This essay was first published in Why We Stayed: Honesty and Hope in the Churches of Christ (Los Angeles: Keledei Publications, 2018), pp. 103-120.

In the essay, I discuss the emerging differences within Churches in the late 19th and early 20th centuries on (1) rebaptism, (2) female voice in the assembly, and (3) the Holy Spirit.

The 1880s-1930s were characterized by a wild democracy among the emerging churches of Christ, a constant exchange of ideas and disagreements. Yet, the community held much in common and shared a common identity for the most part.
