Book excerpt: "The Augustana Synod is the creation of Hasselquist, and its spirit is still Hasselquistian, and with very few exceptions the Synod has, since 1890, accepted little of other influences, being in confession and doctrine the same today as in 1890. But to discredit the work of his coworkers would be unjust. Esbjorn performed an indispensable task as a pioneer; Erland Carlsson, as a diplomat and financial genius, rendered assistance of greatest importance; and Norelius, as the early historian of the Synod, performed a notable service. But had it not been for Hasselquist's labor during nearly forty years, it is likely that there would be no united Swedish Lutheran Church, and the political solidarity of the Swedes might not have been brought about."--Page 232

Download or read book Swedish Men Arguing About God written by Jerome Engseth and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-06-16 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1860 and 1885, Swedish-American immigrant worship was influenced by Pietism and the new religious freedom of America. Controversy about the atonement was catalyzed by the ideas and writings of Paul P. Waldenstrom, which contributed to the development of two new Lutheran synods as well as to two new protestant denominations. Swedish Men Arguing about God provides historical review of this dynamic period, a thoughtful drama (set in 19th-century Sweden) about Waldenstrom's doctrine of the atonement, along with opinion about the status of Pietism in contemporary America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is distinctive about ministry in an immigrant community, and how has it changed or remained the same over the last 150 years?

Download or read book Swedish Exodus written by Lars Ljungmark and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1996-04-01 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "America fever" gripped Sweden in the middle of the nineteenth century, seethed to a peak in 1910, when one-fifth of the world’s Swedes lived in America, cooled during World War I, and chilled to dead ash with the advent of the Great Depression in 1930. Swedish Exodus, the first English translation and revision of Lars Ljungmark’s Den Stora Utvandringen, recounts more than a century of Swedish emigration, concentrating on such questions as who came to America, how the character of the emigrants changed with each new wave of emigration, what these people did when they reached their adopted country, and how they gradually became Americanized. Ljungmark’s essential challenge was to capture in a factual account the broad sweep of emigration history. But often he narrows his focus to look closely at those who took part in this mass migration. Through historical records and personal letters, Ljungmark brings many of these people back to life. One young woman, for example, loved her parents, but loved America more: "I never expect to speak to you in this life. . . . Your loving daughter unto death." Like most immigrants, she never expected to return. Another immigrant wrote back seeking a wife: "I wonder how you have it and if you are living. . . . Are you married or unmarried? If you are unmarried, you can have a good home with me." Ljungmark also focuses closely on some of the leaders: Peter Cassel, a liberal temperance supporter and free-church leader whose community in America prospered; Hans Mattson, a colonel in the Civil War and founder of a colony in Minnesota; Erik Jansson, a book burner, self-proclaimed messiah, and founder of the Bishop Hill Colony; Gustaf Unonius, a student idealist and founder of a Wisconsin colony that faltered. The story of Swedish immigrants in the United States is the story in miniature of the greatest mass migration in human history, that of thirty-five million Europeans who left their homes to come to America. It is a human story of interest not only to Swedes but to everyone.
