Book excerpt: Snake-handlers and faith-healers, tent meetings and river baptisms, impoverished country churches and imposing city edifices all are elements of that segment of American protestanism known as the "minor sects." These religions--Church of Christ, Assembly of God, Free Will Baptist, Cumberland Presbyterian, and the many Holiness and Pentecostal churches, among other lesser-known bodies--make up a significant majoirty among the more than 67 million United States protestants. Generally considered churches of the lower classes--the "common man"--these sects have been stereotyped as theologically conservative, socially reactionary, and racially bigoted. WHITE SECTS AND BLACK MEN examines sectarian attitues and behavior during the period following World War II.

Book Synopsis Churches of Christ in Oklahoma by : W. David Baird
Download or read book Churches of Christ in Oklahoma written by W. David Baird and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2020-01-23 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1950s and 1960s, Churches of Christ were the fastest growing religious organization in the United States. The churches flourished especially in southern and western states, including Oklahoma. In this compelling history, historian W. David Baird examines the key characteristics, individuals, and debates that have shaped the Churches of Christ in Oklahoma from the early nineteenth century to the beginning of the twenty-first century. Baird’s narrative begins with an account of the Stone-Campbell movement, which emerged along the American frontier in the early 1800s. Representatives of this movement in Oklahoma first came as missionaries to American Indians, mainly to the Cherokees, Chickasaws, and Choctaws. Baird highlights the role of two prominent missionaries during this period, and he next describes a second generation of missionaries who came along during the era of the Twin Territories, prior to statehood. In 1906, as a result of disagreements regarding faith and practice, followers of the Stone-Campbell Movement divided into two organizations: Churches of Christ and Disciples of Christ. Baird then focuses solely on Churches of Christ in Oklahoma, all the while keeping a broader national context in view. Drawing on extensive research, Baird delves into theological and political debates and explores the role of the Churches of Christ during the two world wars. As Churches of Christ grew in number and size throughout the country during the mid-twentieth century, controversy loomed. Oklahoma’s Churches of Christ argued over everything from Sunday schools and the support of orphan’s homes to worship elements, gender roles in the church, and biblical interpretation. And nobody could agree on why church membership began to decline in the 1970s, despite exciting new community outreach efforts. This history by an accomplished scholar provides solid background and new insight into the question of whether Churches of Christ locally and nationally will be able to reverse course and rebuild their membership in the twenty-first century.

Book Synopsis Discovering Our Roots by : Crawford Leonard Allen
Download or read book Discovering Our Roots written by Crawford Leonard Allen and published by Abilene Christian University Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This rich and challenging book explores the roots or ancestry of the Churches of Christ and others who stand as heirs to the Stone-Campbell movement of the early nineteenth century. It asks, Where did we come from? How did we get this way? Why do we read the Bible the way we do? What has been the heart of our movement? And it asks further, What can we learn from those who have viewed restoration of apostolic Christianity in ways quite different from our own? The authors begin their story in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries - the age of Renaissance and Reformation. They isolate the stream of restorationist thought that arose in that age and then follow that stream through the Puritans, the early Baptists in America, the frenzy of pure beginnings in the early decades of American nationhood, and down to the Stone-Campbell movement.

Book Synopsis The Unexpected Christian Century by : Scott W. Sunquist
Download or read book The Unexpected Christian Century written by Scott W. Sunquist and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1900 many assumed the twentieth century would be a Christian century because Western "Christian empires" ruled most of the world. What happened instead is that Christianity in the West declined dramatically, the empires collapsed, and Christianity's center moved to Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Pacific. How did this happen so quickly? Respected scholar and teacher Scott Sunquist surveys the most recent century of Christian history, highlighting epochal changes in global Christianity. He also suggests lessons we can learn from this remarkable global Christian reversal. Ideal for an introduction to Christianity or a church history course, this book includes a foreword by Mark Noll.
