The early political culture of the American republic was so deeply influenced by the religious consciousness of the New England preachers that it was often through the political sermon that the political rhetoric of the period was formed, refined and transmitted. Political sermons such as the fifty-five collected in this work are unique to America, in both kind and significance, because they address the centrality of religious concerns in the lives of eighteenth-century Americans.
Fire At The Founding documents the noble influence of Christian clergy, in their own words, and the Judeo-Christian faith in the United States during the 1700s. These pastors were America’s true Founding Fathers. They built essential foundations for liberty: true religion, righteousness, morality, culture of life, respect for authority and rule of law, just and limited civil government. The holy fire within them ignited a fire for truth and liberty within the American people. Their wisdom was hidden from us, but now is made known. May this book inspire clergy and Christians to rise up and be light, salt, and “the pillar and support of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15), to restore the Church and our nation.
For the 250th anniversary of the founding of Dartmouth College, the Political Economy Project at Dartmouth assembled a stellar cast of junior and senior scholars to explore the systemic conditions facing those seeking to found a new college two hundred fifty years ago. What were the key political, economic and religious parameters operating in the Atlantic world at the time of the College’s founding? What was the religious scene like at the moment when the Rev. Samson Occom of the Mohegan nation and the Rev. Eleazar Wheelock of Connecticut, two men from very different backgrounds whose improbable meeting occurred during the Great Awakening of the early 1740s, set about establishing a new school in the northern woods in the 1760s? How were the agendas of contemporaries differently mediated by the religious beliefs with which they acted, on the one hand, and the emerging thought world of political economy, very broadly understood, on the other? These are among the rich and variegated topics addressed in Dartmouth and the World, which breaks the mold of the traditional commemorative volume.
