Book The Christian Religion in the Study and the Street  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Christian Religion in the Study and the Street Classic Reprint written by James Hope Moulton and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Religion in the Study and the Street The present volume of my brother's papers and lectures owes its existence to a belief that those who knew him and valued him as a teacher would not desire that any of his work should remain unpublished or relatively inaccessible. Rightly or wrongly, it was felt that the very lightness of his touch, the irrepressible gaiety of his presentation of things, and the informality of his style were calculated to obtain for him a hearing from some who would turn away from a more solemn treatment as too dull; while others will discern that learning need not be ponderous in order to be profound, and that scintillating scholarship is no impossible contradiction. Moreover there was the impression that even in those matters where there was no pretence to originality, a pronouncement from one who had gained so distinguished a place in the world of scholarship might carry a degree of weight and conviction which would be entirely lacking from an identical pronouncement coming through other channels. This explains not only the publication of these varied papers, but also why they are sent forth just as they stand, without any attempt to dress them up in the accepted garb of literary proprieties. Had my brother lived, he would most certainly have made numerous emendations both in substance and in style, for no one was ever less disposed to regard a question as closed, or more ready to welcome new light.

Download or read book Faith on the Avenue written by Katie Day and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a richly illustrated, revelatory study of Philadelphia's Germantown Avenue, home to a diverse array of more than 90 Christian and Muslim congregations, Katie Day explores the formative and multifaceted role of religious congregations within an urban environment. Germantown Avenue cuts through Philadelphia for eight and a half miles, from the affluent neighborhood of Chestnut Hill through the high crime section known as "the Badlands." The congregations along this route range from the wealthiest to the poorest populations in Philadelphia. Some congregants are immigrants who find safety and support in close fellowship, while others are long-time residents whose congregations work actively to provide social services. Cities undergo constant change, and their congregations change with them. As Day observes, some congregations have sprung up in former commercial strips, harboring new arrivals and recreating a sense of home, and others form an anchor for a neighborhood across generations, providing a connection to the past and a hope of stability for the future. Drawing on years of research, in-depth interviews with religious leaders and congregants, and a wealth of demographic data, Day demonstrates the powerful influence cities exert on their congregations, and the surprising and important impact congregations have on their urban environments.

Book God  Grades  and Graduation

Download or read book God Grades and Graduation written by Ilana M. Horwitz and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's widely acknowledged that American parents from different class backgrounds take different approaches to raising their children. Upper and middle-class parents invest considerable time facilitating their children's activities, while working class and poor families take a more hands-off approach. These different strategies influence how children approach school. But missing from the discussion is the fact that millions of parents on both sides of the class divide are raising their children to listen to God. What impact does a religious upbringing have on their academic trajectories? Drawing on 10 years of survey data with over 3,000 teenagers and over 200 interviews, God, Grades, and Graduation (GGG) offers a revealing and at times surprising account of how teenagers' religious upbringing influences their educational pathways from high school to college. GGG introduces readers to a childrearing logic that cuts across social class groups and accounts for Americans' deep relationship with God: religious restraint. This book takes us inside the lives of these teenagers to discover why they achieve higher grades than their peers, why they are more likely to graduate from college, and why boys from lower middle-class families particularly benefit from religious restraint. But readers also learn how for middle-upper class kids--and for girls especially--religious restraint recalibrates their academic ambitions after graduation, leading them to question the value of attending a selective college despite their stellar grades in high school. By illuminating the far-reaching effects of the childrearing logic of religious restraint, GGG offers a compelling new narrative about the role of religion in academic outcomes and educational inequality"--

Book The Thing about Religion

Download or read book The Thing about Religion written by David Morgan and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2021-03-19 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Common views of religion typically focus on the beliefs and meanings derived from revealed scriptures, ideas, and doctrines. David Morgan has led the way in radically broadening that framework to encompass the understanding that religions are fundamentally embodied, material forms of practice. This concise primer shows readers how to study what has come to be termed material religion—the ways religious meaning is enacted in the material world. Material religion includes the things people wear, eat, sing, touch, look at, create, and avoid. It also encompasses the places where religion and the social realities of everyday life, including gender, class, and race, intersect in physical ways. This interdisciplinary approach brings religious studies into conversation with art history, anthropology, and other fields. In the book, Morgan lays out a range of theories, terms, and concepts and shows how they work together to center materiality in the study of religion. Integrating carefully curated visual evidence, Morgan then applies these ideas and methods to case studies across a variety of religious traditions, modeling step-by-step analysis and emphasizing the importance of historical context. The Thing about Religion will be an essential tool for experts and students alike. Two free, downloadable course syllabi created by the author are available online.

  • Author : Paul D Numrich
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2009-08-13
  • ISBN : 0199888965
  • Pages : 185 pages

Download or read book The Faith Next Door written by Paul D Numrich and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-08-13 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The religious landscape of the United States has changed dramatically in recent decades. How are Christians relating to their Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, and other new religious neighbors? Using local examples, The Faith Next Door covers the gamut of Christian responses to America's multireligious reality. The book also examines how the events of September 11, 2001 have shaped Christian approaches to believers from other faiths, from engaging in dialogue to hoping for conversion. Here Christian theology meets the multireligious real world, with multiple results suggestive of national trends. The Faith Next Door will appeal to Christians from all denominations and perspectives who seek models for relationships in the diverse contemporary context. It will also inform non-Christian readers and general observers of trends in American religion about the variety of local Christian responses to other religions.
