Book Description
In 1801, the United Kingdom was a semi-confessional State, and the national established Churches of England, Ireland and Scotland were vital to the constitution. They expressed the religious conscience of the State and served as guardians of the faith. Through their parish structures, they provided religious and moral instruction, and rituals for common living. This book explores the struggle to strengthen the influence of the national Churches in the first half of the nineteenth century. For many, the national Churches would help form the United Kingdom into a single Protestant nation-state, with shared beliefs, values and a sense of national mission. Between 1801 and 1825, the State invested heavily in the national Churches. But during the 1830s the growth of Catholic nationalism in Ireland and the emergence of liberalism in Britain thwarted the efforts to unify the nation around the established Churches. Within the national Churches themselves, moreover, voices began calling for independence from the State connection - leading to the Oxford Movement in England and the Disruption of the Church of Scotland.

Book Description
The nineteenth century has often been termed a "revolutionary age" on account of the rapid and radical changes which took place in industry and transport, housing and public health, science and technology, education and social life. Religion also played an important part in this revolutionary age. In particular evangelical Christianity shaped the Victorian years. From Parliament where they were represented by William Wilberforce, the Clapham Sect, Lord Shaftesbury and an increasing number of bishops, right down to the poor on whose behalf they campaigned unceasingly, evangelicals began to influence every level of society.Despite the significance of this age for evangelical Anglicans, surprisingly little has been written. Evangelical Anglicans in a Revolutionary Age seeks to restore the balance. Based on a wide range of primary sources—sermons, tracts, private correspondence, newspapers, and journals—Nigel Scotland presents an extensive study of life in this era. Evangelical Anglicans and social action, theology, education, culture, politics, and mission are dealt with. Particular attention is also given to prominent individuals such as Charles Simeon, John Sumner, Spencer Perceval, and Josephine Butler in this extensive study that celebrates the rising number of Evangelical Anglicans in the revolutionary age.
