Book excerpt: ‘Ridiculously enjoyable’ Tom Holland A Book of the Year for The Times, Mail on Sunday and BBC History Magazine The ‘Mermaid of Morwenstow’ excommunicated a cat for mousing on a Sunday. When he was late for a service, Bishop Lancelot Fleming commandeered a Navy helicopter. ‘Mad Jack’ swapped his surplice for leopard skin and insisted on being carried around in a coffin. And then there was the man who, like Noah’s evil twin, tried to eat one of each of God’s creatures… In spite of all this they saw the church as their true calling. These portraits reveal the Anglican church in all its colourful madness.

Download or read book God s Ambassadors written by E. Brooks Holifield and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2007-09-25 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In God's Ambassadors E. Brooks Holifield masterfully traces the history of America's Christian clergy from the seventeenth to the twenty-first century, analyzing the changes in practice and authority that have transformed the clerical profession. Challenging one-sided depictions of decline in clerical authority, Holifield locates the complex story of the clergy within the context not only of changing theologies but also of transitions in American culture and society. The result is a thorough social history of the profession that also takes seriously the theological presuppositions that have informed clerical activity. With alternating chapters on Protestant and Catholic clergy, the book permits sustained comparisons between the two dominant Christian traditions in American history. At the same time, God's Ambassadors depicts a vocation that has remained deeply ambivalent regarding the professional status marking the other traditional learned callings in the American workplace. Changing expectations about clerical education, as well as enduring theological questions, have engendered a debate about the professional ideal that has distinguished the clerical vocation from such fields as law and medicine. The American clergy from the past four centuries constitute a colorful, diverse cast of characters who have, in ways both obvious and obscure, helped to shape the tone of American culture. For a well-rounded narrative of their story told by a master historian, God's Ambassadors is the book to read.

Book excerpt: It profiles the lives of Jeremy Talyor, George Walker, Jonathan Swift, Thomas Percy, Richard Mant, William Alexander and William Shaw Kerr. These giants of the faith had a considerable influence on the Church of Ireland, providing much needed leadership and leaving an enduring legacy. Canon Long explains, "Each of them accepted the duties, responsibilities and opportunities of leadership and selflessly spent himself in the pursuit of causes in which he believed and by his example encouraged and persuaded his people to follow his lead. They were intelligent men able to discern that what is true is true and that what is false is false and people recognised that they were both perceptive and courageous. "Great men are they who see that spiritual is stronger than any material force that thought rules the world." (Emerson) These seven understood that and applied this philosophy and for that reason have earned recognition, appreciation and gratitude."

Note No modern treatment of the subject of ministerial depression is more full of pathos and suggestiveness than that which is to be found in a sermon by F. W. Robertson upon the despondency of Elijah (Sermons, ii. pp. 73 f.). Every word comes pulsing from the inmost heart of the speaker. A few sentences may give an impression of its general purport, but it should be carefully studied as a whole. 'We are fearfully and wonderfully made. Of that constitution, which in our ignorance we call union of soul and body, we know little respecting what is cause and what is effect. We would fain believe that the mind has power over the body, but it is just as true that the body rules the mind. Causes apparently the most trivial: a heated room--want of exercise--a sunless day--a northern aspect--will make all the difference between happiness and unhappiness, between faith and doubt, between courage and indecision.'... 'What greater minds like Elijah's have felt intensely, all we have felt in our own degree. Not one of us but what has felt his heart aching for want of sympathy. We have had our lonely hours, our days of disappointment, and our moments of hopelessness--times when our highest feelings have been misunderstood, and our purest met with ridicule. Days when our heavy secret was lying unshared, like ice upon the heart. And then the spirit gives way: we have wished that all were over--that we could lie down tired, and rest like the children, from life--that the hour was come when we could put down the extinguisher on the lamp, and feel the last grand rush of darkness on the spirit.' After tracing with extraordinary insight the Divine treatment of Elijah's case by the administration of' food, rest, and exercise, ' by the healing influences of..
