A Methodist religious renewal movement with more than 12 million adherents worldwide, the most familiar public manifestation of the Holiness movement has been its urban missions. The Salvation Army - noted for its service ministries among the poor and those suffering the dislocations that accompany war and disaster - is the most notable example." "In this second edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Holiness Movement, important new developments - such as the widely discussed "Holiness Manifesto" - are thoroughly covered, and the content has also been expanded to include information on figures from Asia and Africa, which reflect the continued growth of the Holiness movement. With a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography and more than 400 cross-referenced dictionary entries, this reference contains information that cannot be found elsewhere."--BOOK JACKET.  aDescription based on print version record. 0aHoliness movementxHistoryvDictionaries. 4aElectronic books.1 aKostlevy, William,d1952-08iPrint version:tHistorical dictionary of the Holiness movement.b2nd ed.dLanham, Md. : Scarecrow Press, 2009z9780810858329w(DLC)  2009010433w(OCoLC)316233224 0aHistorical dictionaries of religions, philosophies, and movements ;vno. 98.403NetLibraryuhttp://www.netLibrary.com/urlapi.asp?action=summary&v=1&bookid=337377
