Book Description
Excerpt from Experiences of a Backwoods Preacher: Or, Facts and Incidents Culled From Thirty Years of Ministerial Life But while all this is true, there are many incidents in almost any lengthened life that are of sufficient importance to deserve a record. In this chapter I propose to relate a few incidents in my own life before I commence to give the experiences that I have had as a /minister in the backwoods. I was born in the township of Clinton, in the county of Lincoln, Upper Canada, May fourth, eighteen hun dred and nineteen. My parents were both children of U. E. Loyalists, so that on both sides I claim descent from those whose loyalty cost them something, and whose attachment to Britain and her institutions led them to leave good homes in the States and come into the wilderness of Canada to make new homes for themselves, where, under the protection of the British flag, they might be safe, and under the Shade of the maple leaf they might be contented. My father did military duty during the last year of the war of eighteen hundred and twelve, and at the close of the war he was granted land in what was then called the new purchase, on the north of Lake Ontario.

The Supernatural and the Circuit Riders
Author: Rimi Xhemajli
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725269228
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
In The Supernatural and the Circuit Riders, Rimi Xhemajli shows how a small but passionate movement grew and shook the religious world through astonishing signs and wonders. Beginning in the late eighteenth century, early American Methodist preachers, known as circuit riders, were appointed to evangelize the American frontier by presenting an experiential gospel: one that featured extraordinary phenomena that originated from God's Spirit. In employing this evangelistic strategy of the gospel message fueled by supernatural displays, Methodism rapidly expanded. Despite beginning with only ten official circuit riders in the early 1770s, by the early 1830s, circuit riders had multiplied and caused Methodism to become the largest American denomination of its day. In investigating the significance of the supernatural in the circuit rider ministry, Xhemajli provides a new historical perspective through his eye-opening demonstration of the correlation between the supernatural and the explosive membership growth of early American Methodism, which fueled the Second Great Awakening. In doing so, he also prompts the consideration of the relevance and reproduction of such acts in the American church today.
