Book Synopsis While God is Marching On by : Steven E. Woodworth
Download or read book While God is Marching On written by Steven E. Woodworth and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2001-10-02 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They read the same Bible and prayed to the same God, but they faced each other in battle with rage in their hearts. The Civil War not only pitted brother against brother but also Christian against Christian, with soldiers from North and South alike devoutly believing that God was on their side. Steven Woodworth, one of our most prominent and provocative Civil War historians, presents the first detailed study of soldiers' religious beliefs and how they influenced the course of that tragic conflict. He shows how Christian teaching and practice shaped the worldview of soldiers on both sides: how it motivated them for the struggle, how it influenced the way they fought, and how it shaped national life after the war ended. Through the diaries, letters, and reminiscences of common soldiers, Woodworth illuminates religious belief from the home front to the battlefield, where thoughts of death and the afterlife were always close at hand. Woodworth reveals what these men thought about God and what they believed God thought about the war. Wrote one Unionist, "I believe our cause to be the cause of liberty and light . . . the cause of God, and holy and justifiable in His sight, and for this reason, I fear not to die in it if need be." With a familiar echo, his Confederate counterpart declared that "our Cause is Just and God is Just and we shall finally be successful whether I live to see the time or not." Woodworth focuses on mainstream Protestant beliefs and practices shared by the majority of combatants in order to help us better understand soldiers' motivations and to realize what a strong role religion played in American life throughout the conflict. In addition, he provides sharp insights into the relationship between Christianity and both the abolition movement in the North and the institution of slavery in the South. Ultimately, Woodworth shows us how opposing armies could put their trust in the same God while engaging in four years of organized slaughter and destruction. His compelling work provides a rich new perspective on religion in American life and will forever change the way we look at the Civil War.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Faith in God and Generals was penned and collected by my friends Ted Baehr and Susan Wales. As the pages of this anthology unfold, you will also become acquainted more intimately with many of the characters in the film. (Even in a three-plus-hour film, there is much more to be told about the historical characters.) The authors/editors have provided us with a closer look at these brave men and women as a companion piece to the movie. While the contributors of this inspiring book have expanded brilliantly on some of the characters appearing in the film, others in Faith in God and Generals are faces without names, and now they too will come alive on the pages of this book. Some of these gripping tales depict the strength, the angst, and the faith of the women left behind who loved these brave men.

Download or read book Triumph Amidst Bloodshed written by Craig L. Claybrook and published by Primedia E-launch LLC. This book was released on 2012 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRIUMPH AMIDST BLOODSHED Civil War Soldiers Spiritual Victories give eye witness accounts about hundreds of Union Soldiers during those fateful days. An organization, called the United States Christian Commission, sprang forth from the Y.M.C.A. To care for Soldiers throughout the duration of the war. More than 5,000 pastors and Christian laypeople contributed their time and thousands more donated Resources to the effort. At the conclusion of the war, these "delegates," As they were called, submitted around 10,000 stories, of which more than 500 were selected for publication in the book, Incidents of the U.S. Christian Commission (1869). This present book is an updated version of the Earlier in both language and writing style and gives the reader an amazing glimpse into the tragedy and triumph of the times. Simply put, the book presents men coming to Christ, coming back to Christ, or going to Christ. It shows how God used this incredible, yet largely unknown, ministry. In as much as possible, TRIUMPH is well documented in terms of time frames and Battles, names of participants and the eye witnesses who provided these Stories. The major contribution of this edition is the reference index which makes the stories highly accessible. This illustrative material is well-suited for pastors and other communication professionals. The book is equally inspiring for history or military buffs, seekers of truth, workers. In Christian ministry, and those who want to see some "high intensity" Christianity (revival) in action. The moving stories fall in the range from interesting to gut wrenching with a little humor thrown in as well. The editors wish for this book to be a fitting contribution to the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War with its accounts of the soldiers, many of whom gave their limbs while still others gave "their last full measure of Devotion."
Book Synopsis Bible & Battlefield 7 Lessons from the Civil War for our Christian Faith Today by : Amanda J. Lucas
Download or read book Bible & Battlefield 7 Lessons from the Civil War for our Christian Faith Today written by Amanda J. Lucas and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-10-14 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bible and Battlefield: 7 Lessons from the Civil War for Our Christian Faith Today is a type of Bible study that weaves history and biblical lessons together in a way that has not been done before. Bible and Battlefield will guide readers and study groups through several topics ranging from how to handle difficult people, what radical hospitality truly means, and having courage in life and leadership, all while connecting them to people, places, and events in the Civil War.The Bible itself is filled with true stories about real people and their experiences. The same can be said about the Civil War; it was about real people, real experiences, and real issues. It is easily forgotten that those true events happened on the other side of the sepia-tone photographs in the Library of Congress catalog. How quickly it is forgotten that the casualty numbers listed in countless textbooks represent real people! It is even simpler to forget that the Bible is not just a collection of unsubstantiated stories but is the real Word of God.History is not meant to be forgotten; it is not meant to be glossed over. Neither are the stories in the Bible, especially when those stories and lessons are difficult ones in this age of doing only what is comfortable. The Bible and history are ageless and applicable to every generation, yesterday and today. Bible and Battlefield seeks to bring both history and the Bible together in a way that deepens faith and applies that history in a manner that today's society often believes it is not - real and relevant.
