Book The Chaplain  Vol  19

Download or read book The Chaplain Vol 19 written by Chaplains And Armed Forces Personnel and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chaplain, Vol. 19: December, 1962 Religious Education. Chapel construction and other supporting costs, compared to salaries for chaplains, would be in the ratio of, perhaps, four to one. Any proposal to reduce the size and scope of these ministries to the Armed Forces would be av poor reflection of concern for the religious and moral welfare of the personnel, and would be done in the face of vast and increasing amounts spent for weapons. Even if some church leaders felt such a scaling-down were desirable, so that the churches might be able to assume the whole burden them selves, it is not likely that such a decision would be, politically feasible. Nor would there be unanimity among the churches, since not all hold the same View regarding the inter-relation of church and state at such points as this. It Often is erroneously held that only the government contributes to the chaplaincy. Today it is a shared responsibility between church and state. The churches, as a part of their ministry to service per: sonnel, bear the cost of training and recruiting chaplain candidates. Chaplains are no longer recruited directly by the Armed Forces. The denominations provide candidates against a requested quota from each service. There is no Obligation to fill this quota. No man serves without the endorsement of his denomination, and that endorsement may be withdrawn, in effect, terminating the chaplain's eligibility to serve. It is at great loss to the denominational work of the churches that they send so many well-qualified ministers to this cooperative effort. Many feel that it is very appropriate that the government share in this loss to the full extent of the support now given. A very Old line of reasoning says that a man should not be required to bring his own weapon or his own food as he serves in the military today. The government should compensate, and make more efficient pro vision, for these needs. It is argued that the government has an even greater Obligation to supply chaplains as a substitute for the pastoral care available to the military man if he were a civilian.

If that can be kept alive - and who can imagine it can be obliterated even by the mass-homogenization of our culture - then the future is not lost, and the present has doors into greatness beyond 'itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Penny Thompson discusses the place of Christianity in Religious Education from 1963. She explores the reasons why the committed teaching of the Christian faith has been slowly undermined, and aims to show that the current state of boththeory and practice is incoherent and unsustainable. Her arguments explore the debates and historical developments in this sector, over the past forty years, and convincingly propose that the way forward to is to recover the teaching of Christianityin an open and self-critical way. OFSTED reports that the level of unsatisfactory staffing in RE is now a matter of 'deep concern'. This book seeks to inspire and motivate those who might not be attracted to RE teaching as a profession, and details suggestions which may help to alter this current state of affairs.

Book The Irish General

Download or read book The Irish General written by Paul R. Wylie and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-10-09 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irish patriot, Civil War general, frontier governor—Thomas Francis Meagher played key roles in three major historical arenas. Today he is hailed as a hero by some, condemned as a drunkard by others. Paul R. Wylie now offers a definitive biography of this nineteenth-century figure who has long remained an enigma. The Irish General first recalls Meagher’s life from his boyhood and leadership of Young Ireland in the revolution of 1848, to his exile in Tasmania and escape to New York, where he found fame as an orator and as editor of the Irish News. He served in the Civil War—viewing the Union Army as training for a future Irish revolutionary force—and rose to the rank of brigadier general leading the famous Irish Brigade. Wylie traces Meagher’s military career in detail through the Seven Days battles, Antietam, Fredericksburg, and Chancellorsville. Wylie then recounts Meagher’s final years as acting governor of Montana Territory, sorting historical truth from false claims made against him regarding the militia he formed to combat attacking American Indians, and plumbing the mystery surrounding his death. Even as Meagher is lauded in most Irish histories, his statue in front of Montana’s capitol is viewed by some with contempt. The Irish General brings this multi-talented but seriously flawed individual to life, offering a balanced picture of the man and a captivating reading experience.

Book Congress s Own

    Book Details:
  • Author : Holly A. Mayer
  • Publisher : University of Oklahoma Press
  • Release : 2021-04-01
  • ISBN : 0806169710
  • Pages : 610 pages

Download or read book Congress s Own written by Holly A. Mayer and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonel Moses Hazen’s 2nd Canadian Regiment was one of the first “national” regiments in the American army. Created by the Continental Congress, it drew members from Canada, eleven states, and foreign forces. “Congress’s Own” was among the most culturally, ethnically, and regionally diverse of the Continental Army’s regiments—a distinction that makes it an apt reflection of the union that was struggling to create a nation. The 2nd Canadian, like the larger army, represented and pushed the transition from a colonial, continental alliance to a national association. The problems the regiment raised and encountered underscored the complications of managing a confederation of states and troops. In this enterprising study of an intriguing and at times “infernal” regiment, Holly A. Mayer marshals personal and official accounts—from the letters and journals of Continentals and congressmen to the pension applications of veterans and their widows—to reveal what the personal passions, hardships, and accommodations of the 2nd Canadian can tell us about the greater military and civil dynamics of the American Revolution. Congress’s Own follows congressmen, commanders, and soldiers through the Revolutionary War as the regiment’s story shifts from tents and trenches to the halls of power and back. Interweaving insights from borderlands and community studies with military history, Mayer tracks key battles and traces debates that raged within the Revolution’s military and political borderlands wherein subjects became rebels, soldiers, and citizens. Her book offers fresh, vivid accounts of the Revolution that disclose how “Congress’s Own” regiment embodied the dreams, diversity, and divisions within and between the Continental Army, Congress, and the emergent union of states during the War for American Independence.
