Book The Practice of Mission in Egypt

Download or read book The Practice of Mission in Egypt written by Tharwat Wahba and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-31 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most mission studies have focused on the work of Western missionaries going to Majority World countries, with few examining indigenous churches and their relationship with Western mission agencies in practicing mission. This book is a historical study of the relationship between the Evangelical Church in Egypt and the American Presbyterian Mission. Wahba covers from when the missionary work began in 1854 until after the departure of the Mission from Egypt in 1967, and the transfer of all the work to the Egyptian Evangelical Church. Tracing the mission work of Egyptians within Egypt and neighbouring Sudan, Wahba analyses the impact that the relationship with the American Mission had and how it determined the indigenous Church’s practice and perspective of mission.

Book American Evangelicals in Egypt

Download or read book American Evangelicals in Egypt written by Heather J. Sharkey and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1854, American Presbyterian missionaries arrived in Egypt as part of a larger Anglo-American Protestant movement aiming for worldwide evangelization. Protected by British imperial power, and later by mounting American global influence, their enterprise flourished during the next century. American Evangelicals in Egypt follows the ongoing and often unexpected transformations initiated by missionary activities between the mid-nineteenth century and 1967--when the Six-Day Arab-Israeli War uprooted the Americans in Egypt. Heather Sharkey uses Arabic and English sources to shed light on the many facets of missionary encounters with Egyptians. These occurred through institutions, such as schools and hospitals, and through literacy programs and rural development projects that anticipated later efforts of NGOs. To Egyptian Muslims and Coptic Christians, missionaries presented new models for civic participation and for women's roles in collective worship and community life. At the same time, missionary efforts to convert Muslims and reform Copts stimulated new forms of Egyptian social activism and prompted nationalists to enact laws restricting missionary activities. Faced by Islamic strictures and customs regarding apostasy and conversion, and by expectations regarding the proper structure of Christian-Muslim relations, missionaries in Egypt set off debates about religious liberty that reverberate even today. Ultimately, the missionary experience in Egypt led to reconsiderations of mission policy and evangelism in ways that had long-term repercussions for the culture of American Protestantism.

Download or read book From Mission to Modernity written by Paul Sedra and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-03-30 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this pioneering account of Egyptian educational history, Paul Sedra describes how the Egyptian state under Muhammad Ali Pasha sought to forge a new relationship with children during the nineteenth century. Through the introduction of modern forms of education, brought to Egypt by evangelical missions, the state aimed to ensure children's loyal service to the state, whether through conscription or forced labour. However, these schemes of educational reform, most prominently Joseph Lancaster's monitorial system, led to unforeseen consequences as students in Egypt's new modern schools resisted efforts to control their behaviour in creative and complex ways, and these acts of resistance themselves led to new forms of political identity. Tracing the development of a distinctly Egyptian 'modernity', From Mission to Modernity is indispensable for all those interested in Egyptian history and the history of modern education and reform.

Book The American Mission in Egypt

Download or read book The American Mission in Egypt written by Andrew Watson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Mission in Egypt: 1854 to 1896 Rev. J. R. Alexander, D. D., kindly furnished me With various Mission Reports and other papers connected with earlier efforts to bring the Gospel to Egypt. 1 am also under great obligations to my colleague, the Rev. W. Harvey, D. D., for reading the whole manuscript and giving me valuable aid. It was not until the vacation of 1893 that I was able to make a beginning of the work of writing during the month I spent in Ramleh. The following year the Mission allowed me to go to a cooler climate for a few months and thus I was able to make considerable progress. Little, however, was added during the brief vacation of 1895. The past summer, however, I spent about four months with slight interruptions at the History and brought it down to the end of 1894 - the copying being done mostly by my wife, in the course of which she was often able to make important suggestions. It is due to her to say that without her stimulus and aid I doubt if the work had ever been finished. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Conflict  Conquest  and Conversion

Download or read book Conflict Conquest and Conversion written by Eleanor Tejirian and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conflict, Conquest, and Conversion surveys two thousand years of the Christian missionary enterprise in the Middle East within the context of the region's political evolution. Its broad, rich narrative follows Christian missions as they interacted with imperial powers and as the momentum of religious change shifted from Christianity to Islam and back, adding new dimensions to the history of the region and the nature of the relationship between the Middle East and the West. Historians and political scientists increasingly recognize the importance of integrating religion into political analysis, and this volume, using long-neglected sources, uniquely advances this effort. It surveys Christian missions from the earliest days of Christianity to the present, paying particular attention to the role of Christian missions, both Protestant and Catholic, in shaping the political and economic imperialism of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Eleanor H. Tejirian and Reeva Spector Simon delineate the ongoing tensions between conversion and the focus on witness and "good works" within the missionary movement, which contributed to the development and spread of nongovernmental organizations. Through its conscientious, systematic study, this volume offers an unparalleled encounter with the social, political, and economic consequences of such trends.
