But he was subjected to violent abuse until he fled in fear of his life. Searching for meaning, still seeking his grounding through faith, he eventually found himself at a mosque and decided to become a Muslim. He became a strong advocate of his new community, married a Muslim woman, and faced discrimination after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. But when Muslim friends begin planning to go abroad to carry out jihad, he started working with the FBI. Although he felt compromised and conflicted, he took pride in knowing that he was protecting his community and serving his country-but that did not assuage the guilt he felt in betraying his community. Focused on themes such as morality, justice, and what it means to be an American, this account offers insights into a religion that is deeply misunderstood while sharing the true story of someone weighing the balance between faith and patriotism. |

Made several promises to serve God full time. Instead, he was content to work for the government of Kenya in the city of Kitale. But though Jefferson might have forgotten his promise, God did not. The Turning Point tells the remarkable story of Bishop Dr. Jefferson Nyatuka, a simple man who became Gods catalyst for change in Africa. After Jefferson finally accepted Gods call, he went to Bible college and became an ordained pastor. But his challenges didnt stop there. He suddenly found himself homeless and had no way to provide for his family. Yet God did not abandon him. Pastor Nyatuka kept the faith and waited for Gods timing. Soon, he was able to build a church in Kayole, Calvary Covenant Centre. The church grew and Pastor Nyatuka witnessed several wonderful miracles. He traveled to the United States and preached in several churches, spreading the Gospel wherever he went. When he returned to Africa, he eventually became ordained as a bishop and continued to follow God, a calling he still follows to this day. Uplifting and full of hope, The Turning Point shares the intimate life of one of Gods most faithful followers. |

| rev marvin gorman: Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation Kristin Kobes Du Mez, 2020-06-23 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The “paradigm-influencing” book (Christianity Today) that is fundamentally transforming our understanding of white evangelicalism in America. Jesus and John Wayne is a sweeping, revisionist history of the last seventy-five years of white evangelicalism, revealing how evangelicals have worked to replace the Jesus of the Gospels with an idol of rugged masculinity and Christian nationalism—or in the words of one modern chaplain, with “a spiritual badass.” As acclaimed scholar Kristin Du Mez explains, the key to understanding this transformation is to recognize the centrality of popular culture in contemporary American evangelicalism. Many of today’s evangelicals might not be theologically astute, but they know their VeggieTales, they’ve read John Eldredge’s Wild at Heart, and they learned about purity before they learned about sex—and they have a silver ring to prove it. Evangelical books, films, music, clothing, and merchandise shape the beliefs of millions. And evangelical culture is teeming with muscular heroes—mythical warriors and rugged soldiers, men like Oliver North, Ronald Reagan, Mel Gibson, and the Duck Dynasty clan, who assert white masculine power in defense of “Christian America.” Chief among these evangelical legends is John Wayne, an icon of a lost time when men were uncowed by political correctness, unafraid to tell it like it was, and did what needed to be done. Challenging the commonly held assumption that the “moral majority” backed Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020 for purely pragmatic reasons, Du Mez reveals that Trump in fact represented the fulfillment, rather than the betrayal, of white evangelicals’ most deeply held values: patriarchy, authoritarian rule, aggressive foreign policy, fear of Islam, ambivalence toward #MeToo, and opposition to Black Lives Matter and the LGBTQ community. A much-needed reexamination of perhaps the most influential subculture in this country, Jesus and John Wayne shows that, far from adhering to biblical principles, modern white evangelicals have remade their faith, with enduring consequences for all Americans. |

