By invoking their spiritual homeland in heaven, in addition to their earthly residences in Europe, these individuals imagined their place in a Christian tradition that transcended both worldly Chosen Nation Mennonites and Germany in a Global Era 1st edition and state borders. This clashed with the Mennonites' tradition of pacifism. A patchwork of principalities, kingdoms, and coalitions dissected the vast expanse between the Netherlands and the Russian Empire that two decades later would unite to become the German Empire.

The organization of the writing was about as different from mine as you can get, and I felt like the scope of the book was way, way too broad. Post to Cancel. Historian Harold Bender and theologian John Howard Yoder both articulated readings of essentialist readings of history. Later, when Jews tried to flee Europe and find asylum in Canada, they did not receive the same hospitality that my family received. However, there are several unsavory examples of active participation in the Holocaust by individuals of Mennonite ancestry. Western Christianity. The congregational library of the Danzig church contained far more books in Dutch than in any language besides German; the number of Dutch versus German books for the years prior to was nearly equal. Matthew marked it as to-read Jun 27, These groups trace their "true church" status through means other than those generally accepted by Roman Catholicism or Orthodox Christianity, both of which likewise claim to represent the true faith and order of New Testament Christianity. Groups which are derived from the Schwarzenau Brethren, often called German Baptists, while not Chosen Nation Mennonites and Germany in a Global Era 1st edition descended from the 16th-century Anabaptists, are usually considered Anabaptist because their doctrine and practice are almost identical to the doctrine and practice of Anabaptism. As viewed from the beginning or even the middle of the nineteenth century, the development of a specifically German- Mennonite nexus would have seemed just one of many possible outcomes, and in later years, observers continued to find it as surprising as it was new. An "academic" read, no page turner. Where men have caught the Anabaptist vision of discipleship, they have become worthy of that heritage. Eastern Orthodox Church. Although many see the more well-known Anabaptist groups Amish, Hutterites and Mennonites as ethnic groups, only the Amish and the Hutterites today are composed almost totally of descendants of the continental Anabaptists, while among the Mennonites there are Ethnic Mennonites and others who are not. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Some Anabaptists' theology also placed them on a temporal continuum, positing an eternal community of God that stretched from the ancient Israelites to the second coming of Christ. Share this: Twitter Facebook. Upon moving to the United States, they associated with Mennonites and Quakers. The modern-day Brethren movement is a combination of Anabaptism and Radical Pietism. Russian Mennonites, and other groups, came to North America to inspect prospective sites to found new colonies as it became harder to acquire new land Chosen Nation Mennonites and Germany in a Global Era 1st edition Russia. January 10, Anabaptist groups varied widely in their specific beliefs, but the Schleitheim Confession represents foundational Anabaptist beliefs as well as any single document can. While German nationalist Mennonites such as Hinrich van der Smissen portrayed the growing association between their religion and their nationality as natural and almost inevitable, this process was in fact contingent and highly contested. It joined regionalism, localism, religion, and many other forms of affiliation that had been available to Mennonites for centuries and that continued to exist alongside and even within nationalism over the ensuing years. Chosen Nation: Mennonites and Germany in a Global Era At times, I had trouble understanding Goossen's broadly defined term "nationalism," although his report of post-war refugee resettlement for Mennonites from Ukraine helped to clarify the shift from fill-in-the-blank nationalism to Mennonite nationalism. And there were stirrings in the south, among Mennonites in Baden, Bavaria, and Wurttemberg. She wrote about the war as a teenager from her Lancaster County farm. However, in the English-speaking world, it is still used to distinguish the Baptizers more clearly from the Baptistsa Protestant sect that developed later in England.

It is disturbing to consider that this nationalistic exceptionalism still clings to elements of my North American Mennonite communities today. Hardcoverpages. Gordon Meltoned. The number was far higher in other colonies. This is akin to radicalization that might be discussed when exploring the impact of modern foreign policy and military involvement. Like many a would-be immigrant, he sought economic opportunity, and his shortwave radio would have painted a picture of prosperity in interwar and wartime Germany. Conrad Grebel, Son of Zurich. This tendency to whitewash our own stories, but also the stories of our ancestors and their communities has potential issues with how Mennonite communities today understand their role as settlers in the North American context. Goossen carefully tracks the way Mennonites in Germany and across the world constructed, proclaimed, revised, and at times contradicted their assertion of a nationalist and racial identity, all to ensure the exclusive well-being of Mennonites in the tumultuous years between the Unification of Germany and refugee resettlement following WWII.

Near the end of winter and looking forward to spring. COVID-19 vaccines are H rolling out and millions have already received their vaccinations or know their turn is soon to come. This issue of JPAC includes a chronicle of COVID-19 events during 2020 and the pandemic’s impact on Amish communities, as seen through mass media coverage aggregated on Erik Wesner’s Amish America website. Woven through his account are about 90 links to news sources organized around themes such as public health outreach to Amish communities, public perceptions—pro and con—of the Amish response to the virus, COVID-19 cases among the Amish, and others. Wesner’s article is must reading for anyone interested in the impact of COVID- 19 on the Amish, on media coverage of Plain communities, and on the nuanced and diverse reactions of the Amish to the pandemic. In addition, this issue’s “Fieldwork and Reflections” section includes the observations of Victor Stoltzfus on COVID-19 and the large Elkhart- LaGrange Amish settlement in northern Indiana. (We expect to include more COVID-related articles in the next issue of JPAC, vol. 2, no. 1, Summer 2021.) Beyond the pandemic, this issue includes a number of articles that will delight aficionados of population studies and those “eggheads” among us who love statistics.

The world is still facing war and rumor of war. Though nearly forty years have passed us by, the Wagoners' report radiates a timely hope for an answer that "takes away the occasion for war." Previously, we have been able to write only in briefest summary of the Primavera decades. This report will surely warm the hearts of all who experienced that period of our history. To those with no experience of it, we hope to give a glimpse and at least some understanding of that time. The Editors January 15, 1991 Com. in Par. 15 Nov 90 4 FOREWORD This is a charming and winsome story of the six month visit of Bob and Shirley Wagoner to the three Bruderhofs in Paraguay, known collectively as Primavera ("springtime" in Spanish).

DeWeese-Boyd: The Nurturing Communities Project The Nurturing Communities Project: Fostering Persistence and Emergence in Intentional Christian Communities By Margie DeWeese-Boyd The concept, praxis, and experience of “community” in America have arguably been stretched thin so as to no longer signify anything substantial. Many, in fact, decry the demise of community even as “buy local” campaigns and the locavore food movement try to reclaim some of its lost ground. Bill McKibben, for instance, bemoans the growing dispersion and disconnection that characterizes a good deal of American life today: “We change religions, spouses, towns, professions with ease … [w]e are not just individualists; we are hyper-individualists.”1 Ours is a culture that readily severs ties, even as it suffers the ramifications of those various dislocations. This American life is a life dispersed: we work ten miles away with people who live twenty miles beyond that, buy food grown a thousand miles away from grocery clerks who live in a different subdivision, date people from the other side of town, and worship with people who live an hour’s drive from one another.… We serve soup to the poor folks on the other side of the tracks, but we don’t know the person on the other side of our fence.

It argues that the separatist heritage of Plain Anabaptism exemplified by PVC represents a viable missionary ecclesiology for an increasingly postmodern context. Most Plain Anabaptist groups have seen considerable growth in recent years, due partly to procreation rates and retention of youth.
