Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Christianity and Culture' is a profound exploration of the dynamic and often complex relationship between religious faith and the social, intellectual, and artistic structures of civilization.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the prominent minister and social activist, Arthur Thomas Guttery, from his birth in 1862 to his untimely death in 1895. Born into a family of committed Methodists, Guttery was a natural orator from a young age, following in the footsteps of his father, also a renowned minister. The author sheds light on Guttery's formative years in Canada, where he spent eight years and developed his intellectual and spiritual growth. Upon returning to England, Guttery began his theological training at Elmeld College and was soon recognized for his exceptional abilities. Guttery's four years as a probationary minister in Oldham were a period of intense activity, marked by his passionate sermons and commitment to social justice. He fearlessly tackled issues such as landlordism, inequality, and the temperance movement. The author delves into Guttery's profound belief in the power of education for the betterment of society and his role as a prominent supporter of the Liberal Party. Guttery's influence extended beyond the pulpit as he became a sought-after speaker on both religious and political platforms. He was elected President of the National Free Church Council and used his platform to advocate for the separation of church and state. The book highlights Guttery's dedication to his family and his marriage to Sarah Biggs Alford, who played a vital role in supporting his demanding career. Ultimately, this book serves as a testament to Guttery's unwavering faith, his exceptional oratory skills, and his tireless efforts to bring about positive change in both the religious and social spheres of his time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
