Download or read book J. H. Garrison and Disciples of Christ written by William E. Tucker and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-04-28 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The years between the Civil War and 1930 constitute the most critical period in the history of Disciples of Christ, yet little attempt has been made to understand that era's most prominent leaders, one of whom was J. H. Garrison. For more than sixty years, he edited and contributed to The Christian-Evangelist, the journal that became the weekly periodical of the Disciples. An editor with vast influence, he played a significant and sometimes decisive role in the life of his communion. This book is more than the story of one man; it is a critical study of the turbulent and transitional era in Disciple history spanned by his editorial career. The value of this book is enhanced by the extensive use that is made of J. H. Garrison's letters and diaries. This rich collection of source material has only recently been made available for historical research.

Download or read book Yet Saints Their Watch are Keeping written by J. Michael Utzinger and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evangelicals have always worried about how to be the Church in "the world." They have also struggled to determine with which institutions to attach themselves. Examining the idea of the church, or ecclesiology, within the Northern Protestant "establishment" in the late-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, J. Michael Utzinger argues that evangelical ecclesiology was characterized by denominational ambivalence. This ambivalence meant that, while Northern Protestants valued their denominational affiliations, they also had no compunction to work outside of them. Trans-denominational affiliations, a result of this ambivalence, often acted as an agent for change that not only disturbed but revitalized their home denominations. Evangelicals believed their denominations were worth fighting for, even while they criticized their respective denomination's shortcomings. Faced with what they perceived to be the waning of their cultural influence, different parties of evangelicals in the late-nineteenth worked to change the vision of the church within their home denominations. Utzinger examines the theological sources of ecclesiological change (doctrine of the Holy Spirit, eschatology, and methods of cultural engagement) that evangelicals promoted, and how these influenced later fundamentalism and modernism. Further, he carefully charts the dynamics of conflict and compromise within the Northern Protestant establishment churches. Using the Northern Baptist Convention, the Presbyterian Church in the USA, and Disciples of Christ as case studies, Utzinger shows that, despite their infighting, evangelicals typically found ways to cooperate with one another in order to preserve their denominational institutions. In other words, the controversies' results were not only contention but compromise. And, rather than indicating the eclipse of denominationalism, fundamentalism and modernism acted to revitalize those institutions and help them persist. - Publisher.

Book excerpt: Churches have split and denominations have formed over the issue of church government. While many Christians can explain their church's form of rule or defend it because of its "tried and true" traditions, few people understand their church's administrative customs from a biblical perspective. Who Runs the Church? explores questions such as: What model for governing the church does the Bible provide, and is such a model given for practical or spiritual reasons? Is there room for different methods within Christianity? Or is there a right way of "doing church"? And, finally, how (and by whom) should the church be governed? Four predominant approaches to church government are presented by respected proponents: Episcopalianism - represented by Peter Toon Presbyterianism - represented by L. Roy Taylor Single-Elder Congregationalism - represented by Paige Patterson Plural-Elder Congregationalism - represented by Samuel E. Waldron As in other Counterpoints books, each view is followed by critiques from the other contributors, and its advocate then responds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip Schaff's monumental work 'The Creeds of Christendom' is a comprehensive exploration of the historical development and theological significance of the creeds and confessions of the Christian faith. Divided into three volumes, Schaff meticulously examines the early creeds of the Church, the various confessions of the Protestant Reformation, and the modern statements of faith from different Christian traditions. Written in a clear and scholarly style, this work provides readers with a deep understanding of the foundational beliefs that have shaped Christian theology throughout history. Schaff's insightful analysis and detailed explanations make this book an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of Christian doctrine. Philip Schaff, a renowned church historian and theologian, brings his expertise to bear in 'The Creeds of Christendom'. With a deep knowledge of the historical and theological context in which these creeds were formulated, Schaff presents a nuanced and thorough examination of their significance. His passion for the subject matter is evident in the meticulous research and thoughtful insights that he brings to this monumental work. I highly recommend 'The Creeds of Christendom' to scholars, students, and anyone seeking a comprehensive understanding of the foundational beliefs of the Christian faith.
