A History of the Reformed Church, Dutch; The Reformed Church, German; and the Moravian Church in the United States

When missionary statesman and Moravian Church leader Count Nicolaus Zinzendorf arrived in colonial Pennsylvania, he was suspicious of plans to combine the diverse bands of Christians there into a unified church. Soon won over to the cause by passionate local ministers, he worked tirelessly with leaders of the Dutch Reformed and German Reformed churches to form a confederated “Church of God in the Spirit.” This book collects the histories of those three churches, and includes the story of how this bold plan fell apart in the midst of doctrinal and political controversy.
