Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the Methodist Unitarian Movement, a religious and political group founded in Northern England by Joseph Cooke. In 1806, Cooke, a former Methodist minister, was expelled after he published two sermons in which he presented rational and Scriptural arguments that differed markedly from the established Methodist teachings of the time. Cooke founded Providence Chapel, Rochdale and continued to preach his sermons. He also converted the congregation at Newchurch to his beliefs. By 1919, several societies and chapels had been established by Methodist Unitarians in the area. The book traces their theological evolution. The author has drawn on a wealth of primary sources, including manuscript letters, pamphlets, and sermons, to produce a detailed and engaging account of a fascinating and influential movement that was instrumental in the development of religious toleration in the nineteenth century.