| rev marvin gorman: Rogue Clerics Anson Shupe, 2017-09-08 During the past several years the mass media in the United States has been awash with reports of priestly pedophilia, ecclesiastical cover-up, and clerical intimidation or financial settlements intended to silence victims. Based on journalistic accounts, or scholarly research, it might be assumed that this is a recent phenomenon. Journalist reports began only within the past few years. Similarly, most sociologists of religion and particularly specialists in deviance and criminology did not reflect awareness of clerical misbehavior in their work. Despite this, Anson Shupe shows that clergy deviance, whether it is sexual or otherwise, is not merely a recent problem. It is as old as the church itself and is inevitably bound to recur due to the nature of religious groups. This comprehensive analysis offers the first up-to-date analysis of sexual, economic, and authoritative clergy malfeasance across faiths and denominational authority structures. Drawing on examples taken from antiquity up until the present day, and using reports by historians, theologians, church spokespersons, therapists, social scientists, and journalists, Shupe critically evaluates clergy deviant behavior, dividing it into various types. He also makes use of the therapeutic literature, addressing victimization at the level of the individual, church, and community at large. In this way, he compares the response of the clergy to victims' attempts to mobilize movements calling for church reform. Perhaps most controversial, this book considers the possible relationship of homosexuality in the clergy to the occurrences of scandals in all religious traditions across the board. As an overview of clergy misconduct, this book is singular. There is simply no other comprehensive serious examination of this subject. Written by a sociologist for a wide range of readers, its multi-disciplinary nature, vivid examples, and wealth of research, will make the volume of interest to sociologists of religion and crime, historians and theologians, as well as a general public. |

| rev marvin gorman: Swaggart Ann Rowe Seaman, 2001-04-01 By 1987 Swaggart was one of the most popular video preachers in the world, with a weekly television audience of 2.1 million in the US and a worldwide audience of millions more in 143 countries. But then, in a cheerless motel west of New Orleans, Jimmy's life and ministry took a calamitous turn. This the tale of the rise of two intimately linked colossi of the American century: Pentecostalism, the fastest growing religious movement in the world, and its evil twin, Rock 'n' Roll. A major theme of the book is how the religious ecstasy of Pentecostalism - the rousing music, the speaking in tongues, the reception of the Spirit - combined with its severe sexual repression leads to the kind of furtive acting out that brought down not only Jimmy Swaggart but also other evangelists. It is the story, too, of the rapid rise of the Religious Right, with its competing personalities and ideologies. In the end, the author sees Jimmy as a victim - like many others - of a primitive faith colliding with the forces of the late 20th century fame. |

| rev marvin gorman: Restore Such a One Lance M. Bacon, 2024-08-01 Widespread deficiencies in spiritual formation see an increasing number of ministers buckle under the significant burdens common to the task. There are seasons when a powerful triad of the flesh, the world, and the devil converge (Eph 2:2-3, cf. Jas 3:15 and 1 John 2:16). Misdirected attempts to fulfill emptiness, find worth, or heal longstanding wounds ensue. Widespread instances of sexual immorality result. Sound exegesis and analysis of theological doctrine presents an allowance, in certain cases, for ministerial restoration. However, this necessitates an intimate and intricate approach that differs significantly from the varied solutions churches and denominations offer. Few restoration programs bring a biblical response to bear. Remarkably rare are restoration programs that look to correct causal factors and commit to congregational care. This program orients itself on an understanding of brokenness and the need for holistic (re)formation. The latter requires fallen ministers to progress beyond biblical confession and repentance to partner with the Holy Spirit and key authorities such as an overseer, mentors, Christian mental health professionals, and a designated congregation. The unitive goal is a sanctifying psychopathology that properly diagnoses spiritual and emotional health; eradicates the adverse influences of emotional, cultural, and spiritual factors; and redirects self-oriented patterns of thought and behavior. |

