A History of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ): Faith, Tradition, and Journey

Description

by Lester G. McAllister and William E. Tucker

A snapshot of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) near the apex of Mainline Protestantism in America, Journey in Faith examines the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) stand in the North American social and religious scene at the end of the twentieth century. To answer that a question requires a careful look — a reexamination—of Disciples history, the heritage, and the roots of the movement. There is need for another look at the early Disciples on the American frontier, at the beginning of the nineteenth century. What happened to the dreams of those days? Is there yet occasion to rejoice in hope? Authors Lester G. McAllister, Jr., and William E. Tucker bring decades of experience and expertise in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) to Journey in Faith.
