An overview of the history of evangelicalism as a global movement, from its origins in the eighteenth century to the present.

"In October 1757, Thomas Haweis, a young Cornishman, was ordained to the curacy of St Mary Magdalen church in Oxford. Haweis's ministry rapidly stirred strong reactions. According to Charles Wesley, a co-founder of Methodism, he preached 'Christ crucified, with amazing success, ' and drew large crowds both from the University and the city. On the other hand, students jeered Haweis in the street, shouting 'There goes the saver of souls!': stones were thrown through the church windows while he was preaching, and 'This is the back way to Hell' was chalked on the church doors. More orderly, but ultimately more effective, critics eventually forced Haweis to leave Oxford in 1762. Not to be repressed, Haweis subsequently published a selection of the sermons he had delivered in Oxford under the overall title of Evangelical Principles and Practice. It was one of earliest attempts systematically to set out the theological outlook of the developing evangelical movement and its implications for Christian devotion and practice. Haweis's starting point was 'The Divinity of the SON and SPIRIT, co-eternal and co-equal with the FATHER'. He affirmed 'the inability of man in his fallen state to do any thing but evil' and the impossibility of human compliance with God's Law"--

Tiffany was an African American woman who was raised in a Christian household. After high school, she attended college and law school then started what would become an exciting career. Although at the expense of several failed relationships, Tiffany felt blessed to give birth to her son. Later in life, Tiffany found true love when she dated someone she believed was the man of her dreams. Unfortunately, Tiffany's son made a stunning allegation which divided her family and caused what would become an emotional avalanche. Hit with a series of blows to her personal and professional life, Tiffany found herself at the edge of her rope. After having hit rock bottom, Tiffany was admitted into a facility with others who struggled to cope with their problems and rebuild their lives. While there, she became close friends with a Caucasian female, a Native American male, and a Hispanic male. Eventually, they banded together and became their own support network. Later, each of them discovered they had been given a gift from God. Finally, they were grateful for a second chance at life and were excited to share their newfound gifts with others! Millions of families have been negatively impacted by tragedies that stemmed from suicide, suicidal intents, and/or mental illness. One Gift to Give illustrates a picture of the pain and desperation a person may endure before he or she decides to take their own life. This book will neither judge nor condemn anyone. However, it does affirm the belief that God has given a gift to everyone with which to live a purposeful life. It is much harder-if not impossible-to take your own life when you have discovered the gifts that God has given for your fulfillment in life and for his glory and honor!

What does it mean to talk about musical coherence at the end of a century characterised by fragmentation and discontinuity? How can the diverse influences which stand behind the works of many late twentieth-century composers be reconciled with the singular immediacy of the experiences that they can create? How might an awareness of the distinctive ways in which these experiences are generated and controlled affect the way we listen to, reflect upon and write about this music? Mark Hutchinson outlines a novel concept of coherence within Western art music from the 1980s to the turn of the millennium as a means of understanding the work of a number of contemporary composers, including Thomas Adès, Kaija Saariaho, Tō ru Takemitsu and György Kurtág, whose music cannot be fitted easily into a particular compositional school or analytical framework. Coherence is understood as a multi-layered phenomenon experienced, above all, in the act of listening, but reliant upon a variety of other aspects of musical experience, including compositional statements, analysis, and connections of aesthetic, as well as listeners' own, imaginative conceptualisations. Accordingly, the approach taken here is similarly multi-faceted: close analytical readings of a number of specific works are combined with insights drawn from philosophy and aesthetics, music perception, and critical theory, with a particular openness to novel metaphorical presentations of basic musical ideas about form, language and time.
