Family Quarrels in the Dutch Reformed Churches in the 19th Century : The Pillar Church Sesquicentennial Lectures Paperback / softback
by Robert Swierenga, Elton J. Bruins
Part of the Historical Series of the Reformed Church in America series
Paperback / softback
Description
Volume 32 in the HSRCA series chronicles the internal quarrels that have occurred in RCA history, particularly the landmark secessions that occurred in 1850, 1857, and 1882.
While exploring the unity and disunity that have characterized the RCA since the Dutch immigration to the United States, this study also points out the righteous motivations that lay behind these struggles and shows how these historic quarrels have their counterpart in contemporary debates over the ordination of women and the church's acceptance of homosexuals.
