Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the religious life of German immigrants in Colonial America. It focuses on the Separatists, who broke away from the established Lutheran and Reformed churches, and the churchly Separatists, who remained within the church but formed their own groups. The author examines the influence of German Pietism, a movement that emphasized personal salvation and charity, on these groups. The book also discusses the various sects that emerged from the Separatist movement, such as the Mennonites, Dunkers, and Ephrata community. The author explores the beliefs, practices, and leaders of these groups, as well as their interactions with the broader religious landscape of Colonial America. Ultimately, this book sheds light on the diversity and vitality of religious life among German immigrants in Colonial America.
