Description
The Old Brethren is a vivid portrait of a courageous community that dared to be different, to live entirely by the Bible "as it reads," and to dress and act in ways that often made them seem peculiar. They were a seperate and distinct people who cultivated a deeper wisdom in the art of living, pledging themselves to nonconformity and nonviolence. In this twenty-first-century world, where inside and outside the church people on all sides tend to put being right ahead of being in good fellowship, the old Brethren, despite their sometimes narrow and sectarian ways, have something to teach us about forbearance. - from Amzon
