Letters To Reverend B. Stow, R. H. Neale, And R. W. Cushman: On Modern Revivals (1842)

""Letters to Reverend B. Stow, R. H. Neale, and R. W. Cushman: On Modern Revivals"" is a book written by Otis Ainsworth Skinner and first published in 1842. The book is a collection of letters that Skinner wrote to three clergymen, discussing his thoughts and observations on the religious revivals that were taking place in the United States during the early to mid-19th century. Skinner was a Congregationalist minister and a critic of the revivalist movement, which he believed placed too much emphasis on emotional experiences rather than sound doctrine and intellectual understanding of the faith. In his letters, Skinner argues that true revival must be grounded in a deep understanding of the Bible and the doctrines of the Christian faith, rather than relying solely on emotionalism and sensationalism. The book provides a valuable insight into the debates and controversies surrounding the revivalist movement in the United States during the 19th century, and it remains a significant work in the history of American Christianity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
