Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Standing Against the Whirlwind is a history of the Evangelical party in the Episcopal Church in nineteenth-century America. A surprising revisionist account of the church's first century, it reveals the extent to which evangelical Episcopalians helped to shape the piety, identity, theology, and mission of the church. Using the life and career of one of the party's greatest leaders, Charles Pettit McIlvaine, the second bishop of Ohio, Diana Butler blends institutional history with biography to explore the vicissitudes and tribulations of evangelicals in a church that often seemed inhospitable to their version of the Gospel. This gracefully written narrative history of a neglected movement sheds light on evangelical religion within a particular denomination and broadens the interpretation of nineteenth-century American evangelicalism as a whole. In addition, it elucidates such wider cultural and religious issues as the meaning of millennialism and the nature of the crisis over slavery.

Book excerpt: Following the American Revolution, the majority of Connecticut's religious societies tore down their boxy eighteenth-century meetinghouses and replaced them with something totally different: spired churches with an elaborate entrance portico on one of the shorter facades. These new buildings signaled a change in how these Christians conceptualized worship space, and in their fundamental understanding of the relationship between the spiritual and material aspects of their lives. Because these new churches evoked a much-beloved myth of tightly-bound communities sharing democratic values and faith in God, they have often been romanticized as emblems of a bygone era of pastoral serenity. Yet, New England of the early nineteenth century--and its religious life in particular--was anything but tranquil. Revivalism, evangelicalism, and religious pluralism meshed with social, economic, and political dislocation to create a volatile period in which Christianity's place was uncertain. This study argues that religious belief and practice, altered in substance and even more so in style by evangelicalism, revival, and a pervasive culture of sensibility, called for new notions of worship. These new buildings helped individuals and congregations regain their equilibrium and developed their spiritual sensibilities and sense of community. They also soothed republican concerns about the need for a religious populace and were important signs of civility and refinement. As the most striking buildings in many Connecticut towns, these churches tell us what citizens of the early republic thought was important, and what they wanted visitors to find remarkable in a distinctive American landscape.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of Church Life in Colonial Connecticut: Being the Story of the Transplanting of the Church of England Into Forty-Two Parishes of Connecticut, With the Assistance of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel The celebration was opened by the Missionary Commit tee Of the Diocese, Rev. Storrs O. Seymour chairman. A service was held in Trinity Church, New Haven, con ducted by the Bishop, at which memorial addresses were made by the Bishop, Dr. Lloyd, and the Rev. Mr. Bodley of New Britain. On Thursday the Junior Department of the Woman's Auxiliary of the Diocese held a meeting of the Inter Parochial Missions study-class, in Christ Church, Bridge port. Holy Communion was celebrated at nine O'clock, followed by the reading of historical papers from the forty two parishes of Colonial origin. Mrs. Colt, President of the Auxiliary, presided and much of interest was elicited. A luncheon was then served in bounteous hospitality to three hundred guests. An exhibition of Colonial and other Church relics of great value and unusual interest then fol lowed. At two-thirty the people reassembled in the church for a Thanksgiving service. A jubilee procession of the Bishop and clergy of the Diocese, together with banner bearers from each of the Colonial parishes, preceded the solemn Offering of prayer and praise. Addresses commemorative in character were made by the Bishop, Dr. Hart, and Dr. Lloyd. Two descendants from two of the prominent Colonial clergy were present in the chancel: the Rev. Samuel F ermor Jarvis, grandson of Abraham Jarvis, second Bishop of Connecticut, and Rector Of Brooklyn, Conn, the last parish organized prior to the Revolution; and Arch deacon Johnson, great-grandson of Samuel Johnson, one of the pioneers Of Episcopacy in Connecticut. On Friday the Daughters of the King and the Girls' Friendly held a joint service in Christ Church, Hartford, while on Saturday the Sunday School Auxiliary held its service in Trinity Church of the same place. Nearly every Sunday School of the Diocese was represented by a delega tion and a banner. A thousand children were gathered and the occasion was an inspiring one. The Brotherhood of St. Andrew also observed the occa sion in their annual meeting in New Haven on Saturday and Sunday.
