Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Congregational Independency in Scotland Fifty-two years ago, on the occasion of the jubilee of the origin of the Congregational Churches in 1798, a proposal was made that a history should be prepared, but although some materials were gathered for this purpose by the late Mr. Kinniburgh of Edinburgh, no steps appear to have been taken with a view to publication. It seemed fitting that the centenary of the origin of later Independency in Scotland should be signalised by an attempt to carry out the proposal of the fathers of half a century ago, and also to meet the desire which has often been expressed for a historical account of the Independent churches in Scotland down to the present time; and it is with this object that the present work has been undertaken. It will be found to consist mainly of a history of origins, and that most of the record here given deals with the various forms of Christian enterprise on the part of the churches in their beginnings. It could not well be otherwise, for in the absence of those ecclesiastical organisations which belong to other religious bodies, and which make their history more or less eventful, it is only in connection with some new departures in thought and activity that Congregational church-life affords materials for historical record.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steve Bruce here presents a highly readable account of the changing nature and place of religion in Scotland in an increasingly irreligious society. In 1900 Scotland was a largely Presbyterian country and the Christian churches were a major social force. Now less than 10 per cent of Scots attend church. As religion has declined, it has become more varied: Catholicism has grown as have Charismatic Christian fellowships; Buddhist and Hindu themes have 'easternised' our religious vocabulary; a significant Muslim population has become established; and a notable number of Scots now pursue personal spiritual interests in forms which would once have been dismissed as pagan. Both this decline and the diversification deserve explanation. The Protestant-Catholic divide has faded but Scots have new controversies over the proper public place of religion in the light of growing secularization and diversification. The growth of individual liberty and increasing cultural diversity combine to weaken all shared beliefs by changing religion from a social matter into a private personal concern. All religious groups are faced with the choice of either accommodating that trend and losing their distinctiveness or resisting it and making membership too costly for most potential adherents. This radical remapping of Scotland's religious character is a fascinating summary of a remarkable career of research and analysis by one of Scotland's leading social historians.Topics include: Lewis, Orkney and Shetland compared; the integration of the Irish; the growth and decline of the Catholic Church; Scotland Orange and Protestant; the Post-War Kirk; factionalism in the conservative Presbyterian churches; the failure of the charismatic movement in Scotland; Samye Ling and Buddhism; Findhorn and New Age spirituality; Scots Muslims; and arguments over the ordination of women and gay rights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Search for a Common Identity' explores the process by which Scottish Baptists came to recognize the need for a union of Baptist churches in Scotland prior to 1869. This book identifies the major leaders in each of the three main Baptist streams in the early nineteenth century and shows how they came to the conviction that it was important for them to establish a common identity. At the heart of their unity was an enthusiasm for evangelism. The Baptist Home Missionary Society was formed in 1827. Its early successes demonstrated the wisdom of cooperation between the different Baptist agencies in Scotland. There had been three attempts to form a union of churches that failed because differences of perspective could not be reconciled. The principal achievement of the 1869 Baptist Union was in enabling Baptists with different theological opinions to come together to promote common practical objectives. In short, a shared sense of purpose led to the growth and establishment of the Baptist Union of Scotland.
