Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Life at the Crossroads tells the story of a Minnesota farm boy who became an inner-city pastor, high-profile denominational executive, and the last president of the world’s most historic seminary (Gettysburg Lutheran). Cooper-White, who is also a commercial pilot and flight instructor, pursued journalism following his ministerial career. In clear and winsome prose, he shares his personal autobiography along with a treasure trove of twentieth-century ecclesiastical history. From facing machine guns in Chile and El Salvador to taking on church controversies over sexuality and ecumenical initiatives, to leading consolidation of two rival seminaries, Cooper-White’s is the story of a cleric who took seriously the call to be a public theologian. The consolidation of the two institutions, which had failed in a half-dozen previous attempts, offers a case study in patient and persistent long-term leadership.

Download or read book Norwegians in Wisconsin written by Richard J. Fapso and published by Wisconsin Historical Society. This book was released on 2013-03-28 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This perennially popular book, now revised and expanded with additional historical photos and documents, offers a concise introduction to Wisconsin's Norwegian immigrants. The narrative examines the mass migration of Norwegians from 1837, when Ole Nattestad became the first Norwegian settler in Wisconsin, to the late nineteenth century, when Norwegian immigration largely came to a close. This volume demonstrates the efforts of immigrants to balance newfound American customs with the most treasured traditions of their homeland. New to this edition are selected letters of Ole Munch Ræder, a scholar sent by the Norwegian government in 1847 to study the American legal system. Ræder visited several Wisconsin cities and villiages and paid special attention to the Norwegian community. His compelling accounts, which appeared in newspapers in Norway, offer a contemporary view of Norwegian life in Wisconsin.

Download or read book Norwegian Religious Pluralism written by Frederick Hale and published by Edwin Mellen Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a historical study of religious transition in Norway and among Norwegian immigrants in the United States and southern Africa. It traces the domestic and Anglo-American factors which by 1900 had changed Norway from a society almost uniformly Lutheran by law and deeply-rooted tradition into one in which many people had only tenuous ties to their established church while tens of thousands of their countrymen became members of nonconformist denominations. These copiously documented findings challenge assumptions which have been axiomatic among historians of Norwegian immigration throughout the twentieth century. They also undermine unproven generalizations about immigrant religiosity made by such prominent historians as Oscar Handlin and Timothy Smith and reproduced uncritically by many of their colleagues.