| rev marvin gorman: Counseling and Psychotherapy with Pentecostal and Charismatic Christians Geoffrey W. Sutton, 2020-09-17 The purpose of this book is to help mental health professionals increase their cultural competence to better serve Pentecostal and Charismatic Christians who are congregants in the world’s fastest-growing religious movement. My focus is twofold. First, I aim to increase the reader’s awareness and knowledge about Christians who live their faith within Pentecostal cultures. Second, I hope to increase the reader’s knowledge about the assessment and treatment of Pentecostal and Charismatic Christians with mental health needs based on a review of research and recommendations from experienced clinicians. My approach to assessment and treatment is the commonly held view that best practices are holistic. Therefore, I will attempt to integrate Pentecostal and Charismatic spirituality with assessment and treatment in ways that respect the spirituality of the person seeking treatment and enhances therapeutic outcomes. “The first part of the book can help all readers…understand people who live into that religion. The second part of the book is a practical and insightful guide to effective helping for psychological difficulties. I highly recommend this book to anyone who seeks to understand and help Pentecostals and Charismatics.” —Everett L. Worthington, Jr., Commonwealth Professor Emeritus ***** “…a well written, comprehensive, and very helpful guide to understanding and counseling Pentecostal and Charismatic Christians. It is a substantial and unique contribution to Christian counseling and also to the field of counseling and psychotherapy.

| rev marvin gorman: The Party of Fear David H. Bennett, 1995-11-14 Why, for two hundred years, have some American citizens seen this country as an endangered Eden, to be purged of corrupting peoples or ideas by any means necessary? To the Know-Nothings of the 1850s, the enemy was Irish immigrants. To the Ku Klux Klan, it was Jews, blacks, and socialists. To groups like the Michigan Militia, the enemy is the government itself -- and some of them are willing to take arms against it. The Party of Fear -- which has now been updated to examine the right-wing resurgence of the 1990s -- is the first book to reveal the common values and anxieties that lie beneath the seeming diversity of the far right. From the anti-Catholic riots that convulsed Philadelphia in 1845 to the 1995 bombing in Oklahoma City, it casts a brilliant, cautionary light not only on our political fringes but on the ways in which ordinary Americans define themselves and demonize outsiders. |

ESTA OBRA MARAVILHOSA EXIGE CURIOSIDADE E HUMILDADE. — RONILSO PACHECO Jesus e John Wayne é uma análise histórica contundente e desconcertante que revisita os últimos 75 anos do evangelicalismo branco estadunidense – definição que extrapola qualquer autodeclaração que leve em conta a cor da pele, indicando a adesão a um conjunto de ideologias – e revela como os cristãos têm substituído o humilde Jesus dos Evangelhos por ídolos de masculinidade autoritária e pelo nacionalismo cristão. Para a aclamada historiadora Kristin Kobes Du Mez, o segredo para compreender essa inversão é reconhecer a centralidade da cultura popular no evangelicalismo dos Estados Unidos. Muitos dos evangélicos de hoje podem não ser teologicamente instruídos, mas foram influenciados por uma cultura que idealiza a masculinidade agressiva e militante — tipo simbolizado por John Wayne, ícone hollywoodiano de um tempo em que os homens não se deixavam intimidar pelo politicamente correto. Como argumenta Du Mez, tal cultura culminou na defesa de valores que traem o cristianismo, como o patriarcado, o governo autoritário, uma política externa agressiva, a intolerância e o racismo. Um reexame necessário de uma das mais influentes subculturas dos Estados Unidos, Jesus e John Wayne mostra que, longe de abraçar princípios bíblicos, os evangélicos adeptos à essas ideologias recriaram sua fé gerando consequências duradouras para toda uma tradição. Os insights oferecidos por Du Mez certamente nos fazem olhar com ainda mais zelo para o cristianismo vivido e pregado também no contexto brasileiro. |
| rev marvin gorman: The Wayward Preacher in the Literature of African American Women James Robert Saunders, 2017-01-16 In African American culture the preacher has traditionally held many roles: minister of faith, orator, politician, idealist, and most importantly, leader. But the preacher was also traditionally male, and in many ways this advanced the perception that African American women were incapable of questioning the authority of black men. Nella Larsen, Zora Neale Hurston, Paule Marshall, Gloria Naylor, and Terry McMillan wrote of flawed African American preachers, empowering their female characters by exposing the notion of the black preacher as beyond reproach. The writings of these five women warn African American women—and society as a whole—of the power of the religious functionaries who insist that the self must be virtually obliterated in order for salvation to be attained. |

