Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Early Methodism in Indiana: Including Sketches of Various Prominent Ministers, Together With Narratives of Women Eminent for Piety, Poetry and Song The heroic age of the Methodist Episcopal Church is not ended. The fire still glows on her altars; zeal still flames in her heart. The men who traveled the primeval forests of the West by blazed trees, forded or swam, as occasion required, the numerous and unbridged streams, who often slept under the friendly woods, faring hard and working harder - these heroes of a rough time were the fathers of noble sons. If the sires were heroic, their children are not cowardly. If the fathers laid the foundations, their sons rear the superstructure. The sublime purpose which inaugurated the Methodistic movement still pushes the conquering march of her sacramental host. Her theology maintains its integrity; her worship retains its simplicity; her methods are more direct and efficient than those of any other church; her book of discipline makes no concession to popular sin. She stands as unshaken and unaltered among the opinions and customs of these changeful times as Gibraltar in the midst of the changeful waters.

This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifth Annual Report of the Board of Managers of the Woman's Home Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, for the Year 1885-86 To-day, we have assembled here to extend a cordial greeting to this noble band of eminent Christian ladies, and to welcome them to our homes, to our beautiful house of worship, and to our city, which we think in healthful location and moral status will compare favorably with any city of its size. With open arms and hearts full of love, we give you a happy, loving welcome, trusting that this meeting of Christian ladies will serve to inspire us with new zeal, and thus help us to devise plans that will be the means of bringing increased vigor and usefulness into this branch of Christian work. Judging from the past I feel assured of a grand, brilliant future for this organization. I trust there will be no withered hands in this Society. In the Word of God we are told that our Savior healed the man with a withered hand, and it only speaks of this one man that was thus healed. I have no doubt that there were more people at that time with the same affliction, and I often wonder how many withered hands could be found in our Christian Churches at the present day - hands that hang lifeless by their owner's side, and find nothing to do for the Master. In the mission ary field there is something for every Christian to do. We can not all go as missionaries to foreign lands, but we can help those that go and in this Home Missionary Society we can do a grand, noble work here in our own country, among the foreign people that are flooding our shores. I am fully impressed that the work of this Society in the future will be very largely with the foreign population in our large towns and cities, where thousands of people live that are never seen in the Churches. A pressing need to-day is for Christian workers among these neglected classes of people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twentieth Annual Report of the Woman's Home Mission Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South: Annual Meeting, Held at Asheville, N. C., April 26-May 2, 1906 Western North Carolina is famous throughout our great country for scenery wild enough to be enchanting, yet subdued into a serene beauty that brings balm and peace to the human spirit. To those who know the Carolina mountains, every mood of the year is welcome, for each makes delightful revelations of the changeful beauty that haunts the peaks and valleys and streams. But the first blush of the year's new life seems, indeed, a breaking forth of God's glory in the "Land of the Sky." The balmiest spring weather not only greeted the happy comers to Asheville for the eighth Annual Meeting of the Board, but it lingered throughout the entire week, with only brief showers now and then to make one know that April was not forgetting her time for making the world to blossom. It was too late to find the trailing arbutus - that shy, sweet recluse of the rocks - and too early for the laurel and the rhododendron, but mountain sides and valleys were bright with violets and phlox and dogwood and the gorgeous wild azaleas. A great bunch of galax leaves, sent in one day to the body with the compliments of the Toxaway Company, brought visions of mountain streams and hiding places of beauty; and among the handsome palms in the church, purple lilacs and Easter lilies mingled their richness and purity. Had no flowers been in evidence, they would scarcely have been missed, for Central Church in itself is a joy to the eyes. The exquisite taste in tone and style characterizing the whole interior, decorations and furnishings, makes a fit setting for the windows, which are remarkably beautiful in design and execution. Amid the busy work of the session it was restful and inspiring to look up at the great Gothic windows and have some sublime thought of the Master borne in upon the mind and heart. The windows below the gallery are not less beautiful, and in almost every window is seen some combination of the Easter lily, giving a unity of design most pleasing to the eye and the mind. The congregation may well be proud of their church, with its modern conveniences and equipment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Vintage Book of African American Poetry, editors Michael S. Harper and Anthony Walton present the definitive collection of black verse in the United States--200 years of vision, struggle, power, beauty, and triumph from 52 outstanding poets. From the neoclassical stylings of slave-born Phillis Wheatley to the wistful lyricism of Paul Lawrence Dunbar . . . the rigorous wisdom of Gwendolyn Brooks...the chiseled modernism of Robert Hayden...the extraordinary prosody of Sterling A. Brown...the breathtaking, expansive narratives of Rita Dove...the plaintive rhapsodies of an imprisoned Elderidge Knight . . . The postmodern artistry of Yusef Komunyaka. Here, too, is a landmark exploration of lesser-known artists whose efforts birthed the Harlem Renaissance and the Black Arts movements--and changed forever our national literature and the course of America itself. Meticulously researched, thoughtfully structured, The Vintage Book of African-American Poetry is a collection of inestimable value to students, educators, and all those interested in the ever-evolving tradition that is American poetry.

Download or read book Canadian Methodist Women 1766 1925 written by Marilyn Färdig Whiteley and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian Methodist women, like women of all religious traditions, have expressed their faith in accordance with their denominational heritage. Canadian Methodist Women, 1766-1925: Marys, Marthas, Mothers in Israel analyzes the spiritual life and the varied activities of women whose faith helped shape the life of the Methodist Church and of Canadian society from the latter half of the eighteenth century until church union in 1925. Based on extensive readings of periodicals, biographies, autobiographies, and the records of many women’s groups across Canada, as well as early histories of Methodism, Marilyn Färdig Whiteley tells the story of ordinary women who provided hospitality for itinerant preachers, taught Sunday school, played the melodeon, selected and supported women missionaries, and taught sewing to immigrant girls, thus expressing their faith according to their opportunities. In performing these tasks they sometimes expanded women’s roles well beyond their initial boundaries. Focusing on religious practices, Canadian Methodist Women, 1766-1925 provides a broad perspective on the Methodist movement that helped shape nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century Canadian society. The use and interpretation of many new or little-used sources will interest those wishing to learn more about the history of women in religion and in Canadian society.
