Pentecostals: Pacifism, War, and Peace--Part 1 w/ Dr. Jay Beaman--(Nonviolence)

Dr. Beaman explores early Holiness and Pentecostal churches and their very significant pacifist orientation. We consider the reasons for pacifism, how it was propagated, how widespread it was, and how it was practiced sacrificially during WWI with many going to prison rather than war. Beaman tells the story of Pentecostals' gradual accommodation to American culture and how that played out in relation to military service.
