Hutton's superb history follows the Moravian Church from its earliest years as one of the earliest founding Protestant denominations, over the centuries as it developed into a mature Christian fellowship. Arranged chronologically, Hutton's history takes us first to the dawn of the Protestant Reformation in the fifteenth century. He details the fraught religious and political situation during the decades prior to the eventual split with the dominant Catholic order. We are introduced to the pivotal figures of the era, such as Peter of Chelci, Gregory the Patriarch and Luke of Prague. By harnessing popular sentiment and using new technology such as the printing presses to spread the new, Protestant doctrine, the split of Christianity occurred. The political climate of Prague, Bohemia and the surrounding areas in which the Moravians lived is much-detailed. The pure, simple observance of Christ and his virtues united the Moravian movement - the essential devotion to Jesus and his gospel appealed to Christians, who yearned for community under a common banner and felt distant from the old order. Poland in particular proved a bastion for the Moravian brethren, many of whom traveled and carried their traditions abroad. Following the years of conflict and Reformation, the Moravians distinguished themselves as a highly competent Christian group. Members of the Moravian church were among the first missionaries to venture to the New World, which was the scene of chaotic conflicts between the rival colonial powers. The simple adherence to the word of Christ runs a common thread through the political and moral dramas, as the Moravians grappled with issues such as slavery and war, helping slaves in kindness. Hutton's chronicle is thorough, intensively explaining the important aspects underpinning the Moravians. The development of their customs; how they congregated; the aesthetic appearance of their churches; and their establishment of parochial education are all detailed, giving the reader a vivid and valuable history.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief History of the Moravian Church, Vol. 1: A Series of Papers Prepared by Teachers of the Salem Home Sunday School for Use in the Classes But the Roman Church heard of their success, and determined to claim the work on the ground that the first introduction of Chris tianity into the country had come through its members. Cyrill and Methodius were summoned to Rome, but Pope Nicholas died before they arrived. His successor, Adrian II, thought it would be to'bis advantage to have Bohemia and Moravia comprise a diocese independent of both the German Bishops and the Greek Patriarch, and directly tributary to him, so he received the missionaries very graciously, approved of all they had done, and offered to make them Bishops. Cyrill, whose health was failing, declined the honor, and died a few weeks later, but Methodius promised him obedience, and was consecrated Archbishop of Pannonia, which was the ancient name of that diocese. He returned to Moravia, and under his guid ance the good work spread into Bohemia, and the first Christian church was built near Prague. The jealousy of the German bishops then became more intense, and they complained at Rome until Methodius was again called thither, and while he triumphantly vindicated his course the Pope ordered that the Gospels must be publicly read first in Latin and then in Slavonian, and a German suffragan, or assistant bishop, was appointed. From this small beginning the power of.the Roman Church increased until Bohemia and Moravia were entirely in their hands.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Moravian Church in New York City The year nineteen hundred and twenty-two is especially important because it marks the two hundredth anniversary of the Renewal of the Unitas Fratrum, or Unity of the Brethren, now generally known as the Moravian Church. The renewal of this ancient Protestant Church meant a great deal to the world in general and to the Christian Church in particular. Some of the most glowing pages in church history have been written by Moravians. The record of their early achievements is not unlike the Acts of the Apostles. At a time when the greater part of the Christian Church lay in the cold grip of a rationalistic formalism which had little or no concern for the welfare of anybody, the hearts of the people of Herrnhut were on fire for God. Their one passion was Christ, and to make Him known their greatest desire. Therefore they went anywhere and everywhere, preaching the gospel. In due time the Church spread to Great Britain, North America, and other lands. In America the conversion of the Indians engaged the zealous attention of the Moravians for many years. At the same time, they carried on extensive evangelistic labors among the many white people who were without church affiliation. It Js natural, therefore, that their hearts should be directed to the religious needs of the metropolis. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: At the end of the 1740s, the Moravians, a young and rapidly expanding radical-Pietist movement, experienced a crisis soon labeled the Sifting Time. As Moravian leaders attempted to lead the church away from the abuses of the crisis, they also tried to erase the memory of this controversial and embarrassing period. Archival records were systematically destroyed, and official histories of the church only dealt with this period in general terms. It is not surprising that the Sifting Time became both a taboo and an enigma in Moravian historiography. In A Time of Sifting, Paul Peucker provides the first book-length, in-depth look at the Sifting Time and argues that it did not consist of an extreme form of blood-and-wounds devotion, as is often assumed. Rather, the Sifting Time occurred when Moravians began to believe that the union with Christ could be experienced not only during marital intercourse but during extramarital sex as well. Peucker shows how these events were the logical consequence of Moravian teachings from previous years. As the nature of the crisis became evident, church leaders urged the members to revert to their earlier devotion of the blood and wounds of Christ. By returning to this earlier phase, the Moravians lost their dynamic character and became more conservative. It was at this moment that the radical-Pietist Moravians of the first half of the eighteenth century reinvented themselves as a noncontroversial evangelical denomination.
