Book Description
American Episcopalians have long prided themselves on their love of consensus and their position as the church of American elites. They have, in the process, often forgotten that during the nineteenth century their church was racked by a divisive struggle that threatened to tear apart the very fabric of the Episcopal Church. On one side of this struggle was a powerful and aggressive Evangelical party who hoped to make the Episcopal Church into the democratic head of "the sisterhood of Evangelical Churches" in America; on the other side was the Oxford Movement, equally powerful and aggressive but committed to a range of Romantic principles which celebrated disillusion and disgust with evangelicalism and democracy alike. The resulting conflict--over theology, liturgy, and, above all, culture--led to the schism of 1873, in which many Evangelicals left the church to form the Reformed Episcopal Church. For the Union of Evangelical Christendom tells this largely forgotten story using the case of the Reformed Episcopalians to open up the ironic anatomy of American religion at the turn of the century. Today, as the Episcopal Church once again finds itself enmeshed in cultural and religious crisis, the remembrance of a similar crisis a century ago brings an eerily prophetic ring to this remarkable work of cultural and religious history.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Worthies of the Evangelical Union: Being the Lives and Labours of Deceased Evangelical Union Ministers Many inquiries have been made regarding the prospect of having memoirs written of the lives of a number of the departed Fathers and Leaders of the Evangelical Union, more especially with regard to the Rev. Robert Morison, Rev. Peter Mather, Rev. Fergus Ferguson, sen., the Rev. Dr. Guthrie, the Rev. Dr. Bathgate - and instead of having a separate volume devoted to each of the aforementioned and others, it has been suggested that the best method would be to deal with all the biographies in one volume, and to give an account of the life and labours of all the deceased ministers of the denomination. In giving effect to the above suggestion, this volume, it is hoped, will form a lasting and a becoming tribute to the memory of our lamented and dearly beloved departed Fathers and Brethren of the ministry, men who sacrificed much for the sake of the gospel and of conscience.
