Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book details the evolution of the First Parish Church in Stow over two centuries, examining the changes in religious thought and practice within the congregation and situating them within the broader context of New England's religious history. The author traces the church's roots in the liberal Congregationalism of the early settlers, through the period of doctrinal rigidity in the 18th century, to its eventual adoption of Unitarianism in the 19th century. Along the way, the book explores the tensions between orthodoxy and liberalism, the role of the minister in the community, and the challenges posed by social and intellectual change. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the religious life of a New England town and offers insights into the development of American religious thought and practice. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion in America or the evolution of Unitarianism.
