Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spectacular Career of Rev. Billy Sunday: Famous Baseball Evangelist To the collectors of Sundayana, if such there be, the present volume will recall an earlier effort by the same author, which went to the world under the title The Spectacular Career of Rev. Billy Sunday. At the time, (1913) the volume had at least the modest merit of being a pioneer in the field and of being as near a compilation of authoritative biographical matter as was available to the average reader. Several other books have made their appearance in the interval, and while they have enriched the literature that relates to the evangelist, they have not added materially to the sum total of biographical information. In all that has been written it can not be urged with any degree of assurance that the critical estimate of the man has been fixed with anything like definiteness. But some things have been established by the lapse of four years. One of these facts is that the Rev. W.A. Sunday is important in history, and this quite aside from his teachings or the results attending his efforts. This, which was a question four years ago, is now beyond argument. To fail to appreciate this is to miss, not the genius of the man, but of the American people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Sawdust Trail

Download or read book The Sawdust Trail written by Billy Sunday and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2009-05 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Billy Sunday (1862-1935) was the richest and most influential evangelistic preacher in the first half of the twentieth century. Bringing his brand of manly gospel to millions of Americans nationwide, Sunday connected with his fans through theatrics, conservative theology, and fervent patriotism. Published in the Ladies' Home Journal in 1932 and 1933 and now in book form for the first time, The Sawdust Trail is the only autobiography that this popular preacher ever wrote." "From his childhood in Iowa to his baseball career with National League teams in Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia (he was the fastest runner in baseball of his time) to the challenges of preaching in New York City during his heyday, Sunday tells a story that gives us insight into the history of evangelism in America."--BOOK JACKET.

Book In Rare Form

Download or read book In Rare Form written by W. A. Firstenberger and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 2004-10 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1896 to 1935, the flamboyant and controversial Billy Sunday preached his version of the gospel to millions of people across the nation. In this nontraditional biography of the man regarded by his enthralled fans as God's unconventional messenger to a sinful world, the curator of the Billy Sunday Historic Site Museum recreates Sunday's life through a material culture lens. W. A. Firstenberger views the photographic record and the print record as well as the landscape, structure, and contents of the Sunday home in Winona Lake, Indiana, to give us an intimate view of Sunday and his family. Through an organizational scheme that incorporates memorabilia from childhood (samplers, Civil War badges), baseball (Billy's 1891 Philadelphia contract, scorecards), evangelism (cartoons, books such as Monkeys and Missing Links), social issues (KKK ads endorsing Sunday, his Women's Christian Temperance life membership certificate), life style (Arts and Crafts decorative pieces, extensive photos of the family's Mount Hood bungalow), and family relations (his personal possessions and those of his wife, Nell, and their children), In Rare Form brings together the inconsistencies between Sunday's material world and his spiritual world. Since Sunday might have objected to a materialistic analysis of his life, Firstenberger has allowed him a say: each section of the book begins with an apt quote from Sunday's sermons and writings. Firstenberger also includes appendixes providing detailed information on Sunday's revivals and speaking appearances, his 870,075 documented converts, the members of his evangelistic team, the overall structure of his family, and an extensive bibliography. Acknowledging Sunday's faults and contradictions alongside his heroic accomplishments, the author presents a wryly insightful and innovative perspective on this larger-than-life figure.

Book A Legacy of Preaching  Two Volume Set   Apostles to the Present Day

Download or read book A Legacy of Preaching Two Volume Set Apostles to the Present Day written by Zondervan, and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 934 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Legacy of Preaching, Two-Volume Set--Apostles to the Present Day explores the history and development of preaching through a biographical and theological examination of its most important preachers. Instead of teaching the history of preaching from the perspective of movements and eras, each contributor tells the story of a particular preacher in history, allowing these preachers from the past to come alive and instruct us through their lives, theologies, and methods of preaching. Each chapter introduces readers to a key figure in the history of preaching, followed by an analysis of the theological views that shaped their preaching, their methodology of sermon preparation and delivery, and an appraisal of the significant contributions they have made to the history of preaching. This diverse collection of familiar and lesser-known individuals provides a detailed and fascinating look at what it has meant to communicate the gospel over the past two thousand years. By looking at how the gospel has been communicated over time and across different cultures, pastors, scholars, and homiletics students can enrich their own understanding and practice of preaching for application today. Volume One covers the period from the apostles to the Puritans and profiles thirty preachers including: Origen of Alexandria by Stephen O. Presley John Chrysostom by Paul A. Hartog Augustine of Hippo by Edward L. Smither Gregory the Great by W. Brian Shelton Bernard of Clairvaux by Elizabeth Hoare Francis of Assisi by Timothy D. Holder Saint Bonaventure by G. R. Evans Meister Eckhart by Daniel Farca? John Huss by Mark A. Howell Martin Luther by Robert Kolb John Calvin by Anthony N. S. Lane Jonathan Edwards by Gerald R. McDermott John Wesley by Michael Pasquarello III George Whitefield by Bill Curtis and Timothy McKnight and many more Volume Two covers the period from the Enlightenment to the present day and profiles thirty-one preachers including: Catherine Booth by Roger J.
