Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a critique of certain aspects of the Protestant church in the mid-19th century. The author argues that some Protestant clergy had lost sight of the true Christian message, focusing too much on doctrine and dogma instead of charity and compassion. Colwell's ideas were controversial at the time, but his work had a lasting impact on the evolution of American Protestantism.
