    Primitivism refers to to Pentecostals’ “determination to refer to first things, original things, fundamental things” of their religious experience , and a “yearning to be guided solely by God’s Spirit in every aspect of their lives.” Yet, they also applied pragmatism to their daily lives as they “proved remarkably willing to work within the social and cultural expectations of the age.” Some of the Pentecostal practices helped them relate to the divine, yet helped them navigate through the cultural complexities of the modern era at the turn of the century. The tension between the primitive and pragmatic accommodations to contemporary realties is seen through women’s roles, relations between the white and black Pentecostals, Christians’ duty in wartime, and “taboos that originated in primitivist yearnings for transcendent…

    This week’s reading focused on the elaborate bureaucracy that is the United Methodist Church regarding its many governing bodies from conferences to committees, boards, and agencies. I found it interesting as the concerns over the democratic-like voting processes for each group was discussed. For instance, Tuell highlights the issues surrounding alternate forms for electing bishops, i.e. not using an appointment system, and how this would lead to parochialism (page 121). If each conference elected its own bishop it would also affect the pastoral appointment system and ultimately “allowing a constituency to elect and call its own ‘pastor,’ rather than having one appointed to it.” During my reflection on this topic, I feel there is a higher tendency…

    In Clayton’s eyes, it is not the society that needs to change, but the issue is the theology. He says that the church must rethink their theology rather than delivering the same theology in a new style. The best thing that Clayton makes a point of is to unite social action with zeal for the gospel. Clayton wishes that the church would step from their academia, even just a little bit, and begin to put into action the things spoken, not just engage hearts and…

    People tend to use denominations to try and classify themselves. Individuals are quick to tell where they attend church because they take pride in it. Most of the church population finds themselves going to what church is famous within the community, to a family church, or to what church fits their personality. A religious sect usually correlates to someone’s secular life in some way. Religious denomination is weakly related to both types of educational goals and seems to have no real influence on occupational goals.…
