Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | Jonathan Edwards: revival as the amazing work of God -- Charles Finney: revival as the reasonable acts of men -- Dwight L. Moody: revival as big business -- Billy Sunday: revival as entertainment -- Aimee Semple McPherson: revival as spectacle. "This work shows how revivalism moved from the Edwardian emphasis on the amazing works of God, as the Puritans would have put it, to the "new methods" of Charles Finney and revival as the reasonable works of man as befits Jacksonian democracy. Later, D.L. Moody concentrated on methodology to such a degree that revivals became big business. "--Provided by publisher |
