  • Patterns of Membership and Participation Among British Quakers, 1823 – 2012
    Patterns of Membership and Participation Among British Quakers, 1823 – 2012 JAMES WILLIAM CROAN CHADKIRK A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY School of Theology, Philosophy and Religion Centre for Postgraduate Quaker Studies The University of Birmingham September 2014 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract During the 1850s there was rising concern in the Society of Friends about declining membership. From the 1840s attempts were made to obtain hard statistics on adherence and in the late 20th century another decline again reduced numbers to the level of the 1850s and 1860s. This thesis reviews and analyses data from the middle of the 19th century to 2012, illuminating variation in both membership and participation in church worship and governance. It presents new data on participation in meeting for worship and provides geographical and socio- metric data on the origins of enquiries about Quakerism, providing both a research tool for further work by bringing large volumes of information together and illuminating the ways in which the size and the social structure of the Society of Friends has varied with time.

New light on the Inner Light: An assessment of how Rufus Jones attempted to synthesize Quakerism and modern thought in Social Law in the Spiritual World by Helen Holt Doctor of Philosophy The University of Edinburgh 2019 2 Abstract Concerned by the threat that psychology seemed to pose to Christian belief, Rufus Jones wrote Social Law in the Spiritual World in 1904 to show how this new science would actually lead to a deeper understanding of God. In particular, Jones, an American Quaker, discussed the relationship between humans and God in terms of the Quaker concept of the Inner Light. He argued that the traditional dualistic formulation, which saw the Inner Light as distinct from human nature, was psychologically flawed and that instead it should be understood as describing an inherent relationship between God and humans.

  • Views and Experiences from a Colonial Past to Their Unfamiliar New Surroundings
    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Matthew David Smith Candidate for the Degree: Doctor of Philosophy ____________________________________________ Director Dr. Carla Gardina Pestana _____________________________________________ Reader Dr. Andrew R.L. Cayton _____________________________________________ Reader Dr. Mary Kupiec Cayton ____________________________________________ Reader Dr. Katharine Gillespie ____________________________________________ Dr. Peter Williams Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT "IN THE LAND OF CANAAN:" RELIGIOUS REVIVAL AND REPUBLICAN POLITICS IN EARLY KENTUCKY by Matthew Smith Against the tumult of the American Revolution, the first white settlers in the Ohio Valley imported their religious worldviews and experiences from a colonial past to their unfamiliar new surroundings. Within a generation, they witnessed the Great Revival (circa 1797-1805), a dramatic mass revelation of religion, converting thousands of worshipers to spiritual rebirth while transforming the region's cultural identity. This study focuses on the lives and careers of three prominent Kentucky settlers: Christian revivalists James McGready and Barton Warren Stone, and pioneering newspaper editor John Bradford. All three men occupy points on a religious spectrum, ranging from the secular public faith of civil religion, to the apocalyptic sectarianism of the Great Revival, yet they also overlap in unexpected ways. This study explores how the evangelicalism

    1 Recent Scholarship in Quaker History Compiled in November 2017 Aiken, Guy. "A Service of Love in War Time." Pennsylvania History: A Journal of Mid-Atlantic Studies 84, no. 3 (Summer 2017): 386-391. This is a discussion of Rufus Jones's classic memoir about the American Friends Service Committee during World War I, A Service of Love in War Time. Aiken, Guy. "The American Friends Service Committee's Mission to the Gestapo." Peace & Change 42, no. 2 (April 2017): 209-231. The Night of Broken Glass (November 9–10, 1938) and its aftermath prompted the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), a Quaker organization, to send a three-man delegation to Berlin in December 1938 to intercede with the Nazi government on behalf of Germany's Jews. The delegation quickly learned from German Jewish leaders that emigration was more urgent than relief. It met with two of Reinhard Heydrich's lieutenants at the Gestapo on December 19 and proposed that the AFSC assume control of Jewish and non-Aryan emigration: The AFSC over the next three years would relieve Germany of every Jew who was fit to leave. Heydrich appeared to agree to the Quakers’ proposal. The leader of the AFSC's delegation, the pre-eminent American Quaker, Rufus Jones, thought the Quaker message of love and goodwill had momentarily triumphed over the Nazis’ hate. But evidence surrounding Adolf Eichmann's visit to the Gestapo a month later suggests otherwise. Albun, Zachary A.

Reflections on Yearly Meeting Journal of The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) in Australia Editorial t the Manchester Conference in 1895, William Charles Braithwaite made a suggestion that must have astonished many faithful Quakers – that it was possible that ‘in the fields of music, art and literature and in others, Friends may witness to the Glory of God and advance that Glory by their Aservice.’ Fast forward to Australian Yearly Meeting in 2016, and we find that reports of the meeting in Hobart are largely about the music, the art, the tapestries, visits to art galleries and museums – and even dancing! Our Quaker forebears, if they could have seen us through the mists of time, may have thought that we had gone ‘off message’. But perhaps we are just finding a new medium for the message. Early Quakers never agreed on matters of theology, but at least they had a common language in which to disagree. But modern Australian Quakers come from a variety of religious and secular backgrounds, and we lack a shared language. The society in which we live certainly lacks a common language for discussing those things which give the deepest meaning to our lives. We may be finding new means of communication ‘in the fields of music, art and literature.’ A continuing concern at our Yearly Meetings is how we are to relate to our indigenous peoples and appreciate their culture.

  • Pentecostal Responses to Fundamentalism in the United States, 1906-1943
    Disfellowshiped: Pentecostal Responses to Fundamentalism in the United States, 1906-1943 by Gerald Wayne King A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Philosophy, Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham March 2009 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract This thesis examines the relationship between pentecostalism and fundamentalism in the United States from 1906-1943. Of particular interest is the formation of the National Association of Evangelicals, which combined these two movements (along with holiness churches), though their history was marked by dispute. On closer examination, the two groups held an evangelical heritage in common from the nineteenth century. Like a new species that is introduced into a particular ecological context, new religious movements grow and develop in response to their surrounding environment. This study divides pentecostalism’s growth (particularly that of the Assemblies of God and the Church of God [Cleveland, TN]) into three stages: genesis (the introductory period, 1906-1909), adaptation (the formative period, 1910-1924), and retention (the educational period, 1925-1943).