| rev marvin gorman: Setting the Captives Free Austin Miles, 1990 I was brought into a Christian church by a so-called Christian lady. While I received Jesus Christ in my heart, she left the service to go sleep with my husband. Before I had time to think, there stood Mr. (X). In a split second, he grabbed me and began to squeeze my breasts and crotch. I remember struggling to escape. I was twelve years old. Our church's youth pastor became sick with cancer. Medical treatment was resisted, and all they did was pray and fast around him 24 hours a day. He died! He was 26 years old. Ten years as a minister with the Assemblies of God Church turned Austin Miles into one of today's most outspoken critics of the church and propelled him into the international spotlight as an important spokesperson on a subject that has been handled far too delicately for far too long. Miles' first book, the controversial Don't Call Me Brother, sold thousands of copies, appeared on several religious bestseller lists, and led to an unprecedented outpouring of media attention and public response. This book updates events following the publication of the book and the televangelist scandals, and includes letters from Miles' admirers and critics - from a 70-year-old man who sees the truth about born-again Christianity for the first time, to a ministerial candidate with a high-heel fetish. Letters from followers of the late faith-healer William Branham call the book blasphemous; others detail tragic stories of molestation, the loss of life savings, and the alientaion of family members. These letters, many of them expressing confusion and pain, provide the springboard for Miles' hard-hitting examination of deceptive religious organizations and for updates on the cast of characters that still controls much of the religious thinking of our time. |
| rev marvin gorman: Public Affairs Paul Apostolidis, Juliet A. Williams, 2004-01-14 Public affairs—or sex scandals—involving prominent politicians are as revealing of American culture as they are of individual peccadillos. Implicated in their unfolding are a broad range of institutions, trends, questions, and struggles, including political parties, Hollywood, the Christian right, new communications technologies, the restructuring of corporate media, feminist and civil rights debates, and the meaning of public life in the “society of the spectacle.” The contributors to Public Affairs examine, from a variety of perspectives, how political sex scandals take shape, gain momentum, and alter the U.S. political and cultural landscape. The essays in Public Affairs reflect on a number of sex scandals while emphasizing the Clinton/Lewinsky affair, certainly the most avidly followed and momentous sex scandal in American political history. Leading scholars situate contemporary public affairs in the context not only of earlier sex scandals in American politics (such as Thomas Jefferson’s and Sally Hemings’s affair), but also of more purely political scandals (including Teapot Dome and Watergate) and sex scandals centered around public figures other than politicians (such as the actor Hugh Grant and the minister Jimmy Swaggart). Some essays consider the Clinton affair in light of feminist and anti-racist politics, while others discuss the dynamics of scandals as major media events. By charting a critical path through the muck of scandal rather than around it, Public Affairs illuminates why sex scandals have become such a prominent feature of American public life. Contributors.

