Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pioneers, Preachers and People Mississippi Valley It is now nearly two and twenty years since my father pitched his tent in Prairie-land. I was then a lad. The broad savannas, clad with flowers; the emerald groves, that seemed like islands of the deep; the Father of Waters; the Mother of Floods; the Beautiful River; the fierce, ostrich-like Piasau, whose outline on the bluffs of the Mississippi above Alton commemorates the Indian's dread of the terrible being: these soon took a strong hold of my imagination. From that day to this, the West has been to me a land half of dream and half of reality. To read and hear everything connected with its history became a passion. I have sought in this book to set in order the results of this reading and hearing. It would be almost impossible for me to say what parts came to me from tradition and what from the written page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plea and the Pioneers in Virginia: A History of the Rise and Early Progress of the Disciples of Christ in Virginia, With Biographical Sketches of the Pioneer Preachers Our object in presenting this little volume to the public is threefold. First: The reformation in Penn sylvania and that part of Old Virginia now known as West Virginia has been set forth in Richardson's Memoirs of A. Campbell; Haley's Dawn of the Reformation performs a similar work for Missouri; the reformation in Ohio has been depicted in Hayden's Early History of Disciples in Western Reserve; the pioneer history of the movement in Kentucky is derived from the biographies of John Smith and Jacob Creath; Virginia alone, of all the States that took a prominent part in the restoration of primitive Chris tianity, has up to this time had no written record of her pioneer reformers. Our second reason is: That the younger generation about to become the pillars in the churches of Christ know little if anything of the lives of those grand old men, their forefathers, who fought so nobly the good fight of faith; nor can they justly appreciate the necessity of standing firm on the bedrock principles of the Old Jerusalem Gospel. Third: Doctrinal points are more easily understood when their application is in the concrete than when it is abstract. Our history as a people is the story of our plea in the concrete. During the year 1901 the author embodied some of the material found in this work in a series of essays. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt: ...indomitable Roman who said, Viam aut veniam aut faciam--" I will either find a way, or make a way." These will think that Elder Emmons ought to have found a Christian church or built up one; but they must not charge him too hastily with unfaithfulness. His fault seems to have been, chiefly, lack of energy--" the very head and front of his offending hath this extent, no more." That he has not denied the faith is clearly established by indubitable testimony. In a letter to J. M. Mathes, he himself says, "In uniting as I did with the First Baptist church in Boston, in 1843, J renounced no Reformation principle that I ever held." The pastor of that church, Dr. Neale, says of him: "His reception into my church was owing to my knowledge of his character as a Christian, and not to any sympathy with the peculiar speculative notions in which it was somewhat natural for him to indulge." "For these 'peculiar notions, ' and 'theological speculations' "--says Elder E. in his letter to Elder Mathes--" or for the faith and teaching contained in them, has my name been cast out as evil. I have been looked upon as a speckled bird, having had no call, and no pastoral charge in any Baptist church since 1830. So, for my Reformation principles--nicknamed 'Campbellism'--for their avowal and advocacy, I have been, still am, and expect to be a living martyr." He acknowledges no creed but the Bible; preaches no baptism but that "for the remission of sins;" employs his pen in support of no faith but that "once delivered to the saints;" and wherever in his travels he meets with a congregation of Disciples, with them he fraternizes, advocating their cause. He is still to be regarded, ...

Download or read book Claiming the Call to Preach written by Donna Giver-Johnston and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few debates divide the contemporary church more than the issue of call. The question of who can be called to preach segregates denominations, divides people within churches, and undermines its public witness. Yet, curiously little homiletic attention has been paid to the issue of call. Because the practice of call has not been subjected to critical inquiry, it has taken on power. Power lies hidden in the crevices of the question of who can be called to preach; power lies in the institutional narrative and approved stories of call; power lies in the discordant debates, equally in the stifling silence. Claiming the Call to Preach critically examines the dominant historical narrative that overtly or covertly has exercised its power to keep women from preaching. Donna Giver-Johnston here recovers the histories of four notable female preaching pioneers who affected change in the religious landscape of nineteenth-century America: Jarena Lee, Frances Willard, Louisa Woosley, and Florence Spearing Randolph. These women, diverse in religion, race, class, and culture each told their story of call in distinctive ways that articulated strong and effective rhetorical arguments for ecclesiastical sanction to give them a place in the pulpit. Recovering their rhetorical witness helps to fill in the gaps in the history of preaching in America, contribute to research and pedagogies in the field of homiletics, and provide today's women--and all candidates for ministry--with different theological models and narrative strategies by which to effectively interpret and claim their calls to preach. These women who spoke truth to power help us reimagine a church today that no longer questions the legitimacy of one's call to preach, but endorses previously silenced voices, and is therefore strengthened by women's voices from the pulpit.

Download or read book The Faithful Preacher Foreword by John Piper written by Thabiti M. Anyabwile and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2007-03-02 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The cliché is that those who do not learn from the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them. But Thabiti Anyabwile contends that it is not the mistakes we must study; it is the people who have overcome them. So he presents three of the most influential African-American pastors in American history who can teach us what faithful ministry entails. Lemuel Haynes (1753-1833) reminds pastors that eternity must shape our ministry. Daniel A. Payne (1811-1893) stresses the importance of character and preparation to faithful shepherding. And Francis J. Grimké (1850-1937) provides a vision for engaging the world with the gospel. While they are from the African-American tradition, they, like all true saints, belong to all Christians of every background and era. Distinctive for its use of rare and out-of-print messages, Anaybwile's work is valuable as a reference as well as a devotional resource.
