The Nation's Gospel Volume 2

The Nation’s Gospel is a unique four-volume work, which takes the reader on a journey to explore how the Christian faith has been spread in Britain since the Reformation. This is living history, telling the stories of the Christian faith of past generations and its outworking in society, which has much to teach us today. Volume 2 (1791-1900) Revolution to Revival, covers the period from the dark days of the French Revolution, through the mid-19th century revival to the beginning of the 20th century. It describes the influence of the Clapham Sect, the Primitive Methodists, the Brethren and the Salvation Army, and the expansion of evangelism in the Church of England and other denominations, by a variety of means. These included education, tract distribution, family religion, open air preaching, colporteurs, missions and social work. Woven into this story of zeal are the intellectual challenges to the Christian faith and doctrine, coming from both inside and outside the churches
