Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Baptists of Texas: A Concise Narrative of the Baptist Denomination in Texas, From the Earliest Occupation of the Territory to the Close of the Year 1906, With a Copious Topical Index As faithful as he is capable of being, has been the author in the preparation of this volume. He has had before him constantly a great denomination of Christians, whose track way he has followed through four-fifths of a century. There have been struggles herculean, and victories resplendent; there have been periods of alternating darkness and light; there have been sacrifice and selfishness, order and dis order, wisdom, far-sightecl and exact, and errors, not a few. But out of it all has come a history of rare radiance, the recorded deeds of which will serve to stimulate through all the years of time. The darkness intermingled through these deeds make the bright only the brighter. Just as they have been found to exist, have the facts been recorded. The his torian has not made them, nor has he sought to modify them. A fact cannot be unmade. It remains such for all eternity. Fidelity to the truth has been the actuating motive of the author throughout. How well he has illus trated this principle, or how far short he has fallen, will be seen in these pages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making the Bible Belt upends notions of a longstanding, stable marriage between political religion and the American South. H.L. Mencken coined the term "the Bible Belt" in the 1920s to capture the peculiar alliance of religion and public life in the South, but the reality he described was only the closing chapter of a long historical process. Into the twentieth century, a robust anticlerical tradition still challenged religious forays into southern politics. Inside southern churches, an insular evangelical theology looked suspiciously on political meddling. Outside of the churches, a popular anticlericalism indicted activist ministers with breaching the boundaries of their proper spheres of influence, calling up historical memories of the Dark Ages and Puritan witch hunts. Through the politics of prohibition, and in the face of bitter resistance, a complex but shared commitment to expanding the power and scope of religion transformed southern evangelicals' inward-looking restraints into an aggressive, self-assertive, and unapologetic political activism. The decades-long religious crusade to close saloons and outlaw alcohol in the South absorbed the energies of southern churches and thrust religious leaders headlong into the political process--even as their forays into southern politics were challenged at every step. Early defeats impelled prohibitionist clergy to recast their campaign as a broader effort not merely to dry up the South, but to conquer anticlerical opposition and inject religion into public life. Clerical activists churned notions of history, race, gender, and religion into a powerful political movement and elevated ambitious leaders such as the pugnacious fundamentalist J. Frank Norris and Senator Morris Sheppard, the "Father of National Prohibition." Exploring the controversies surrounding the religious support of prohibition in Texas, Making the Bible Belt reconstructs the purposeful, decades-long campaign to politicize southern religion, hints at the historical origins of the religious right, and explores a compelling and transformative moment in American history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All of us are shaped in many ways by unseen markers in our DNA. Unknown ancestral traits contribute to determination of such things as eye and hair color, height, and even a certain propensity or susceptibility to certain diseases. To some extent religious bodies are similarly the product of their beliefs and doctrines, at times and in certain ways, to beliefs and doctrines buried in the inherited make-up of that body or denomination. Landmarkism is such a genetic-like marker in the Southern Baptist Convention yet is largely unknown, and its influence is barely recognized today as a contributing factor in much of Baptist practice and belief. This book seeks to trace the origin and transmission of landmark beliefs from the time of its greatest influence to the present day when it is largely unknown but certainly present in beliefs and practices that have developed and become part of the Southern Baptist body in many instances.
