Christianity is able to exist in every imaginable political and social climate. Through its history, it’s been supported and opposed, yet it has always flourished. The nineteenth century was a period of vast and rapid change, and Christians in America had to navigate those changes, both inside and outside the church. In this teaching series, Dr. W. Robert Godfrey surveys Reformed and Presbyterian history in nineteenth-century America, all to help the church today better navigate the changing world around us and the challenges we face together.
