Synopsis

This book provides a complete history of the International Uniform Lesson, beginning with its origins in the Sunday school movement of the 18th century. The author traces the development of the lesson system, from its early focus on reading and writing to its emphasis on moral and religious instruction, through to the adoption of a uniform series of lessons in 1872. The book explores themes such as the role of the Sunday school in the education of children, the influence of evangelical revivalism on the development of the lesson system, and the challenges and controversies that have shaped the history of the International Uniform Lesson. This book will be of interest to scholars of religious education, historians, and anyone interested in the history of the Sunday school movement.
