Book Description
Excerpt from The Life and Letters of Rev. Lewis Alfred Wickes: Being a Brief Narrative of His Life, and the Letters Connected With His Labors in Revivals of Religion in Northern New York In compliance with the urgent solicitations of many respected and dear friends of the deceased L.A. Wickes, and hoping to benefit those now living, who once enjoyed and were benefited by his life, and also as his memory is still sacred, that it may continue to be cherished by children and grandchildren. It is attempted in a brief narrative to present some of the arduous labors selected from numerous letters concerning the successful revivals of religion where God in His kind providence marked out the path for our faithful and beloved friend to labor. Being well aware of the difficulties, at this late hour, to do justice to what the Lord wrought by His instrumentality, yet it is desired to encourage others to trust in the Lord, as His servant did, knowing the promises are sure to the obedient in His blessed cause. We therefore send out some incidents of a faithful life, praying that to the inquiry "Who is on the Lord's side?" many may respond as did the subject of this memoir, unreservedly "Here Lord am I. What wilt thou have me to do?" About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A Country Strange and Far
Author: Michael C. McKenzie
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 149622924X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 447
Book Description
In 1834 the weary missionary Jason Lee arrived on the banks of the Willamette River and began to build a mission to convert the local Kalapuya and Chinook populations to the Methodist Church. The denomination had become a religious juggernaut in the United States, dominating the religious scene throughout the mid-Atlantic and East Coast. But despite its power and prestige and legions of clergy and congregants, Methodism fell short of its goals of religious supremacy in the northwest corner of the continent. In A Country Strange and Far Michael C. McKenzie considers how and why the Methodist Church failed in the Pacific Northwest and how place can affect religious transplantation and growth. Methodists failed to convert local Native people in large numbers, and immigrants who moved into the rural areas and cities of the Northwest wanted little to do with Methodism. McKenzie analyzes these failures, arguing the region itself--both the natural geography of the place and the immigrants' and clergy's responses to it--was a primary reason for the church's inability to develop a strong following there. The Methodists' efforts in the Pacific Northwest provide an ideal case study for McKenzie's timely region-based look at religion.
