Composed in 1809 in order to organize and direct a loosely
assembled network of Scots-Irish Presbyterians on the Western
Pennsylvania frontier, the Declaration and Address of the Christian
Association of Washington never quite achieved the immediate
objectives that compelled its composition. Yet the document's lofty
vision of a unified Christian Church, restored to the peace and
purity that the New Testament had preached and promised, has for
generations fueled the imagination and fired the commitment of
millions of Christians worldwide with, often, quite contradictory
results. Emerging from the work of an international online seminar,
this truly monumental volume presents a definitive text with
critical apparatus for a landmark document in the history of
American religion and worldwide Christian ecumenism, along with
eighteen insightful, incisive studies of the document's historical
provenance, its theological and ecclesiological significance, and
its continuing influence.
