- Title
A People's Reformation: Building the English Church in the Elizabethan Parish.
- Authors
Harmes, Marcus
- Abstract
The first document is a book review from the Journal of Religious History. It discusses a book called "A People's Reformation: Building the English Church in the Elizabethan Parish." The reviewer praises the book for its examination of the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada's (PAOC) acknowledgment of its complicity with colonial structures and its attempts to apologize for its behavior. However, the reviewer also notes that there is suspicion among Indigenous communities regarding the PAOC's motivations and that some churches have left the denomination. The reviewer suggests that the book should have also explored the relationships between Indigenous Pentecostal ministers and other racialized communities within the PAOC. Overall, the book is recommended for Pentecostal scholars interested in the impact of colonization on the Pentecostal movement. The second document is a book review from the same journal. It discusses a book called "Lucy Moffat Kaufman: A People's Reformation: Building the English Church in the Elizabethan Parish." The reviewer praises the book for its focus on the everyday people involved in the English Reformation, rather than just the major figures. The book uses archival research to challenge existing interpretations of the post-Reformation Church, particularly regarding the condition of church buildings and the financial health of the parishes. The reviewer highlights the importance of archival research in providing a more accurate understanding of the period. Overall, the book is recommended for its contribution to the historiography of the Tudor Church.
