Reclaiming the Oral Tradition of the African Baptist Church
Author: David W. Sparks
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1038312728
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
In a narrative built on groundbreaking research, David W. Sparks traces the history of African Baptists in North America, particularly Nova Scotia, in Reclaiming the Oral Tradition of the African Baptist Church. His goal is to recapture and reclaim the oral tradition that once shaped the theology and spiritual practices of the African Baptist Church in its earliest days. Mr. Sparks defines “oral” as “the practices, customs, beliefs, and folkways of a people and community that are passed on by word-of-mouth over several generations.” As opposed to a collection of items in a catechism of religious and doctrinal statements, oral tradition looks more to the heart and the conversion experience. For example, to obtain salvation, “candidates” are to withdraw to a quiet place to seek the Lord in prayer, and wait to hear from God. They’re expected to persist until they see the blood of Jesus, which is central to salvation in the oral tradition. Running throughout the text are various biblical passages, historical sources, and theological themes that give weight, substance, and relevance to a once dynamic tradition. Mr. Sparks makes the argument that the present moral and spiritual state of the African Baptist Church is the direct result of the loss and abandonment of its religious heritage and oral tradition. It calls, therefore, for a return to that tradition: a call to a renewed focus on salvation, revival, restoration, and hope!

Mormon Women Have Their Say
Author: Sherrie L. M. Gavin
Publisher: Greg Kofford Books
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
The Claremont Women's Oral History Project has collected hundreds of interviews with Mormon women of various ages, experiences, and levels of activity. These interviews record the experiences of these women in their homes and family life, their church life, and their work life, in their roles as homemakers, students, missionaries, career women, single women, converts, and disaffected members. Their stories feed into and illuminate the broader narrative of LDS history and belief, filling in a large gap in Mormon history that has often neglected the lived experiences of women. This project preserves and perpetuates their voices and memories, allowing them to say share what has too often been left unspoken. The silent majority speaks in these records. This volume is the first to explore the riches of the collection in print. A group of young scholars and others have used the interviews to better understand what Mormonism means to these women and what women mean for Mormonism. They explore those interviews through the lenses of history, doctrine, mythology, feminist theory, personal experience, and current events to help us understand what these women have to say about their own faith and lives.
