Universalism As It Is is a comprehensive textbook that explores the history and development of Universalism in America. Written by Edwin F. Hatfield, a prominent Universalist minister and scholar, the book covers a wide range of topics related to Universalism, including its theological foundations, its relationship to other religious traditions, and its impact on American society and culture.The book begins with an introduction to the basic tenets of Universalism, which holds that all people will eventually be saved and reconciled with God. It then traces the history of Universalism in America, from its roots in the early Christian church to its emergence as a distinct religious movement in the 18th and 19th centuries.Throughout the book, Hatfield examines the key figures and ideas that have shaped Universalism over the years, including Hosea Ballou, John Murray, and Clarence Skinner. He also explores the ways in which Universalism has intersected with other religious traditions, such as Unitarianism and Christianity.In addition to its historical and theological analysis, Universalism As It Is also offers practical guidance for Universalist ministers and congregations. Hatfield provides advice on preaching, pastoral care, and community building, drawing on his own experience as a minister and his extensive knowledge of Universalist history and theology.Overall, Universalism As It Is is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the history and theology of Universalism in America. It offers a comprehensive and insightful overview of this important religious tradition, and provides practical guidance for those seeking to live out its principles in their own lives and communities.1841.
