But what would they say about the relationship between the two men at the center of the charismatic phenomenon? Author James D. Croone, Sr., examines the story within the story. Was the outpouring of the Holy Spirit that touched off a worldwide Pentecostal movement able to touch the heart of its prophet? Or would this color line, what W. E. B. DuBois called the problem of the twentieth century and a matter of cultural patterns, perverted teaching and human hate and prejudice, which .caused endless evil to all men wreak havoc even in this cherished sanctuary? The author finds that the walls of Azusa Street Mission indeed speak volumes. This book explores the relationship between Pentecostal pioneers William J. Seymour and Charles F. Parham by examining the doctrine of God at the core of their bond, the laws and societal norms at the beginning of the twentieth century that impacted interactions across racial lines, and the cultural divide that had shaped two very different contexts for religious experience and worship practice.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50378650648849,"sku":"CIN1502499762G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50387058950417,"sku":"CIN1502499762VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53338108363025,"sku":"NIN9781502499769","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1502499762.jpg?v=1751211220"},{"product_id":"walking-in-line-book-james-d-croone-sr-9798385238026","title":"Walking in Line","description":"As a Black American, James Croone can speak to many of the dismays of racism. Through years of teaching in Bible colleges and pastoring, he remains perplexed how one can hold on to biases against those of other ethnicities and proudly proclaim to be a follower of Jesus Christ. However, this has been a standard fixture throughout history from those who have interpreted God's word to enslave, oppress, and extort those made in his image. One would only believe that through advanced developments in studies of resources, archeology, and linguistics analysis--and, most importantly, being in tune with God's Spirit--we would have a better grasp of the gospel, ridding ourselves of these pseudo-interpretations. Much of what is touted in media, publications, or friends with opinions conveys solutions that are irrational and fueled by anger and reprisal. Civil unrest, reforms, laws, and financial retribution are shortlived, external solutions; bias is an internal problem. No matter how stringent laws can be, there are always loopholes. There are no loopholes internally, though, if one truly walks in line with the gospel. This book aims to assist in transforming the hearts of those wrestling with bias and lead them to the path of restoration.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53638404210961,"sku":"NLS9798385238026","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9798385238026.jpg?v=1781007890"},{"product_id":"walking-in-line-book-james-d-croone-sr-9798385238019","title":"Walking in Line","description":"As a Black American, James Croone can speak to many of the dismays of racism.
