Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of Methodism in Germantown Shrader; both mother and daughter were members of St. George's Church, and lived in the city of Philadelphia. The mother objected to the mar riage, on account of there being no Methodist meetings held in German town; the Academy building at that time being closed against them, Mr Regar promised the mother that if she would consent to her daughter marrying him, and they making their home with him in Germantown, he would take both mother and daughter to St. George's Church on Sundays until there should be regular services by the Methodists in Germantown. Upon this promise, the mother gave her consent, and on the twelfth day of November, 1799, Jacob Reger was married to the daughter, Dorothy Shrader, by the Rev. Ezekiel Cooper. (see Church record of St. George's Church.) At this time Jacob Reger was not a member of the Church. Mother and daughter moved to Germantown. Brother Reger kept his promise, and soon after that date Opened his house for public worship. The house is still standing on the southeast side of Haines street, about midway between the Main street and the present parsonage. From that time on until the year 1803, the Methodists, whose motto was, and ever should be, Onward and Upward, held their meetings in private houses; sometimes in the house of Brother Reger, sometimes in the house of Brother Joseph Jacobs, a frame house which stood at the corner of Main and Mill streets (the site now occupied by Eberle's drug store); and at other times in the shop of Frederick Axe, on the southwest side of the Main street, below Washington lane. (the property now belongs to Mrs. Ann Keyser.) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2015 Saddleback Selection Award from the Historical Society of The United Methodist Church During the nineteenth century, camp meetings became a signature program of American Methodists and an extraordinary engine for their remarkable evangelistic outreach. Methodism in the American Forest explores the ways in which Methodist preachers interacted with and utilized the American woodland, and the role camp meetings played in the denomination's spread across the country. Half a century before they made themselves such a home in the woods, the people and preachers learned the hard way that only a fool would adhere to John Wesley's mandate for preaching in fields of the New World. Under the blazing American sun, Methodist preachers sought and found a better outdoor sanctuary for large gatherings: under the shade of great oaks, a natural cathedral where they held forth with fervid sermons. The American forests, argues Russell E. Richey, served the preachers in several important ways. Like a kind of Gethesemane, the remote, garden-like solitude provided them with a place to seek counsel from the Holy Spirit. They also saw the forest as a desolate wilderness, and a means for them to connect with Israel's years after the Exodus and Jesus's forty days in the desert after his baptism by John. The dauntless preachers slashed their way through, following America's expanding settlement, and gradually sacralizing American woodlands as cathedral, confessional, and spiritual challenge-as shady grove, as garden, and as wilderness. The threefold forest experience became a Methodist standard. The meeting of Methodism's basic governing body, the quarterly conference, brought together leadership of all levels. The event stretched to two days in length and soon great crowds were drawn by the preaching and eventually the sacraments that were on offer. Camp meetings, if not a Methodist invention, became the movement's signature, a development that Richey tracks throughout the years that Methodism matured, to become a central denomination in America's religious landscape.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Will to Choose traces the history of African-American Methodism beginning with their emergence in the fledgling American Methodist movement in the 1760s. Responding to Methodism's anti-slavery stance, African-Americans joined the new movement in large numbers and by the end of the eighteenth century, had made up the largest minority in the Methodist church, filling positions of authority as class leaders, exhorters, and preachers. Through the first half of the nineteenth century, African Americans used the resources of the church in their struggle for liberation from slavery and racism in the secular culture.

Download or read book The Birth of Methodism in America written by J. S. Reynolds and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Birth of Methodism in America: With Photographs T is nearly a century and a half since the birth of Methodism in 1 America. From that angel-guarded cradle has grown a family numbering about one fifth of the population of the United States. This wonderful growth from so humble a birth has attracted the attention of the world. It has wielded a tremendous power in spreading the gospel of jesus Christ throughout the land which has had so much to do in shaping our present civilization. The purpose Of this little volume is not to give the history of Methodism in the United States, but to give all the history that is obtainable Of the Father Of Methodism in America. This is best accomplished by publishing the oration and addresses of the emi nent Methodists who participated in the ceremonies on the occa sion Of the removal Of the remains of the Father Of Methodism in America, and at the unveiling of the beautiful monument at Cam bridge, New York, erected by the National Local Preachers' Asso ciation of the' Methodist Episcopal Church to his memory. The aim Of the publisher is to perpetuate the name of the Father Of Methodism in America, and his contemporaries - names quite unknown, perhaps, to many of the present generation, but names honored and revered by all Methodists familiar with the early history of the Methodist Church in America. The beautiful half-tone photographs in this little volume are priceless. The plates from which they are taken are the only ones in existence and cannot be duplicated, thus making this little book a historical souvenir of great value.
