Our History

Well, our discussions on another thread has prompted me to look into the history of our movement here in the USA. Someone has offered to send me a 400 page pdf file that details parts of that history. For the sake of being fair to all parties involved, I am putting together a list of as many apostolic orgs as I can think of, past and present. Any additions to this list would be appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Our History

They are probably gonna send you that booklet that uses vague encyclopedia references to trace the Apostolic movement back to Christ's time... I think I have a copy of it too, somewhere.

What this person is sending me is the history of the merger, not whatever it is you are talking about. I am only interested in finding out what happened from Azusa Street forward.

Rico, If you can find it there is a good history on all these in the Dictionary of Pentecostals and Charismatic Movements by Stanley M burgess and Gary B. McGee. It was published by Zondervon in 88. My copy is a 4th printing in 90. Well worth the search to find a copy. It has "over 800" articles covering doctrine, biographies, etc.
