Description
The Free Church of England: A History from 1844 to 2018 Trevor Alexander Jordan explores the complex history of the Free Church of England, a member of the Anglican Communion since its inception in 1844. The church was established by South Devon Evangelicals as a response to the Oxford Movement, which sought to return the Anglican Church to its Catholic roots. The Oxford Movement's emphasis on ritualism and Transubstantiation led to a significant shift within the Anglican Church, with some members advocating for a more universal and worldwide approach. This period of change had far-reaching consequences for the church, leading to the establishment of the Free Church of England as a distinct entity. This book provides a detailed account of the Free Church of England's history, from its founding in 1844 to the present day, shedding light on the complex relationships between the church and the wider Anglican Communion.
