Opis

This book is a handbook on the history of Protestantism in the United States. Part One will look at broad Protestant movements, including revivals, social movements, and the evangelical versus social gospel debate that has raged at least from the time of the Civil War until today. Included in this section are topics such as the Great Awakening, the Great Revival, Protestantism in the Civil War, the Temperance Movement, and the rise of the "New Evangelicalism." Part Two focuses on Protestant history through the prism of the Protestant denominations, including their (mostly) European roots. Denominations discussed include Anabaptists, Anglican (Episcopal) Church, Baptists, Lutherans, Methodists, the Pentecostal Movement, Presbyterians, and the United Church of Christ. Along the way, the book will also examine issues that bind most Protestants together, and issues that separate Protestants.
