Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Social Ideas of a Free Church is a book written by Elmer Severance Forbes and published in 1913. The book explores the social ideas and principles of the Free Church movement, which emerged in the United States in the late 19th century. The Free Church movement was a response to the growing industrialization and urbanization of American society, and sought to promote social justice, equality, and democracy.Forbes argues that the Free Church movement represents a new form of Christianity that is more focused on social and political issues than traditional forms of religion. He examines the role of the church in promoting social reform, and discusses the importance of education, labor, and community organizing in achieving social change.The book also explores the relationship between religion and politics, and argues that the church has a responsibility to be involved in the political process in order to promote social justice and equality. Forbes emphasizes the importance of democratic values and the need for a more equitable distribution of wealth and power in American society.Overall, Social Ideas of a Free Church is a thought-provoking exploration of the role of religion in promoting social justice and equality. It offers a valuable perspective on the history of the Free Church movement and its continuing relevance in contemporary society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
