Offering an overview of the history and development of
Congregationalism in the United States, Youngs chronicles the
denomination from its origins in Europe through its colonial
beginnings to the recent merger of many of its members with other
groups to form the United Church of Christ. He carefully summarizes
basic information about the church, provides original
interpretations of particular episodes in the church's history, and
offers new ideas about particular issues within the church.
Demonstrating Congregationalism's close relationship to Puritanism,
Youngs also shows how the Puritan way of seeing God, humanity, and
salvation has continued to influence Americans and how the unique
spiritual sensibility of the early Puritans endured throughout the
colonial period and long afterwards. This student edition, ideal
for classes in American Religion, Protestantism, Denominational
History, and American social and cultural history, includes a
chronology of significant events in the history of the church in
the U.S., and concludes with a bibliographic essay intended as a
guide for further reading in the history of Congregationalism.
