Synopsis

A historical sermon account on the 150th anniversary of the United Church, offered as a window into early American church life.

This nonfiction work compiles a historical discourse given by Rev. Theodore Thornton Munger, tracing the formation and evolution of the United Church through key leaders, congregational splits, and the rise of the White Haven and Fair Haven societies. It combines narrative history with period anecdotes, including notes from longtime members and details about church buildings, governance, and revival movements that shaped the denomination’s path.

- Learn how early pastors, from the church’s beginnings to figures like Jonathan Edwards Jr., influenced beliefs and practice.
- Explore the tensions between differing religious movements and how they affected church unity and property.
- See snapshots of historic buildings, meeting-house traditions, and the community life that surrounded worship.
- Get a sense of how nonprofit church governance and civil authority interacted in a colonial and early American setting.

Ideal for readers of religious history who enjoy a grounded look at how a longstanding church community formed, split, reunited, and carried its traditions forward.
