Next, Sweeney’s inclusive approach provides the reader not only with the history of the more famed evangelicals, but also acknowledges the influences Pentecostals, charismatics, women and black leaders of the movement. Additionally, he is not afraid to highlight many of the shortcomings within the movement. In fact, “he confronts the American imperialism and “cultural chauvinism” that often accompanied mission in the nineteenth century (98) as well as the unfortunate embrace of slavery and racism by some evangelicals.” Lastly, chapter four contains a good summary of the development of modern missions movement. To his credit, Sweeney includes within this summary several trailblazing women in the rise of evangelical missions and affirms that women “worked more freely with internationals abroad than they could minister to Americans at home.” Moreover, he discusses criticism concerning “contextualization” and offers a couple of perspectives on the demographic trends of evangelical

    It’s a known fact that kids aren’t to be trusted, they are young, and foolish, labeled too immature to know better. There are many sides to be considered when dealing with the severity of choosing the correct punishment for teenage offenders. Controversy is shown when a federal judge determines it is “unconstitutional” for a juvenile to be definitively sentenced life in prison. In Correction One’s May 27, 2017 article, “Federal judge tosses out life sentences for DC sniper” written by Matthew Barakat, explains judge’s final call Lee Boyd Malvo and that he was entitled to a new sentence as Malvo was only 17 when he was arrested in 2002. Malvo murdered 10 people and injured over a dozen, but his age and immaturity say it is unethical to waste away life in prison. Many agree that a guaranteed lifetime rotting in a cell is beyond devastating for a young criminal condemned to an empty life of solitude, but 10 lives were stolen, immaturity is not excusable.

  • Charles Lynch Research Paper

    855 Words  | 2 Pages

    According to Buckser (1992), the term “lynching” was derived from a Revolutionary War Virginia militia colonel, Charles Lynch. Lynch, at this time, came up with an “unofficial justice system” that punished suspected criminals and thieves through whippings; this later became known as “Lynch’s law”. He also mentions that during the eighteenth and nineteenth century, writers used a form of public humiliation known as charivari (12). These ridicule- based punishments were typically against people who transgressed the community norm. Buckser (1992) also noted that by the 1830s writers began to see a change when the frequency and severity of lynch laws increased. They attributed this increase to the rise

  • What is a Chaplain?

    778 Words  | 2 Pages

    “The spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me: he has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed, to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to the prisoners; to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” Isaiah 61:1-2 NRSV. This is the call to all Christians and particularly those ordained or authorized for ministry by the church. Traditionally chaplains have been viewed as religious experts, the ones with the knowledge of the Bible, the ability to perform specific religious functions, the “hotline” in prayer, the ones to call in the face of ethical issues, a confidential ear in all circumstances. As religious experts chaplains are expected to have a more intimate awareness of the Bible and of God’s saving plan for humanity, of God’s love, healing and promises, of answers fo...
