| A collection of 50 common and quirky questions about Mennonites that the Mennonite-related Third Way Cafe website, www.thirdway.com, has received over the years. Third Way Cafe is a ministry of Mennonite Mission Network and Mennonite Church USA. This book, Ask Third Way Cafe, also records straight-up, no-nonsense answers to those questions. Mennonites will find it helpful and interesting to know what other people wonder about them. And anyone new to the Mennonite church or simply curious about Mennonites-their history, theology, lifestyle, and more-can benefit from this FAQ (frequently asked questions) resource. What do Mennonites believe in? Who started it? Are Mennonites allowed to fight people that attack them? Why do they live the way they do? Would it be ok if I became a Mennonite? Such are the questions Third Way Cafe receives on an almost daily basis. Through the Internet, people anywhere in the world can satisfy their curiosity, follow their personal spiritual path, or just research essays for school without the pressure of the face-to-face interview or the potential embarrassment of a "stupid" question-even about Mennonites. Those curious about Mennonites will learn more about them. And those already Mennonite will likely find the questions fascinating, amusing, humbling, bewildering-and prompting thoughtful consideration of how they might answer these 50 questions.

Related Items History
Russia
| In the 1870's, nearly one-third of the Mennonite population in
Imperial Russia emigrated to the United States and Canada. These
Mennonite immigrants have sometimes been characterized as conservatives
who attempted to "transplant" their institutions and customs fro the
Old to the New World. According to this view, the immigrants of the
1870's migrated to preserve their old society, rather than to build new
ways of life in North America. Through a close examinations of a
variety of documents-diaries, letters to immigrant newspapers, and tax
rolls-historian Royden Loewen shows that the 1870's Mennonite
immigrants were in fact creative and innovative. In the "hidden
worlds" of their private lives, they were able to maintain some of the
most important aspects of their Mennonite identity-such as pacifism,
and community-run institutions-while also adapting their old social
structures to a new environment. Loewen argues that, in fact, private
social practices, hidden from public view, were the undergirdings of
these immigrants' successful integration into North American society. | |
