Stidger forever changed the way evangelists present themselves to the public, and was a forerunner of Billy Graham, Jim Bakker, and Jerry Falwell.

At his death on the eve of the 20th century, D.L. Moody was widely recognized as one of the most beloved and important of men in 19th-century America. A Chicago shoe salesman with a fourth grade education, Moody rose from obscurity to become God's man for the Gilded Age. He was the Billy Graham of his day--indeed it could be said that Moody invented the system of evangelism that Graham inherited and perfected. Bruce J. Evensen focuses on the pivotal years during which Moody established his reputation on both sides of the Atlantic through a series of highly popular and publicized campaigns. In four short years Moody forged the bond between revivalism and the mass media that persists to this day. Beginning in Britain in 1873 and extending across America's urban landscape, first in Brooklyn and then in Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, and Boston, Moody used the power of prayer and publicity to stage citywide crusades that became civic spectacles. Modern newspapers, in the grip of economic depression, needed a story to stimulate circulation and found it in Moody's momentous mission. The evangelist and the press used one another in creating a sense of civic excitement that manufactured the largest crowds in municipal history. Critics claimed this machinery of revival was man-made. Moody's view was that he'd rather advertise than preach to empty pews. He brought a businessman's common sense to revival work and became, much against his will, a celebrity evangelist. The press in city after city made him the star of the show and helped transform his religious stage into a communal entertainment of unprecedented proportions. In chronicling Moody's use of the press and their use of him, Evensen sheds new light on a crucial chapter in the history of evangelicalism and demonstrates how popular religion helped form our modern media culture.

From the urbanization of the Gilded Age to the upheavals of the Haight-Ashbury era, this encyclopedic work by Glenn Miller takes readers on a sweeping journey through the landscape of American theological education, highlighting such landmarks as Princeton, Andover, and Chicago, and such fault lines as denominationalism, science, and dispensationalism. The first such exhaustive treatment of this time period in religious education, Piety and Profession is a valuable tool for unearthing the key trends from the Civil War well into the twentieth century. All those involved in theological education will be well served by this study of how the changing world changed educational patterns.

In 1920s Middle America, the Ku Klux Klan gained popularity not by appealing to the fanatical fringes of society, but by attracting the interest of “average” citizens. During this period, the Klan recruited members through the same unexceptional channels as any other organization or club, becoming for many a respectable public presence, a vehicle for civic activism, or the source of varied social interaction. Its diverse membership included men and women of all ages, occupations, and socio-economic standings. Although surviving membership records of this clandestine organization have proved incredibly rare, Everyday Klansfolk uses newly available documents to reconstruct the life and social context of a single grassroots unit in Newaygo County, Michigan. A fascinating glimpse behind the mask of America’s most notorious secret order, this absorbing study sheds light on KKK activity and membership in Newaygo County, and in Michigan at large, during the brief and remarkable peak years of its mass popular appeal.

Jim Morrison, in all his sensitivity and bombast blast into stardom in the late 1960s as the lead singer of The Doors. Were the beams of his star manipulated and mastered by sinister forces while he stood by rejecting authority? Did the turmoil inside the poet drive him into the spotlight only to leave him questioning its validity while secretly reaching for the hand of all he'd rejected? Michael J Bollinger examines the singers rise and fall and delves into Jim Morrison's search for what awaited him beyond deaths door.

This is a series of case studies that will help novice and professional alike learn how to use all forms of media in the evangelism process. These case studies come from Africa, Asia and Latin America and most have discussion questions to help the reader grasp the key parts of these examples from radio, television/film, mobile/Internet media. Reviews: Dan Henrich is the leading international media strategist in the world today. He has done a great job of researching powerful stories from around the world and presenting them in the form of case studies that contain missions insights in the form of media ministry. There's a truism in training that "more is caught than taught." The insights in this compilation can be caught by any ministry that is oriented at effectively communicating the gospel. Although it's easy to view these case studies as just praise reports of God's activity, I would recommend this book as a collection of media strategies through which the Holy Spirit worked over stretches of time and can still bear fruit for your ministry, too. The global perspective Dan shares through these 28 case studies will bring cross-fertilization to media strategy planning to accelerate response to the gospel. Mark Snowden, media strategy trainer and author, Truth That Sticks To impact today's culture, we need the right information. Dan Henrich's "Evangelism in the Digital Age" is a outstanding collection of case studies that give us a guidebook to our potential audience. Media works when it connects with people, and this book is a great start. Phil Cooke, filmmaker, media consultant Author: "Jolt! Get the Jump on a World That's Constantly Changing. Dan has done us a great service by compiling these media case studies. They span a wide range of areas - film and video, radio and audio, Internet and mobile technologies - all in the context of missions. He gives the case studies added value by providing discussion questions and lessons learned. An invaluable tool for those involved in media today as it details what others are doing in contexts different from our own and opens our eyes to new possibilities. - Frank Gray, International Program Consultant and leader of the New Media Task Group of FEBC. This book centers on dispatches from the field not dissertations from the classroom. This digital age offers great opportunities for church planting teams. Dan Henrich has drawn together current day projects to help others move beyond interesting theories to real outcomes. - DM, Team Leader, Global Communication Team International Mission Board, SBC As missions around the world venture into the realm of media, a peek into the efforts made by others in similar circumstances is a priceless tool. This collection of real life, firsthand accounts by those who are fighting the battle every day in the trenches is an idea whose time has come. From heartfelt failures to humbling success stories, each case study offers valuable lessons for the reader who is honestly looking for them. We who are in media for the sake of God's Kingdom ignore such a treasure at our own risk... or worse, at the peril of our ministries.

In his first book, Spirited Americans, A. E. Jeffcoat celebrated America's optimists, the people who gave this country its character and greatness. He follows it with Soul Searching, an affirmation of Christian faith through the testimony of pilgrims who have born witness to its historical traditions. Today, those who turn to God to help them deal with the challenges of a world without a moral compass will derive comfort from treading the same path as Einstein, Schweitzer, and Mother Teresa. Others who have lost their faith, or never found it, can look for encouragement in the lives of latecomers such as Tolstoy and Malcolm Muggeridge, discovering, as did Simone Weil, that any step toward God is a good step. The legacy of Thomas Jefferson and the examples of such leaders as Hamilton, Lincoln, and the two Roosevelt's will challenge those who question whether faith has a place in our secular polity. Learn the power of faith and the durability of Christianity in Soul Searching.
