300 Years of American Presbyterianism

Written by D.G. Hart and John R. Muether

The first American presbytery was founded in 1706. In the following years, Presbyterians grew to form one of the largest and most eminent denominations in the United States. Now, more than three hundred years later, that church is dwindling. What has happened? 

Lively, bracing, and informative, Seeking a Better Country takes an honest look at the rise and decline of American Presbyterianism, giving context to Presbyterians of all stripes.

"Surveys of history have a reputation for being major league snore fests – even for people with an interest in history.  And church history surveys?  The church history survey that can keep one’s attention for its full length is rare.  More often such books are kept on hand as reference tools and seldom read from cover to cover.  Seeking A Better Country is one of those rare, enjoyable church history surveys that is actually readable in its entirety." - Wes Bredenhof, Clarion

Paperback, 304 pages, notes, index of subjects and names
