As the self-sacrificing labors performed and the marked distinction won by the several ministers who served Rader's Lutheran Church so interlap in its History, the incorporation of sketches of their lives in its pages is deemed appropriate. Few country congregations have enrolled so many ministers who have attained such eminent reputations. The biographies were prepared by the writers whose names are attached to the sketches except those transferred from the History of the Tennessee Synod, and in the main the photographs are striking likenesses of the pastors whose biographies are illustrated. PAUL HENKEL. 1754--1825. Paul Henkel was born December 15, 1754, near Salisbury, Rowan County, North Carolina. His parents were Jacob Henkel and Barbara Dieter, whose parents had come from Wurttemberg, Germany. Molested by the Indians, Paul Henkel's parents and other relatives in 1760 traveled under great hardship northward, and settled first in Loudoun County, Virginia, then crossed the Potomac into Maryland, thence traveled westward for safety, and recrossed the Potomac River into Hampshire County, and a year later, continued their journey southward into Hardy County. These journeys were made from fort to fort in pursuit of safety, as protection was found only in palisades connected with these forts. Life in these stockades was like living in a prison, yet Paul Henkel owes his early knowledge of German and English to the fortunate presence of teachers found in them. Other Lutherans had come from New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, to these two counties. In course of a few years the faithful pastor of Hebron Church in Madison County, Rev. John Schwarbach, visited the neighborhood, gathered the Lutherans into congregations, and built...
Download or read book Lutheranism in the Southeastern States 1860 1886 written by Hugh George Anderson and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a regional history. The "Southeastern States" are those states lying south of the Mason-Dixon Line and east of the Mississippi River which held an appreciable number of Lutherans in 1860. They would include Virginia and the present West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee. The dates 1860-1886 are determined by the natural divisions of southern Lutheran history. 1860 is an ideal beginning date since it affords an opportunity to consider southern Lutheranism while it was still a part of an undivided nation. The following years trace the history of ecclesiastical division caused by the war, and then the slow formation of a regional consciousness expressed in synodical cooperation and union. This process culminates in the establishment of the United Synod of the South in 1886. - Preface.

Download or read book Lutherans in America written by and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Lutherans in America is one of mutual influence. From the first small groups of Lutherans to arrive in the colonies, to the large immigrations to the rich heartland of a growing nation, Lutherans have influenced, and been influenced by, America. In this lively and engaging new history, Granquist brings to light not only the varied and fascinating institutions that Lutherans founded and sustained but the people that lived within them. The result is a generous, human history that tells a complete story—not only about politics and policies but also the piety and the practical experiences of the Lutheran men and women who lived and worked in the American context. Bringing the story all the way to the present day and complemented with new charts, maps, images, and sidebars, Granquist ably covers the full range of Lutheran expressions, bringing order and clarity to a complex and vibrant tradition.

Excerpt: ... the American take the place of German consistency of action. But in spite of such a difference, the prospects for the union of American Lutherans are brighter to-day than ever before. All agree in recognizing the Bible as the sole source, rule and standard of faith, accept the Augsburg Confession in its historical sense, and are convinced that the Lutheran Church stands for the most perfect form of religion which has been revealed to us by history. We may mention as a symptom of reapproachment the moderate tone being observed in doctrinal discussions, and also the respectful treatment mutually accorded by the organs of opposing synods. 36. Review of the Extension of the Lutheran Church in America. The Lutheran Church began as a tiny plant. It had small beginnings in two localities: New York and Pennsylvania. Later we notice scattered settlements along the Atlantic Coast as far south as Georgia. Since immigration was largely directed to Pennsylvania, this state has ever recorded the strongest growth of Lutheran churches. In the beginning of the nineteenth century the stream of immigration, crossing the mountains, flowed toward the West, and resulted in strong Lutheran settlements, especially in Indiana and Ohio, where the descendants of Eastern Lutherans (New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia) established themselves. The great immigration of the nineteenth century flooded the country with German settlers. These filled the Eastern church, which had been losing ground by the anglicization of its members, formed new congregations and eventually covered the whole West. Finally the stream of immigration -- then largely composed of people who had settled in the United States -- was directed toward New England. Thus in course of time we find a...
