Church HistorySteve Gregg
Steve Gregg provides a thought-provoking discussion on the Enlightenment and Enrichment in this historical context of Europe. Focusing on the Anabaptist movement and the rising powers of state and church, he explains how this period marks the birth of the age of science and rationalism, where everything that smacked of God's intervention was simply rejected. Despite the collapse of Deism from its own weight, the Spiritual Guide of Michael Molinas and the Quakers Quietists' belief in inward peace continue to influence Christianity.
