Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A Christian Program for the Rural Community' is a comprehensive exploration of the role of the church and Christian leadership in revitalizing rural society. Authored by Kenyon L. Butterfield, a pioneer in rural sociology and a key figure in the Country Life movement, this work argues for a coordinated and visionary approach to the development of rural life in the early 20th century. It addresses the unique challenges faced by farming communities and proposes a framework where the church acts as a central hub for social, economic, and moral progress.The text examines the interconnectedness of agriculture, education, and spiritual health, advocating for a 'new rural civilization' that balances modern advancement with traditional values. It serves as a significant historical document of the Social Gospel movement, reflecting efforts to apply religious principles to complex social and economic problems. Providing valuable insights for students of religious history, sociology, and community development, 'A Christian Program for the Rural Community' remains a thoughtful analysis of the social ethics required to sustain healthy and vibrant rural populations.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
