Description: Employing studies in population ecology as a framework
for understanding the growth of religious movements,
Disfellowshiped traces the growth of the Pentecostal movement. The
author explores how the Pentecostal movement developed in
relationship to Fundamentalism from its roots in the Holiness
movement to the formation of the National Association of
Evangelicals. Particular attention is given to the various
critiques and rebuttals exchanged between Fundamentalists and
Pentecostals, exploring how these two movements influenced and
shaped one another. This book shows how, despite their mutual
antagonism, these two movements held far more in common than in
contrast. This book will be of great importance to all those
interested in the history of Fundamentalism and the rise of
Pentecostalism. Endorsements: ""Pentecostalism emerged in the early
years of the twentieth century, shortly followed by Fundamentalism.
The adherents of the two movements shared an Evangelical heritage
and yet they disagreed sharply with each other. Members of each
group denounced the other as betrayers of the gospel and worse.
Gerald King has analyzed their antagonistic rhetoric and its
theological premises, vividly illuminating a world in which the two
sides 'disfellowshiped' each other."" --David Bebbington author of
Victorian Nonconformity (Cascade, 2011) ""For too long historians,
following the lead of a handful of anti-pentecostal preachers from
the 1920s, have treated fundamentalism and pentecostalism as
totally distinct movements. As Gerald W. King's compelling book
reveals, the relationship between pentecostals and fundamentalists
has been far more complicated than most scholars realize.
Disfellowshiped is a carefully researched book that makes a
significant contribution to the religious history of the interwar
era."" --Matthew Avery Sutton author of Aimee Semple McPherson and
the Resurrection of Christian America (2007) About the
Contributor(s): Gerald King is a recent PhD graduate of the
University of Birmingham (UK).
