She has persisted, with the results detailed here. A huge number of items are available to inform us about Holiness, Pentecostal, and Charismatic congregations and organizations in the African-American Christian community.
Book Synopsis A Cultural History of the Emotions in the Age of Romanticism, Revolution, and Empire by : Susan J. Matt
Download or read book A Cultural History of the Emotions in the Age of Romanticism, Revolution, and Empire written by Susan J. Matt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-08-20 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1780 and 1920, modern conceptions of emotion-conceptions still very much present in the 21st century-first took shape. This book traces that history, charting the changing meaning and experience of feelings in an era shaped by political and market revolutions, romanticism, empiricism, the rise of psychology and psychoanalysis. During this period, the word emotion itself gained currency, gradually supplanting older vocabularies and visions of feeling. Terms to describe feelings changed; so too did conceptions of emotions' proper role in politics, economics, and culture. Political upheavals turned a spotlight on the role of feeling in public life; in domestic life, sentimental bonds gained new importance, as families were transformed from productive units to emotional ones. From the halls of parliaments to the familial hearth, from the art museum to the theatre, from the pulpit to the concert hall, lively debates over feelings raged across the 19th century.
Book Synopsis Pentecostal and Holiness Statements on War and Peace by : Jay Beaman
Download or read book Pentecostal and Holiness Statements on War and Peace written by Jay Beaman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-08-30 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Pentecostal groups have forgotten their legacy of war resistance and doctrinal history opposing killing. To rectify this loss, we have catalogued Holiness and Pentecostal denominational statements on war and peace. Numerous Holiness groups and virtually all early Pentecostal groups had some form of pacifist statement against war. This antiwar collection gives us an almost uniform picture of the early Pentecostal movement as largely pacifist in orientation. The commonality of these statements across both Holiness and Pentecostal movements is evidence they are a continuous group and not two separate movements. While their early doctrines opposed killing, many named in this book are now widely considered to be stalwarts of the Religious Right, or at least staunch supporters of Christian participation in war. Our hope is that this book will frame the official position of early Pentecostals on war and peace, and encourage Pentecostals today to reflect on their antiwar heritage.
Book Synopsis A Holiness Hermeneutic by : Stephen J. Lennox
Download or read book A Holiness Hermeneutic written by Stephen J. Lennox and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-04-26 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America in the late nineteenth century was undergoing enormous societal shifts. Immigration and urbanization were changing the face of the country. New discoveries and new perspectives on old verities stretched its mind and stirred its soul. The recently concluded Civil War left America bloodied, its self-confidence bruised, and its capacity for controversy weakened. American churches responded to these upheavals in different ways with long-lasting consequences. The reaction of one small branch of American Protestantism rooted in the broader stream of Methodism opens a window into these troubled times. This book explores how the American holiness movement navigated the societal maelstrom and the role the Bible played in charting its course. The holiness movement’s response illustrates the interaction between the Bible and culture. It sheds light on the development of the movement’s younger cousin, Pentecostalism. It also adds texture to the Fundamentalist-Modernist Controversy, an important struggle that marked the early decades of the twentieth century and continues to shape America today.
Book Synopsis A NEW PICTURE OF HOLINESS by : Mark Osereme
Download or read book A NEW PICTURE OF HOLINESS written by Mark Osereme and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is sad to see the personality of Holiness so misrepresented that it constitutes a hindrance in a believer's relationship with God. False Holiness is man's attempt to enter into perfect relationship with God through rules and regulations. God's present plan through Jesus Christ is to institutionalize Holiness into the salvation and spiritual life of every believer. Holiness fulfils and captures the essence of God's love, the type of love which has no need to condemn or judge but relishes in forgiveness and mercy. Holiness qualifies rather than disqualifies believers from serving God in all manners - "before him in love". The revelation of Holiness is a personal freedom to breathe the air of intimate and affectionate relationship with God without condemnation or guilt. We cannot earn Holiness through our works or by personal efforts but it is earned by safely depending on the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. Just like our Heavenly Father, holiness teaches us to love others unreservedly without a choice for who they are and not what we want them to be.
Book Synopsis The Holiness Revival of the Nineteenth Century by : Melvin E. Dieter
Download or read book The Holiness Revival of the Nineteenth Century written by Melvin E. Dieter and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 1996-04-09 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition expands and updates the only general interpretation of the rise and influence of perfectionist revivalism in America and Europe. Fifteen years of expanding research on the holiness movement reinforce this volume's continuing seminal value to cultural and social research. The new concluding essay describes the history of the revival through the turn of the century. This book expands our understanding of the fragmentation and coalescence of American religion by analyzing the factors which created numerous new holiness denominations. Dieter also outlines the historical and theological factors that separate this largely Wesleyan and Methodist wing of evangelicalism from the fundamentalism of Reformed evangelicals. The identification of such nuances will prove especially helpful to those struggling with the extreme diversity in American religion, especially in evangelicalism. For students and scholars of American religious movements as well as students of the feminist, temperance, abolitionist, and populist movements in American society.

