Disciples Of Christ: Confessing Faith As A Non-Creedal Community, Robert D. Cornwall
Disciples Of Christ: Confessing Faith As A Non-Creedal Community, Robert D. Cornwall
Journal of Discipliana
The Stone-Campbell Movement, of which the Disciples of Christ is one branch, takes pride in being a non-creedal faith community, but that status is more complicated than our claim would suggest. There is a tendency among Disciples to discount theology and confessions of faith, with some saying one can be a Disciple and believe anything one wishes. However, Disciples have deep Christological roots. While Disciples have historically turned to the Bible, and especially the New Testament, for confessional guidance the center of Disciples identity is the confession Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. This essay, which is meant …

Lgbtq+ Inclusion: An Appeal To Stone-Campbell Movement Ideals, Michael Shepherd
Lgbtq+ Inclusion: An Appeal To Stone-Campbell Movement Ideals, Michael Shepherd
Journal of Discipliana
To name exclusion as religiously-motivated violence requires us to confront the ways in which spiritual communities contribute to the marginalization of others, both by-design or as collateral damage. While violence against a minority group can be motivated by various factors, religious belief has been historically and continues to be a significant influence toward violence against the LGBTQ+ community. This presents a paradox for Christians whose sense of who they believe themselves to be (rational) and what they believe about the early and persisting Christian witness (loving) creates a religious tradition that is not fixated on violent expressions of divine commands.

Review Of James L. Gorman, Among The Early Evangelicals, Mark G. Toulouse
Journal of Discipliana
Nearly all American religious historians among Disciples have noted, I think, the influences of Rowland Hill, Greville Ewing, the Haldane brothers, and both Glas and Sandeman. What they have not done is show the development of the broader transatlantic evangelical missions movement, and how the four themes of “mission, unity, primitivism, and millennialism” repeatedly showed up through the various missionary societies in London, and in Scotland and Ireland. I think this is Jamey’s main contribution – relating this story, and its connection to the Campbells, in such an organized and compelling way.
Review Of Answered By Fire, Robert D. Cornwall
Review Of Answered By Fire, Robert D. Cornwall
Journal of Discipliana
In August of 1801, a Presbyterian pastor in rural Kentucky hosted an annual communion event that would turn into a massive camp meeting and revival that crossed denominational, ethnic/racial, and gender boundaries. That event is known as the Cane Ridge Revival and it helped launch the Second Great Awakening, which swept across the frontier before it turned back toward the east. The Great Western Revival, of which Cane Ridge was one of the most important contributors, has its origins in the late eighteenth century and continued well into the nineteenth century. The name of that Presbyterian pastor was Barton W. …
The Whole Trouble Lies In Religion: Dwight Lyman Pendleton And The Federal Bureau Of Investigation During The First World War, Joshua W. Jeffery
The Whole Trouble Lies In Religion: Dwight Lyman Pendleton And The Federal Bureau Of Investigation During The First World War, Joshua W. Jeffery
Journal of Discipliana
While the founders of the Stone-Campbell Movement rejected Christian participation in warfare, by World War I, the majority of Disciples of Christ supported participation in the conflict. However, a small pocket of Disciples, such as D.L. Pendleton—the grandson of Alexander Campbell—continued to oppose Christian participation in warfare. Pendleton, a prosperous and powerful attorney and a quintessential community insider, spoke out against the war. Pendleton’s outspokenness about war transgressed community norms, transforming him from an insider to an outsider, and therefore, susceptible to both harassment by the FBI and to the vigilante justice of his community.
