Here is the fascinating story of The Salvation Army’s indomitable presence in America, from its formation in 1880 to its ongoing crusade today both as a major evangelical movement and as the nation’s foremost human services agency.
These pages are filled with the chronological history of The Salvation Army and with illustrative anecdotes and brief biographical accounts of major figures in the denomination. Writing with the detailed precision of an insider, yet with the judicious balance and careful objectivity of a professional historian, Edward McKinley records the tale of an innumerable company of ordinary men and women, of their courage and compassion, of their daring and dedication, and of their unselfish commitment to the will and work of God in this God-ordained movement.
This second edition, based on thorough archival and scholarly research, is a major revision and update of the widely praised first edition, which was written to commemorate The Salvation Army’s centennial in the United States in 1980. There is also a new chapter on events in The Salvation Army in the years since 1980, a dynamic period that has witnessed a major expansion of the Army’s evangelical thrust and its service to others.

Reformation As Renewal
$59.99See the Reformation with Fresh Eyes as You Explore Its Historical and Intellectual Origins
The Reformation as Renewal: Retrieving the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church is a fresh, holistic, and eye-opening introduction to one of the most significant turning points in the history of the Christian church. Taking into consideration both the historical and intellectual origins of sixteenth century reform, Matthew Barrett demonstrates that the Reformation was at its core a renewal of evangelical catholicity. Rome charged the Reformers with novelty, as if they were heretics departing from the catholic (universal) Church. But the reformers believed they were more catholic than Rome. Distinguishing themselves from Radicals, the Reformers were convinced they were retrieving the faith of their fathers, both patristic and medieval. Rather than breaking with the Church, the reformers saw themselves as faithful stewards of the one, holy, catholic, and apostolic church preserved across history. While Rome depended on innovations that originated in the late medieval era, the Reformers linked arms with the church across all ages, patristic and medieval, to restore true worship and gospel renewal in their own day.
By listening to the Reformers’ own voices, The Reformation as Renewal helps readers explore:
*The Reformation’s roots in patristic and medieval thought and its response to late medieval innovations
*The Reformation’s response to the charge of novelty by an appeal to evangelical catholicity
Common caricatures of the Reformation that mistake the Reformers as Radicals and Revolutionaries*The ecclesiastical and theological milieu of the sixteenth century that motivated Martin Luther’s response in Wittenberg.
*The spread of the Reformation across Europe, as seen in first and second-generation leaders from Zwingli and Bullinger in Zurich to Bucer and Calvin in Strasbourg and Geneva to Tyndale and Cranmer in England, and many others
*The theology of the Reformers, with special attention to their confessions, catechisms, and church liturgies
This balanced, insightful, and accessible treatment of the Reformation will help readers see this watershed moment in the history of Christianity with fresh eyes and appreciate the unity they have with the church across time. Over against common caricatures today, readers will discover that the Reformation was not the invention of something new, but the renewal of something very old: the grace and g
