The Story, Promise, and Future of the Churches of Christ — a history of ideas in twelve chapters, and the collection behind it.
A movement drawn together from reformers, farmers, clergy, and laypeople of many traditions took root on the American frontier — and helped reshape the Christian imagination of millions. That movement was about ideas — and the practices that embodied those ideas. We explore that story to discover what is genuinely beautiful, and what is worth carrying forward with vision and imagination.
The ideas that animated this movement form a connected chain, where every step is entailed by the one before it.
Each session page gathers what this collection holds on that week's story: the people in it, the events it turns on, the primary documents, the exhibits that carry the idea, and the quotes worth reading aloud. The class narrative itself lives with the teacher; this is the room it is taught out of.
