  • Borden Parker Bowne: the First Thoroughgoing Personalist
    Methodist History, 36:1 (October 1997) BORDEN PARKER BOWNE: THE FIRST THOROUGHGOING PERSONALIST RUFUS BURROW, JR. Personalism is the first systematic American philosophy' associated with a single institution, viz., Boston University. In addition, its chief early pro­ genitors were primarily affiliated with the Methodist Episcopal Church. Most of these were white males, with Georgia Harkness ( 1891-1974) as the most outstanding female representative. Martin Luther King, Jr., is the African American generally associated with this tradition, although John Wesley Edward Bowen (1855-1933), a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, was actually the first African American to study personalism under Borden P. Bowne and Henry C. Sheldon at Boston University. We have heard little about Personalism since the late 1960s. This is due partly to the retirement and deaths of its chief representatives and the fact that their students have not taken the personalistic mantle and forged ahead. However, there are periodic signs of a resurgent interest in personalistic phi­ losophy, theology, and ethics. In this essay I introduce the present generation to the first systematizer of American Personalism, Borden Parker Bowne (1847-1910). I shall discuss some of Personalism's chief tenets, the background of Bowne, persons who influenced his development, his influence on others, and his stance on major social issues. Personalism Personalism is any philosophy for which PERSON2 is the dominant or fundamental reality, and for which the person is the highest-not the only­ intrinsic value. There are at least a dozen types of personalisms, ranging from the most abstract and least typical form, i.e., the atheistic personalism of J.

  • Prayer and the Common Life by Georgia Harkness
    Prayer and the Common Life return to religion-online Prayer and the Common Life by Georgia Harkness Georgia Harkness was educated at Cornell University, Boston University School of Theology, studied at Harvard & Yale theological seminaries and at Union Theological Seminary of New York. She has taught at Elmira College, Mount Holyoke, and for twelve years was professor of applied theology at Garrett Biblical Institute. In 1950 she became professor of applied theology at the Pacific School of Religion, in Berkeley, California. Published by Abingdon Press, New York, Nashville. Copyright by Stone & Pierce 1968. The material was prepared for Religion Online by Ted & Winnie Brock. Dr. Harkness discusses first the relation of prayer to the basic structures of Christian faith. The second section book deals with ways of praying and the third with the psychological and social aspects of prayer. Introduction A new order of peace and justice, abatement of economic and racial tension, the banishment of ignorance, poverty, and disease will not come about solely through prayer. Nevertheless, without the spiritual and moral resources which prayer exists to heighten, the action required for dealing with such issues is likely to go on being as limited and as misdirected by self-interest as we now see it. Part 1: The Foundations of Prayer Chapter 1: Prayer and Christian Belief There is no possibility of prayer unless it can be seen to make sense. Our first task, therefore, is to ask how it fits in with the rest of Christian belief. Dr. Harkness discusses prayer in several theological forms: 1. God is personal; 2.
