    A Deal with the Devil: Pragmatic Mission and Early American Methodism’s Complicity with Slavery

    Get PDF
    Early American Methodism inherited a staunch abolitionist position from John Wesley. Bishops Francis Asbury and Thomas Coke strongly opposed slavery. Under their leadership, the early minutes and disciplines included a series of rules that required preachers to free their slaves and ameliorate the effects of slavery. They also waged an ongoing “war” with the various state legislatures that allowed slavery. After a strong backlash threatened Methodism’s ability to minister to slaves, enter plantations, and work in the South, the church prioritized the evangelistic mandate over the cultural mandate. The compromise mitigated social hostility and allowed Methodism to become the largest church in the South by 1800. Sadly, the compromise tainted the church, enabled slavery, and created a legacy of racism

    H.C. Morrison and the Holiness Union of the South

    Get PDF
    Holiness history in the southern United States tends to view the movement as a collection of local or regional churches or institutions without a unified organization. This view often overlooks the work of H.C. Morrison and an organization he founded called the Holiness Union of the South. It began in 1904 and lasted through 1915 and sought to unite the Holiness work in a fashion similar to the National Holiness Association in the northern United States. The Union focused on the areas of mission, education, and publishing- areas which smaller organizations were ill-equipped to operate. While the Union was initially successful, a number of forces led to its collapse: the growth of Pentecostalism with its rapid spread across the South, the growth and expansion of Holiness denominations, such as the Church of the Nazarene and the Christian and Missionary Alliance, and the outbreak of World War I. Morrison ultimately returned to his base in Kentucky, where he maintained his focus on mission, education, and publishing, albeit on a smaller scale than he envisioned under the Holiness Union of the South
