Synopsis

Explore a landmark gathering of liberal religious thought from 1909. This volume collects the proceedings and papers from the First Congress of the National Federation of Religious Liberals, held in Philadelphia. It presents the aims, debates, and shared fellowship of a diverse group seeking sincerity, freedom, and social progress in religion.

This edition offers a window into early American conversations among progressive Christians, Reform Jews, Ethical Culturists, and others. It includes framing remarks on the federation’s purpose, the evolution of biblical interpretation, and the role of religion in public life, all grounded in a spirit of openness and mutual respect.


  • Historical context for the rise of liberal religious movements in the United States.

  • Discussions on the Bible, authority, and the development of religious thought.

  • Topics covering social questions, reform, and the responsibilities of faith communities.

  • Addresses and reflections from leaders across multiple denominations and beliefs.



Ideal for readers of religious history, interfaith dialogue, and early 20th‑century American thought seeking a broader, more inclusive view of spirituality.
