Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Unification: The How, What and Why of the United Christian Missionary Society' provides a comprehensive examination of the landmark institutional consolidation that transformed the missionary efforts of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the early 20th century. Written by Frederick William Burnham, a pivotal figure in the movement, this work serves as both a historical record and a strategic manifesto for the unification of diverse religious boards into a single, cohesive entity.The book delves into the spiritual and practical motivations behind merging multiple missionary associations, exploring the 'why' of collective action in spreading the Christian faith. It outlines the structural framework of the United Christian Missionary Society, detailing the 'what' of its administrative functions and the 'how' of its operational execution. Burnham captures a significant era of Protestant ecumenism and organizational modernization, reflecting the broader American religious landscape of the 1920s.This volume is an essential resource for historians of the Disciples of Christ, scholars of missiology, and those interested in the evolution of institutional religious structures. It offers unique insights into the challenges and triumphs of coordinating global mission work, education, and benevolent services under one unified banner, preserving the vision that shaped a generation of religious leadership.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
