Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of the theological development of key leaders of the Baptist and Congregational denominations at their period of greatest influence, including C.H. Spurgeon and R.W. Dale, and of the controversies in which those among them who embraced and rejected the liberal transformation of their evangelical heritage opposed each other. It presents a theological portrait of Victorian England in the history of the English Free Churches, tracing the theological development of key leaders over several decades. Hopkins also captures the 'state of the Unions' - Congregational and Baptist - through the freeze-frames provided by their biggest denominational controversies of the period.
