Chastened by their failure to avert war and the Holocaust, and troubled by missionariesâ complicity with colonial regimes, they redirected their energies back home. Renewal explores the rise and fall of this movement, which began as an effort to restore the churchâs standing but wound up as nothing less than an openhearted crusade to remake our nationâs cities. These campaigns reached beyond church walls to build or lend a hand to scores of organizations fighting for welfare, social justice, and community empowerment among the increasingly nonwhite urban working class. Church leaders extended their efforts far beyond traditional evangelicalism, often dovetailing with many of the contemporaneous social currents coursing through the nation, including black freedom movements and the War on Poverty. Renewal illuminates the overlooked story of how religious institutions both shaped and were shaped by postwar urban America. -- â¡c From publisher's description. 650 0 $a Cities and towns $x Religious aspects. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85026137 650 0 $a Cities and towns $z United States. 650 0 $a Protestantism $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Cities and towns. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00861748 650 7 $a Cities and towns $x Religious aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00861830 650 7 $a Protestantism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01079920 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 830 0 $a Historical studies of urban America. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n95045613 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191213014837.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5DE2B4A00B6411EAA467CE0D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
