The power of God came down, and one universal cry for mercy was heard all through the vast concourse of people. Some fell prostrate on the ground; others, rising to fly from the scene, fell by the way. Hundreds were crying for mercy all over the encampment, while the rejoicings of heaven-born souls and the shouts of victory over the powers of darkness were heard all through the crowd and surrounding 'grove. At the close of the sermon Mr. Dougherty turned to Mr. Bennett, and, with uplifted hands and streaming eyes, begged him, in God's name, always to preach a free and full salvation by grace through faith. The scene, said George Clark, who was an eye-witness, was overwhelming, and beggared all description. At a camp-meeting held in Darlington District, in 1805, the assembled rowdies perpetrated enormities over which it is necessary, even at this distant day, to draw a veil. On Sunday, when fully reenforced and roving about in a large pine-forest which surrounded the tents, it came to pass, under the preaching of the Rev. James Jenkins, famous through all the country for having a stir and a shout, that a lady in the congregation began to praise God aloud. From every point of the compass they came thundering into camp with the tramp of a herd of buffaloes, thus producing a scene of the utmost tumult and confusion. The lady had by this time become quiet, and every thing seemed to indicate that the time had come for Mr. Dougherty to launch a thunderbolt. He accordingly arose and said: "I desire very much to engage your attention for a short time; and as I am aware of your impatience, I propose, as a sort of compromise with you, to waive all the usual introductory services an...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1770 there were fewer than 1,000 Methodists in America. Fifty years later, the church counted more than 250,000 adherents. Identifying Methodism as America's most significant large-scale popular religious movement of the antebellum period, John H. Wigger reveals what made Methodism so attractive to post-revolutionary America. Taking Heaven by Storm shows how Methodism fed into popular religious enthusiasm as well as the social and economic ambitions of the "middling people on the make"--skilled artisans, shopkeepers, small planters, petty merchants--who constituted its core. Wigger describes how the movement expanded its reach and fostered communal intimacy and "intemperate zeal" by means of an efficient system of itinerant and local preachers, class meetings, love feasts, quarterly meetings, and camp meetings. He also examines the important role of African Americans and women in early American Methodism and explains how the movement's willingness to accept impressions, dreams, and visions as evidence of the work and call of God circumvented conventional assumptions about education, social standing, gender, and race. A pivotal text on the role of religion in American life, Taking Heaven by Storm shows how the enthusiastic, egalitarian, entrepreneurial, lay-oriented spirit of early American Methodism continues to shape popular religion today.
