Download or read book For the Union of Evangelical Christendom written by Allen C. Guelzo and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Episcopalians have long prided themselves on their love of consensus and their position as the church of American elites. They have, in the process, often forgotten that during the nineteenth century their church was racked by a divisive struggle that threatened to tear apart the very fabric of the Episcopal Church. On one side of this struggle was a powerful and aggressive Evangelical party who hoped to make the Episcopal Church into the democratic head of "the sisterhood of Evangelical Churches" in America; on the other side was the Oxford Movement, equally powerful and aggressive but committed to a range of Romantic principles which celebrated disillusion and disgust with evangelicalism and democracy alike. The resulting conflict--over theology, liturgy, and, above all, culture--led to the schism of 1873, in which many Evangelicals left the church to form the Reformed Episcopal Church. For the Union of Evangelical Christendom tells this largely forgotten story using the case of the Reformed Episcopalians to open up the ironic anatomy of American religion at the turn of the century. Today, as the Episcopal Church once again finds itself enmeshed in cultural and religious crisis, the remembrance of a similar crisis a century ago brings an eerily prophetic ring to this remarkable work of cultural and religious history.

Download or read book Orthodox Anglican Identity written by Charles Erlandson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-04-28 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the postmodern world we inhabit is highly fragmented, contested, and conflicted, we all have one thing in common: we are experiencing identity crises. Religious traditions are not immune to these crises, and orthodox Anglicans have been experiencing their own issues with identity since the 2003 consecration of an openly homosexual man. Orthodox Anglicans want to say who they are as both orthodox and Anglican, but they are also finding it difficult to articulate a clear and coherent identity, especially an Anglican one. This orthodox Anglican pursuit of a renewed sense of self in a complex and fragmented world is a microcosm of our postmodern context, and an examination of their quest holds enticing clues to our own urgent searches for meaning and identity. Think of this book as a kind of story: the story of a worldwide church who, when its identity was threatened, took counsel together to renew and revitalize its sense of self. In the process, it not only faced many dangers and difficulties but also learned much about who it was and who it wanted to be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents the Episcopal Church's developing focus on baptism within the context of the liturgical movement, the emerging understanding of the eucharist, prayer book revision, and the confirmation dilemma. Drawing on historical and contemporary sources, the author presents a credible case in support of her belief that a baptismal ecclesiology is emerging from these events that have enabled people to accept a radically different initiatory pattern in the church. This book exhibits clarity on the issues discussed with the support of solid scholarship and lucid writing.

The Crisis and Its Results. "For more than a third of a century, the Evangelical Party have been talking of doing something;... this is the first attempt at decisive action." It was indeed action, born of God through prayer and the constant looking to Him for guidance. To one not personally engaged in these stirring days of 1873, so fraught with pain to him who, under God, was the founder of our denomination, and days so closely in touch with the Great Head of the Church, through whom the work came, it is like standing on sacred ground. We can simply endeavor to give, as nearly as possible, a clear portrayal of what others have passed on to us, and as we look back over our quarter century of life, we may thank God for our heritage, and pray that our ship of state may be guided by God's hand, clasping the earthly hands within Ilis own, and making His servants well trained and fitted to carry forward the work entrusted to their care. As we read of the events as they occurred during the fall of 1873, how surely and clearly we see God's leading. Truly, "God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform." Can we doubt, as we recall the history of this time, the need for such a Church as ours, for such a haven of rest for the storm-tossed souls of those who had so bravely contended for the Truth as they saw and believed it? (Jan we not reverently feel that, just as the pulsating, throbbing human life of the world was ripe for the coming of the Saviour of mankind, so also, "when the fulness of the time was come," God prepared a Church, a home of peace, for a people who so long had vainly sought an abiding place where they might "worship Him in spirit and in truth?" What was it that animated the hearts of the reformers, that sent...

Download or read book Episcopal Reform and Politics in Early Modern Europe written by Jennifer Mara DeSilva and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2012-09-18 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tumultuous period of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries when ecclesiastical reform spread across Europe, the traditional role of the bishop as a public exemplar of piety, morality, and communal administration came under attack. In communities where there was tension between religious groups or between spiritual and secular governing bodies, the bishop became a lightning rod for struggles over hierarchical authority and institutional autonomy. These struggles were intensified by the ongoing negotiation of the episcopal role and by increased criticism of the cleric, especially during periods of religious war and in areas that embraced reformed churches. This volume contextualizes the diversity of episcopal experience across early modern Europe, while showing the similarity of goals and challenges among various confessional, social, and geographical communities. Until now there have been few studies that examine the spectrum of responses to contemporary challenges, the high expectations, and the continuing pressure bishops faced in their public role as living examples of Christian ideals.
