Description: |
The life of the Evangelical United Brethren Church was short -- less than 22 years (1946 - 1968)- yet this relatively small German-American denomination had a significant impact on Protestant Christianity. This book contains papers presented in 1996 at a conference commemorating the 50th anniversary of the creation of the EUB denomination. Chapters: The Center for the Evangelical United Brethren Heritage; The spiritual vitality of the Evangelical United Brethren heritage; The road to Johnstown (the 1946 merger); The Evangelical United Brethren understanding of ministry; I was there; The 1962 Evangelical United Brethren Confessions of Faith; Evangelical United Brethren Women and missions; The Evangelical United Brethren in Europe - historical developments to 1946; From union to union - 1946 - 1968 (emphasis on the European Evangelicals); The Evangelical Association 1945 - 1961 -- missionary departure in times of sociopolitical upheaval; Ecumenism and the Evangelical United Brethren Church; EUB piety and hymnody; The Evangelical United Brethren Celebration (November 16-18, 1996); Ecumenism - Past, Present, and Future (text Eph. 4:1-16); A Time to Remember, A Time to Forget (text Ps.103:1-14 and Phil. 3:10-16).
