The Holy Spirit in today's church;: A handbook of the new pentecostalism

Jorstad, Erling

ABINGDON PRESS *

The movement known as "ultrafundamentalism" began in the late nineteenth century under the direction of theologians who feared liberalization and secularization of the church. For the first few decades of its existence, the group was concerned only with religious issues, believing strongly in the separation of church and state. However, in the 1950s and 1960s the ultrafundamentalists found themselves in agreement with, firstly, McCarthyism and, secondly, the political far right. As a result, they entered politics and actively supported such candidates as Barry Goldwater and George Wallace. "The Politics of Doomsday" is a concise history of all facets of ultrafundamentalism. Dr. Jorstad examines both its political ideology and its religious dogma to show why the group sees itself as the savior of modern man and how it seeks to implement its mission on earth. With an objectivity that will frustrate some readers, he writes the complete story of a very vocal minority which daily recruits new members for its well-financed, well-publicized programs.

A touring guide to one of the finest cycling areas in the Midwest―a land of gently rolling hills, lakes and rivers, quiet roads, and historic bike trails. Minnesota, and especially the Twin Cities region, has developed an extensive network of bike paths around its lakes and along rivers―and for good reason. Cycling is one of the favorite pastimes in a state where the land is mostly flat and long winters give way to spectacular summers. With this latest addition to our well-established series, cyclists have a valuable guide to the most interesting and scenic of these urban bike paths and country roads. Included in these 25 tours is a long ride along the Root River Tail in the historic Bluffs Country of southeastern Minnesota; a four-lakes loop through Minneapolis; a gastronomic pedal through Spamtown, USA; an exploration of Mantorville, where nearly all the buildings are on the Historic Register; and a tour retracing an escape route of the infamous Jesse James gang. The tours range from 10 to 60 miles in length, from flat and urban to hilly and remote. Included with each tour is a detailed map, total mileage, complete mile-by-mile directions, and information on nearby points of interest.

This work presents a comprehensive overview of the philosophy and activities of the New Christian Right (NCR), which are characterized by a conspiracy theory - that secular humanists are responsible for the degeneration of the country into pervasive evil - and by a social agenda of activism in the areas of abortion, pornography, homosexual rights, prayer in the schools and creationism.
