Rediscovering an Evangelical Heritage

A Tradition and Trajectory of Integrating Piety and Justice

By: Donald W. Dayton

This book, widely regarded as groundbreaking since its publication over thirty-five years ago, sheds light on the more radical and prophetic roots of American evangelicalism and has challenged countless readers to rethink their evangelical heritage. It argues that nineteenth-century American evangelicals held a more mature vision of the faith, for they engaged demanding justice, peace, and social issues--a vision that was betrayed and distorted by twentieth-century neo-evangelicals. The book helps readers understand that the broader origins of American evangelicalism include the social justice concerns of today's church. Featuring new historic photos and illustrations, this edition includes new introductory and concluding chapters and incorporates relevant updates. The previous edition was published as Discovering an Evangelical Heritage.

The Variety of American Evangelicalism

By: Donald W. Dayton

Those labeled as "evangelicals" commonly are assumed to constitute a large and fairly homogeneous segment of American Protestantism. This volume suggests that, in fact, evangelicalism is better understood as a set of distinct subtraditions, each with its own history, organizations, and priorities. The differences among groups are so important that the question arises: Is the term "evangelical" useful at all?

The Full Gospel Assembly (FGA) of Washington, DC, 1907–1934

Creating a Vibrant, Independent Full Gospel Community in the Heart of the District of Columbia

By: Donald W. Kammer

The 1906 earthquake of Pentecostalism at the Azusa Street Mission in Los Angeles, California, sent a jolt to Washington, DC, during 1906–1907. This Washington, DC, shock wave began when a group of women read and acted upon reports in the Azusa Street Mission’s Apostolic Faith newspaper. This event resulted in the creation and development of an influential church in the District of Columbia, Full Gospel Assembly. In a well-researched examination of a little-recognized and nearly forgotten religious community in Washington, DC, retired United States Army chaplain Don Kammer explores the church’s beginnings as part of the early twentieth-century Pentecostal and Charismatic revival. Full Gospel Assembly was an example of an early Pentecostal-evangelistic fusion, a common element in today’s American evangelical religion. Kammer identifies the challenges, successes, and the impact on the surrounding DC community. As he leads others through FGA’s fascinating history, Kammer explains why the story of FGA is important, reflects upon the conflicted definitions of Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity, describes popular malign portraits of holy rollers and tongue talkers, tells the tales of meetings on the Electric Street Railway Line, in theaters, in Parlor Houses, identifies denominational influence, and much more. The Full Gospel Assembly (FGA) of Washington, DC, 1907–1934 is a fascinating and comprehensive examination of the neglected history of an early twentieth-century revival with ties to the 1906 Azusa Street Mission and revival.

Freedom for Obedience

Evangelical Ethics in Contemporary Times

By: Donald G. Bloesch

The Christian ethic...is an ethic that cannot be assimilated into the moral consensus of the wider community.... The way of the cross cannot be reconciled with the way of the world, just as the gospel cannot be conjoined with the laws that gave stability to social order... The thesis of this book is that human justice can never be a substitute for divine justification...but it can be a sign and witness to the justifying grace of God in Jesus Christ. Humanitarian works can never reach the heights of deeds of sacrificial love and mercy, but they can point to this higher righteousness and awaken a thirst for it... We must always be on guard against two perils: the Scylla of legalism and rigorism and Charybdis of antinomianism. An ethics of the divine commandment, by uniting law and grace, the imperative and the indicative, shows how we can live the authentic Christian life in obedience to the highest, which is not a law but a person, not an ideal but the reality of the New Being, the power of crucified love, as we see this in Jesus Christ." - (from Freedom for Obedience)

The American Holiness Movement

A Bibliographic Introduction

By: Donald Dayton

The digital copies of this book are available for free at First Fruit's website. place.asburyseminary.edu/firstfruits The First in a Series of "Occasional Bibliographic Papers of the B. L. Fisher Library" PREFACE This paper, vas first presented to the twenty-fifth annual conference of the American Theological Library Association in June, 1971. Each year the Association attempts to provide a bibliographic paper relating to the theological tradition of the institution at which the annual conference is held. This paper is then printed in the PROCEEDINGS of the Association and serves as a guide for library acquisitions in the member schools. The 1971 Conference was held at Pasadena College, Pasadena, California, a denominational college of the Church of the Nazarene. Dr Genevieve Kelly, then vice-president and program chairman of the Association, requested a paper on the American Holiness Movement. Since so little has been done in this area, I prepared a paper of broader orientation than some in the series in the hope that it could also serve to introduce others to this neglected facet of the American Church. A number of those present at the Conference requested that the paper be made available to a wider readership than that of the PROCEEDINGS of the Association. This booklet is presented in response to those requests. No attempt has been made to revise the paper. Only minor; and primarily stylistic, changes have been made. Local references and the oral style have been retained. The library faculty of the B.L. Fisher Library hope that this paper will be only the first in a series of "Occasional Bibliographic Papers of the B.L. Fisher Library." Such papers would present in similar format other bibliographic projects of faculty and friends of Asbury Theological Seminary. I would like to express appreciation to the Rev. David J Wartluft, executive secretary of the American Theological Library Association, for granting permission to reprint this paper from the PROCEEDINGS; to Mrs. Esther Richter, the library secretary-receptionist, who typed two drafts of this paper from a difficult manuscript; to Mrs. Robert Lyon who prepared the final copy for print- ing; and especially to Mr. Frank Dewey, my student assistant, who checked all the references and did much of the proofreading. I take all responsi- bility for any errors and would be pleased to be informed of any that are noticed. Donald W.