| rev marvin gorman: Jesús y John Wayne Kristin Kobes Du Mez, 2023-01-30 'Jesús y John Wayne' es una amplia historia revisionista de los últimos setenta y cinco años del evangelismo blanco que revela cómo los evangélicos han trabajado para sustituir al Jesús de los Evangelios por un ídolo de la masculinidad ruda y el nacionalismo cristiano, o en palabras de un capellán moderno, por un malote espiritual. Como explica la aclamada académica Kristin Du Mez, la clave para entender esta transformación es reconocer la centralidad de la cultura popular en el evangelismo estadounidense contemporáneo. Muchos de los evangélicos de hoy pueden no ser teológicamente astutos, pero conocen sus VeggieTales (dibujos animados cristianos), han leído 'Wild at Heart' de John Eldredge, aprendieron sobre la pureza antes de aprender sobre el sexo y tienen un anillo de plata para demostrarlo. Los libros, las películas, la música, la ropa y los productos evangélicos conforman las creencias de millones de personas. Y la cultura evangélica está repleta de héroes musculosos: guerreros míticos y soldados rudos, hombres como Oliver North, Ronald Reagan, Mel Gibson y el clan Duck Dynasty, que afirman el poder masculino blanco en defensa de la América cristiana. La principal de estas leyendas evangélicas es John Wayne, un icono de una época perdida en la que los hombres no se acobardaban por la corrección política, no temían decir las cosas como eran y hacían lo que había que hacer. Desafiando la suposición comúnmente sostenida de que la mayoría moral apoyó a Donald Trump en 2016 y 2020 por razones puramente pragmáticas, Du Mez revela que Trump, de hecho, representó el cumplimiento, en lugar de la traición, de los valores más profundamente arraigados de los evangélicos blancos: el patriarcado, el gobierno autoritario, la política exterior agresiva, el miedo al Islam, la ambivalencia hacia el #MeToo y la oposición a Black Lives Matter y la comunidad LGBTQ. Una reexaminación muy necesaria de la subcultura más influyente de este país, Jesús y John Wayne muestra que, lejos de adherirse a los principios bíblicos, los evangélicos blancos modernos han rehecho su fe con consecuencias duraderas para todos los estadounidenses. |

This remarkably comprehensive work moves beyond traditional local histories that focus on powerful families. Rather, Anderson integrates the stories of well-known figures with those of ordinary men and women, blacks and whites, to create a complex but fascinating portrait of Durham's economic, political, social, and labor history.Drawing on extensive primary research, Durham County examines the origins of the town of Durham and recounts the growth of communities around mills, stores, taverns, and churches in the century preceding the rise of tobacco manufacturing. It examines all phases of life in the county: agriculture, architecture, the arts, education, industry, politics, and religion. Anderson pays particular attention to such turning points as the coming of the railroad; the Confederate surrender at the Bennett Place; the war's connection to the rise and flourishing of the tobacco industry; the move to Durham of Trinity College; the development of the Research Triangle Park and the subsequent rise of the health service and high-tech industries. |

Buddenbaum, 2020-08-13 This special issue of the Journal of Media and Religion looks at how religion is framed when it is thrust into the public realm through mediated coverage of a particular event. The first article examines how the public debate about teaching evolution was framed by the press in Tennessee. The next article discusses framing of news stories about Mormons during the 2002 Winter Olympic Games in Salt Lake City. The final article applies Silk's unsecular media hypothesis to coverage of the Jesse Jackson infidelity scandal. Each of these articles uncovers new issues and insights about the framing of religion news. The editors hope that they will become important points of departure for theorization on this important topic. Future research will benefit from the analyses presented by these authors. |

Christians are caught in the crossfire of alternative Christian histories, emerging faulty texts, and a cultural push to eliminate absolute Truth altogether. As a result, many churches and Christians have been deceived. Worse still, they propagate the deception that poses itself as Truth! In The Truth War John MacArthur reclaims the unwavering certainty of God’s Truth and anchors Christians in the eternal, immovable promises that are found in His Word. Strange Fire What would God say about those who blatantly misrepresent His Holy Spirit; who exchange true worship for chaotic fits of mindless ecstasy; who replace the biblical gospel with vain illusions of health and wealth; who claim to prophesy in His name yet speak errors; and who sell false hope to desperate people for millions of dollars? In Strange Fire, bestselling author and pastor John MacArthur chronicles the unsavory history behind the modern Charismatic movement. He lays out a chilling case for rejecting its false prophets, speaking out against their errors, showing true reverence to the Holy Spirit, and above all clinging to the Bible as the inerrant, authoritative Word of God and the one true standard by which all truth claims must be tested. |