Book Synopsis Wesleyan-Holiness Churches in Australia by : Glen O'Brien
Download or read book Wesleyan-Holiness Churches in Australia written by Glen O'Brien and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Wesleyan-Holiness churches started in the US, developing out of the Methodist roots of the nineteenth-century Holiness Movement. The American origins of the Holiness movement have been charted in some depth, but there is currently little detail on how it developed outside of the US. This book seeks to redress this imbalance by giving a history of North American Wesleyan-Holiness churches in Australia, from their establishment in the years following the Second World War, as well as of The Salvation Army, which has nineteenth-century British origins. It traces the way some of these churches moved from marginalised sects to established denominations, while others remained small and isolated. Looking at The Church of God (Anderson), The Church of God (Cleveland), The Church of the Nazarene, The Salvation Army, and The Wesleyan Methodist Church in Australia, the book argues two main points. Firstly, it shows that rather than being American imperialism at work, these religious expressions were a creative partnership between like-minded evangelical Christians from two modern nations sharing a general cultural similarity and set of religious convictions. Secondly, it demonstrates that it was those churches that showed the most willingness to be theologically flexible, even dialling down some of their Wesleyan distinctiveness, that had the most success. This is the first book to chart the fascinating development of Holiness churches in Australia. As such, it will be of keen interest to scholars of Wesleyans and Methodists, as well as religious history and the sociology of religion more generally.

Book Synopsis Historical Dictionary of the Holiness Movement by : William Kostlevy
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Holiness Movement written by William Kostlevy and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-08-03 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is much harder to define a religious movement than it is to define a religion or denomination. That applies especially when that movement almost defies definition as the Holiness Movement does. The Holiness Movement is a Methodist religious renewal movement that has over 12 million adherents worldwide. Perhaps the most familiar public manifestation of the holiness movement has been its urban holiness missions, and the Salvation Army_noted for its service ministries among poor and people suffering the dislocations that accompany war and disaster_is the most notable example. In the second edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Holiness Movement, important new developments in the Holiness Movement_such as the widely discussed 'Holiness Manifesto'_are thoroughly discussed, and the content has also been expanded to include information on figures from Asia and Africa to reflect the continued growth of the Holiness Movement. With a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and over 400 cross-referenced dictionary entries, this reference has information that cannot be found elsewhere.

Book Synopsis Nigeria's Christian Revolution by : Richard Burgess
Download or read book Nigeria's Christian Revolution written by Richard Burgess and published by OCMS. This book was released on 2008 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nigeria has become the arena of one of the most remarkable religious movements of recent times, reflecting the shift in the global center of Christianity from the North to the South. This book tells the story of one sector of this movement from its root in the Nigerian civil war to the turn of the new millenium. It describes a revival that occurred among the Igbo people of Eastern Nigeria and the new Pentecostal churches it generated and documents the changes that have occurred as the movement has responded to global flows and local demands. As such, it explores the nature of revivalist and Pentecostal experience but does so against the backdrop of local socio-political and economic developments, such as decolonization and civil war, as well broader processes, such as modernization and globalization.
Download or read book Holy Jumpers written by William Kostlevy and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-05-19 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking book, William Kostlevy presents a fascinating study of the Metropolitan Church Association (MCA), a religious community founded in Chicago in the early 1890s. The MCA was one of the most controversial societies of the era. Its members were called "jumpers" because of their acrobatic worship style, and "Burning Bushers" after their caustic periodical, the Burning Bush. They objected to the concept of private property, rejected "elite" denominations, and professed an alternative, radical vision of Christianity, using modern music and folk art to spread their message. A product of the holiness revival of the late nineteenth century and a catalyst for Pentecostalism, the MCA played a vital role in the twentieth century growth of evangelical Christianity, yet it has long been ignored in studies of American radicalism, of communal societies, and even of holiness and Pentecostal Christianity. Kostlevy rectifies this omission, providing a valuable new context for understanding the origins of Pentecostalism. He investigates the internal struggles of the Holiness Movement, showing how radically divergent theological currents came to dominate a major segment of the American evangelical community. He also shows how deeply the MCA impacted the lives of twentieth century evangelists Bud Robinson and Seth C. Rees, self-designated first woman bishop Alma White, and Pentecostal evangelists A. G. Garr and Glenn Cook. As Holy Jumpers demonstrates, Holiness Christians, and the MCA in particular, played a profoundly formative role in the development of modern evangelical and Pentecostal Christianity.
