Henry Ward Beecher As His Friends Saw Him - Various - ebook

Author: Revival Library Books

£4.99

This book is definitely not about a successful revivalist, but rather a man who fell from being an evangelical and revivalist into a rather cultured and popular clergyman of his day.

Henry Ward Beecher, son of Lyman Beecher, began his ministry on the western frontier, where he engaged vigorously in the labours of a revivalist. Asahel Nettleton had considerable influence over his life in those early years. He moved to Plymouth Church, Brooklyn in 1847.

By this time he had developed a national reputation for his oratorical skills, and drew crowds of 2,500 regularly every Sunday.

He strongly opposed slavery and favoured temperance and women's suffrage. Unfortunately, his time in Brooklyn was marred by a radical departure from his earlier position.

Although Plymouth Church was greatly affected by the revival of 1857-185, this pastor's life was tragically marred by accusations of infidelity and theological wavering.
