EOF02 The Eye of Faith, A History of Ohio Yearly Meeting Conservative. Chapter 2 The First Separation, 1821 - 1828
Manage episode 389712757 series 2969841
This episode is a reading of Chapter 2, The First Separation, 1821 – 1828. It covers the Ohio experience of the tragic Orthodox – Hicksite split in American Quakerism. It reports on some awkward moments of Quaker history. Learning about this era for the first time can be startling. Many of the actors did not behave in a way that one expects of either Quakers or Christians. The scenes described were not unique to Ohio Friends, as the great Orthodox-Hicksite split ravaged the entire Society of Friends in America. We can take this as a lesson of how easy it is to stray from the Light of Christ and that we should always keep our eye single unto Him.
A complete list of our podcasts, organized into topics, is available on our website.
