Book Description
This is the first history of the Plymouth Brethren, a conservative, nonconformist evangelical Christian movement whose history can be traced to Dublin, Ireland in the late 1820s. The teachings of John Nelson Darby, an influential figure among the early Plymouth Brethren, have had a huge impact on modern evangelicalism. However, the credit for Darby's work went to some of the first generation of his students, and as evangelicalism has grown it has completely ignored its origins in Darby and the Brethren. In this book, Massimo Introvigne restores credit to John Nelson Darby and his movement, and places them in a contemporary sociological framework based on Introvigne's participant observation in Brethren communities. The modern-day Plymouth Brethren emphasize sola scriptura, the belief that the Bible is the supreme authority for church doctrine and practice. Brethren see themselves as a network of like-minded independent assemblies rather than as a church or a denomination. The movement has also refused to take any formal denominational name; the title "the Brethren" comes from the Biblical passage "one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren" (Matthew 23:8). The Plymouth Brethren offers a typology of differing branches of this reclusive movement, including a case study of the "exclusive" branch known as the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church, and reveals the various ways in which Brethren ideas have permeated the modern Christian world.

Book Description
This is the first publication in which the unique dress of a religious body has been studied in such detail. The Brethren originated in Germany in the early eighteenth century and immigrated to America in 1719-1735. By the early nineteenth century specific dress items had been prescribed for the members. This volume studies the origin and variations in dress styles as well as the later demise of the dress requirements among the Brethren. Many old and historic photographs are reproduced beautifully in this book. It has been called "a major publishing event in the field of Brethren history."

Book Description
What does the Messiah mean by, As I have loved you, one another? Why does Jesus say, He that forsaketh not all that he hath, can not be my disciple? We are taught what these sayings mean through the Spirit as we draw nearer to the Lord. By looking at the teachings of the Apostles throughout the New Testament, we will be able to ascertain a principle necessary to be a Disciple of Jesus Christ.
