    Issue 92: America’s 20th Century Evangelical Awakening A New Evangelical Awakening: Did You Know? Interesting and Little Known Facts about America's Mid Century Evangelical Resurgence "Mr. Evangelical" One of the most important 20th-century shapers of modern evangelicalism was a man whose name is unknown to most evangelicals today: Harold John Ockenga (AH-ken-gay). During his lifetime Ockenga served as founder and first president of the National Association of Evangelicals; president of the American Board of the World Evangelical Fellowship; president, co—founder, and later Chairman of the Board of Fuller Theological Seminary; Chairman of the Board of CHRISTIANITY TODAY magazine; a member of the board of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association; pastor of historic Park Street Church in Boston for more than three decades; and the founding president of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. His remarkable oratorical skills and visionary speeches made him evangelicalism's most trusted voice for decades. Billy Graham, whose fame has now eclipsed his mentor, claimed that he never made a major decision in his life without first consulting Ockenga. [See America's Hour Has Struck for more about Ockenga.] —contributed by Garth Rosell Election redirection The New Evangelicals were determined to infuse the public square—including the political arena‐ with the truths of Christianity. In the midst of the 1952 presidential campaign, a group of Christians led by former Youth for Christ president Torrey Johnson held their own "campaign" on the heels of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in an attempt to spark discussion of spiritual issues. "We feel the time has come when the entire nation should pray for guidance in the coming elections," Johnson said.

  • 1 the LIFE and LEGACY of BILL BRIGHT with The
    THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF BILL BRIGHT With the simple mission of win, build, and send the ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ, International has likely evangelized, won, and discipled more people than any other ministry in the history of the world. Campus Crusade, today a multi-million dollar ministry with over 25,000 staff and 500,000 trained volunteers, began humbly in the mind of one man. Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade has since been listed among the top influential evangelical leaders of the late 20th century.1 It is Bright alone that set into motion the mission and methods of his ministry and this paper will provide a biography of Bright and a description and analysis of his methods for ministry. Biography Bill Bright lived such a productive life that countless books could be written about him. Countless books, however, are not to be found. In fact, only one dissertation has ever been written on Bill Bright. Only two biographies of Bright have been published. A handful of other books have Bright as their main subject. By and large, Bill Bright, one of the most influential Christian leaders of the last fifty years, remains of small significance in the academic world. Perhaps this is how Bright would want it. William Bright was born on October 19, 1921 at home on his parent’s farm five miles 1John G. Turner, Bill Bright & Campus Crusade for Christ: The Renewal of Evangelicalism in Postwar America (Chapel Hill: The University of North Carolina Press, 2008), 2. 1 2 outside of Coweta, Oklahoma.2 Bright’s mother had miscarried her last child so when she became pregnant with Bill she made a commitment with God.

  • Bill Bright's Theology of Conversion
    BILL BRIGHT’S THEOLOGY OF CONVERSION __________________ A Paper Presented to Dr. Timothy Beougher The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary __________________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for 88580 __________________ By Anthony Casey No Campus Box December 13, 2010 BILL BRIGHT’S THEOLOGY OF CONVERSION Aside from those leading mass crusades, Bill Bright may have personally led more people to Christ than anyone in history. Bright’s passion for winning folks to Christ, building into them through discipleship, and sending them out to do likewise was the central goal of his life and remains the vision of the ministry he founded – Campus Crusade for Christ International. Bright was so intent on living a life where witnessing was as natural as breathing and encouraging others to do the same that he produced the most recognized tool ever invented for personal evangelism: The Four Spiritual Laws. The tract made it easy to walk someone through a gospel presentation. Campus Crusade staff were urged to bring the person to a point of decision, the prayer at the end of the booklet. Hundreds of thousands of people all over the world have prayed the prayer authored by Bright. Many of those people were indeed ushered into the Kingdom of God. Controversy emerged, however, as some called Bright’s version of the gospel ‘easy believism.’ Many said that true conversion was much more than simply praying a prayer of salvation and that the 4 Laws follow a faulty approach with the gospel. Are these skeptics correct in their attack on Bright? Was Bright’s theology of conversion faulty? Did the Four Spiritual Laws enable thousands of people to deceive themselves into thinking their conversion was genuine? These are no light questions.

  • Billy Graham
    Billy Graham William Franklin Graham Jr. (November 7, 1918 – February 21, 2018) was an American evangelist, a prominent evangelical Christian figure, and an The Reverend ordained Southern Baptist minister who became well-known internationally in the late 1940s. One of his biographers has placed him "among the most Billy Graham influential Christian leaders" of the 20th century.[2] As a preacher, he held large indoor and outdoor rallies with sermons that were broadcast on radio and television; some were still being re-broadcast into the 21st century.[3] In his six decades on television, Graham hosted annual "Crusades", evangelistic campaigns that ran from 1947 until his retirement in 2005. He also hosted the radio show Hour of Decision from 1950 to 1954. He repudiated racial segregation[4] and insisted on racial integration for his revivals and crusades, starting in 1953; he also invited Martin Luther King Jr. to preach jointly at a revival in New York City in 1957. In addition to his religious aims, he helped shape the worldview of a huge number of people who came from different backgrounds, leading them to find a relationship between the Bible and contemporary secular viewpoints. According to his website, Graham preached to live audiences of 210 million people in more than 185 countries and territories through various meetings, including BMS World Mission and Global Mission.[5] Graham was a spiritual adviser to U.S. presidents, and he provided spiritual Graham in 1966 counsel for every president from Harry S. Truman (33rd) to Barack Obama Personal (44th).[6] He was particularly close to Dwight D.
