Here&#8217;s Marta:<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">When and where did the Amish originate?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Amish trace their roots back to the Protestant Reformation in the sixteenth century in Europe. Reformers began to question the Catholic Church, and such leaders as Martin Luther, Ulrich Zwingli, and John Calvin eventually split with the church, beginning the Lutheran and Reformed traditions. On a trip to Europe a few years ago, I stood in a park in Geneva, Switzerland, looking at statues of those men and wondering at their courage in taking on the strongest force in their world.<br \/>\nBut of course the questioning didn\u2019t stop with those first leaders. Others challenged them, believing that true followers of Christ should live apart from the world\u2019s standards. They rejected the idea of infant baptism, believing instead in baptism as a sign of adult commitment. Thus they came to be known as Anabaptists, or \u201cre-baptizers.\u201d As a result, they were soon condemned by both the Catholics and the mainstream Protestants!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/amish-nonresistance-dirk-willems.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5855\" src=\"http:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/amish-nonresistance-dirk-willems.png\" alt=\"Amish painting\" width=\"260\" height=\"195\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nIn the ensuing years, persecution erupted, with hundreds martyred for their faith, a fact which is still prominent today in the firm commitment to non-violence of the Anabaptist churches.<\/p>\n<p>The Anabaptists were eventually called \u201cMennonites\u201d due to the teaching of Menno Simons. One of his followers, Jakob Ammann, became troubled by the lives of some Anabaptists, feeling they lived too comfortably with the surrounding society. Ammann\u2019s stricter teachings eventually led to the formation of a new group, the Amish.<\/p>\n<p>Because of continuing persecution, the Amish began immigrating to America in the early 1700s, along with a number of other German-speakers, including my own Swiss and German ancestors, the Ungers and the Taubenbergers. Arriving at the port of Philadelphia, they settled in nearby counties, eventually spreading west and forming new communities. By the 1930s, there were no Amish left in Europe.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">What sets your group apart from other Christians?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The basic issue of adult baptism, common to all Anabaptists, is an obvious hallmark. An Amish young person is baptized when mature enough to make the choice to join the church, knowing that he or she is committing to living Amish for the rest of life.<\/p>\n<p>Other aspects of being Amish that set them apart include yieldedness, nonviolence, humility, and obedience. The Amish way is that of being yielded to God\u2019s will, no matter what happens. It is espousing the belief in turning the other cheek, as exemplified in the stories of the martyrs. Humility is not a popular virtue in a contemporary culture which puts emphasis on competition, individualism, and personal fulfillment. The Amish believe that humility, as shown in speech, dress, attitude, and a hundred other details of daily life, is the Christian way. Obedience runs through all of Amish life: obedience of children to parents, younger to older, members to the church. From these basic beliefs flow all the things we identify as Amish: plain dress, horse and buggy transport, close family life, and interdependence on the group.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Amish7.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5856\" src=\"http:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Amish7.png\" alt=\"Amish buggy\" width=\"360\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Amish7.png 360w, https:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Amish7-300x250.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Is your group still alive today?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Amish don\u2019t merely survive, they thrive! When you consider that a very small number of people become converts, their growth seems even more astonishing. But not only do the Amish have large families, their retention rate of young adults is over 80%. Amish groups have spread to a number of states and Canada. In 2012, there were over 2,000 church districts, with a total population of over 270,000 people.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Why did you choose to write about this group?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I grew up in a small, rural community in southwestern Pennsylvania where there was a number of Plain people, many of whom went to school with me. Since then, I\u2019ve lived in another rural community in central Pennsylvania, so the Amish and other Plain groups have always been part of my environment. I\u2019m also of Pennsylvania Dutch descent, so the customs, traditions, and food we share creates a bond for me.<\/p>\n<p>I first introduced Amish characters into a book I was writing in an existing series for Love Inspired. My editor said, \u201cDo more of that!\u201d So I did, and it\u2019s led me to a very satisfying experience in writing about a group I know and admire.&#8221;&#8211;Marta<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Amish-barn-and-clothesline.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5857\" src=\"http:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Amish-barn-and-clothesline.png\" alt=\"Amish home\" width=\"460\" height=\"391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Amish-barn-and-clothesline.png 460w, https:\/\/booksbylyncote.com\/SWBS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Amish-barn-and-clothesline-300x255.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 460px) 100vw, 460px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Marta&#8217;s social media links:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/martaperrybooks\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/martaperrybooks<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.martaperry.com\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.martaperry.com<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.blogspot.com\/booksbymartaperry\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.blogspot.com\/booksbymartaperry<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Thanks, Marta.
