Description

This biography of Hosea Ballou also contains an impressive history of the Gospel Renaissance which influenced and shaped the Protestant churches in New England and the wider United States in the 19th century.


Hosea Ballou was a Unitarian Universalist minister who was born a few years prior to the United States declaring its independence and attaining nationhood. With the birth of a new country came a desire for a refreshed perspective on Christian religion and faith; Ballou and his associates would be instrumental in establishing the Unitarian doctrine throughout the fledgling nation. 


This biography, while brief, melds the life of Hosea Ballou with the underlying theology and beliefs which formed the Universalist creed. Much of the text is occupied with clarifying the differences in religious philosophy which represented Ballou's departure from earlier creeds. Through quotations of the scripture and Ballou's own words, we are presented with the view that Ballou and his ilk represented a decisive leap forward in American theology and religious beliefs. 


John Coleman Adams was a theologian active in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Knowledgeable regarding his home state of Massachusetts, Adams attended the University of Harvard and emerged as a Doctor of Divinity. He wrote several books on Christianity in his lifetime, covering topics such as the fatherhood of God, theology in the United States, and the beliefs of unitarian universalism.
