Synopsis

This book tells the story of Richard Steward, a prominent figure in the Church of England during the tumultuous seventeenth century. Steward's life and career spanned a period of profound religious and political upheaval, witnessing the rise of Puritanism, the struggles of the Stuart monarchs, and the English Civil War. The author provides a detailed account of Steward's early life and education, focusing on the intellectual and religious currents that shaped his views. The book then delves into Steward's political activities, particularly his role in the Convocation of 1640, a gathering of the clergy that was pivotal in shaping the course of religious and political debate. The author examines the complex theological and political issues that were at play during this time, including the rise of Arminianism and the clash between the Church of England and Puritan forces. The book ultimately reveals Steward's unwavering loyalty to the crown and the Church of England, offering a fascinating glimpse into the turbulent life of a man deeply committed to his faith and his King.
