Archivists. It is about the role of church archives and archivists.

The Religious and Political Culture of British Columbia
This paper is a presentation Bob used to give now and then for an orientation program for United Church clergy who are newly transferred into British Columbia. Bob wrote, "It is a bit of a grab bag of arguments, opinions, and thoughts, and sometimes the ideas seem badly in need of revision, an undertaking that I have rarely had time for. It is my faint but reasonable hope that if I print the paper here on the website, I may not be required to present it anywhere in the future."

Bob commented "These two items are something between a rant and therapy and an analysis of the times and circumstances in the midst of our Residential School woes, written, I think in the late 1990s."
