Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Discourse Commemorative of Rev. Rufus Anderson, D.D., LL. D: Late Corresponding Secretary of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, Together With Addresses at the Funeral Two hundred years take us back to the time of the Covenanters, and to heaths of Scotland red with the blood of witnesses for Christ's cross and crown. The atrocities of Claverhouse and his dragoons prepared the minds of a God-fearing company in Argyleshire for migration to the north of Ireland. In the famous siege of Londonderry it was Protestant Scotch colonists whose bravery held that small city against King James's twenty thousand men, who for four months invested the place. The happy revolution effected by William of Orange, however, left them still subject to various annoyances, such as paying tithes toward a distasteful establishment; and before many years passed, a company of sixteen men with their families sailed for New England. Their first winter, a severe one, was from necessity spent on shipboard in the harbor of Portland, Maine. They then came round by the way of the Merrimac to Haverhill in Massachusetts; and thence groped through an untrodden wilderness to a spot in New Hampshire, since known as Londonderry. That was one hundred and sixty-one years ago. In that little group of sixteen men, soon joined by others from the Province of Ulster, was James Anderson, the great-grandfather of Dr. Rufus Anderson. To no other settlement perhaps in our country did there come immigrants more homogeneous, more strictly religious, more deliberate in forming their opinions, or more inflexible in maintaining them. Neither poverty-stricken nor wealthy, they prized their faith and freedom above all treasures. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the career of Rufus Anderson, the central figure in the formation and implementation of missionary ideology in the middle decades of the nineteenth century. Corresponding Secretary of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions from 1832 to 1866, Anderson effectively set the terms of debate on missionary policy on both sides of the Atlantic and indeed long after his death. In telling his story, Harris also speaks to basic questions in nineteenth-century American history and in the relationship between American culture and the cultures of what later came to be known as the third world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many evangelical congregations have moved away from hymns and hymnals, these were once central fixtures in the evangelical tradition. This book examines the role and importance of hymns in evangelicalism, not only as a part of worship but as tools for theological instruction, as a means to identity formation, and as records of past spiritual experiences of the believing community. Written by knowledgeable church historians, Wonderful Words of Life explores the significance of hymn-singing in many dimensions of American Protestant and evangelical life. The book focuses mainly on church life in the United States but also discusses the foundational contributions of Isaac Watts and other British hymn writers, the use of gospel songs in English Canada, and the powerful attraction of African-American gospel music for whites of several religious persuasions. Includes appendixes on the American Protestant Hymn Project and on hymns in Roman Catholic hymnals. Contributors: Susan Wise Bauer Thomas E.
