Book excerpt: Rufus Jones (1863-1948) helped organize the Quäkerspeisung (Quaker feeding effort), saving millions from starvation after the First World War. In Germany he is best known for having travelled to Berlin to seek a personal meeting with Hitler after the Kristallnacht in 1938. And, at the conclusion of a long life devoted to service, it was largely due to Jones that the American Friends Service Committee was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1947. But Jones was also the quintessential «American scholar», seeking to harmonize theory and practice. He was a pivotal figure of the 20th century who stayed in close touch with authors and statesmen the world over. He earned a reputation as a modern mystic and an active pacifist, and was regarded as the moral conscience of his era. His scholarship encompassed education and pedagogy, philosophical questions, church and Quaker history, as well as the political issues of the day. Jones dealt with such issues as justice, democracy, and child-rearing. His ideas are still alive today and still arouse controversy. He was particularly anxious to avoid the cultivation of an elite, pleading instead for individual growth and personality development. Over the course of his life, he was awarded twelve academic titles, taught at numerous universities, delivered countless lectures, and was one of the first theologians to recognise the significance of radio and to make full use of it. To this day Rufus Jones is still honored as a «seer», «Protestant mystic», and even as a «Master Quaker» and «Quaker Giant». It is time also to take a critical look at these honors.

This book was released on 2021-09-17 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 17th century, a young man named George Fox was dissatisfied with the Church of England and its Nonconformists. The Church was dictatorial and considered anyone who went against it a heretic. It often followed that with punishment that sometimes involved getting burnt at the stake. Tired of the Church's ways and seeking a direct spiritual experience for himself, Fox concluded that the presence of God could be found within people rather than in churches, and that's the belief the Quaker religion is built on. Like any Nonconformists religion that defied the sovereignty of the Catholic Church, The Quakers didn't go unpunished. Yet, they have thrived to this day, have two US presidents under their belt, and were known as early abolitionist and champions of women's suffrage. In this book, Rufus Jones details the faith, practice and history of The Quakers, and it's one that will leave you inspired.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Informed reassessment of Pentecostalism as a mystical tradition of the church universal Pentecostalism, says Daniel Castelo, is commonly framed as "evangelicalism with tongues" or dismissed as simply a revivalist movement. In this book Castelo argues that Pentecostalism is actually best understood as a Christian mystical tradition. Taking a theological approach to Pentecostalism, Castelo looks particularly at the movement's methodology and epistemology as he carefully distinguishes it from American evangelicalism. Castelo displays the continuity between Pentecostalism and ancient church tradition, creating a unified narrative of Pentecostalism and the mystical tradition of Christianity throughout history and today. Finally, he uses a test case to press the question of what the interactions between mystical theology and dogmatics could look like.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps no religious group enjoys such wholehearted esteem as the Society of Friends. Ever since their founding, the Quakers have proved a stimulating and inspiriting force in the Christian Church. Standing for Jesus’ program for world peace, practicing non-resistance, and performing miracles of mercy and relief in a world of hatred, they have achieved a position almost unique in Christendom. Their astonishing history is here told by one who is of all men most fitted for the task—Dr. Rufus M. Jones, one of the founders of the American Friends Service Committee and one of the most influential Quakers of the 20th century.
