  4. CH601 The History and Theology of the Restoration Movement<\/strong> (March 17-May 11)
    Instructor: Dr. Kinnard
    Course Description: This course surveys the historical developments, documents, and theology of the Stone-Campbell Movement, particularly the branch of the movement known as the Church of Christ. The American Restoration Movement is also known as the Stone-Campbell Movement, after the names of the two main proponents of restoration, Barton W. Stone and Alexander Campbell. Some would date the beginning of the movement with the Cane Ridge Revival in 1801. Others believe the movement began with Thomas Campbell\u2019s 1809 \u201cDeclaration and Address,\u201d and others date it to Stone\u2019s \u201cLast Will and Testament of the Springfield Presbytery\u201d in 1804.) Three churches grew out of this movement the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), the Christian Churches\/Churches of Christ (Independent), and the Churches of Christ. During the 19th century, the movement was relatively united (though cracks began to emerge by the 1860s), but by the beginning of the 20th century they had divided into two major groups and by the mid-20th century there were three. The focus of this course is the trajectory embodied in the life of Churches of Christ.
