Klappentext zu „Thomas Gillespie and the Origins of the Relief Church in 18th Century Scotland “
This book examines the life and work of Thomas Gillespie and the origins of the Relief Church in eighteenth century Scotland, within the wider context of the evangelical movement both within and without the Church of Scotland.Thomas Gillespie witnessed many changes within the religious and social life of Scotland and was at the centre of a dispute within the Church of Scotland which led to the beginning of one of the most significant Presbyterian denominations in the 18th and 19th centuries.
The book examines the impact of the Evangelical Revival, the influence of the Enlightenment on Gillespie's theology as well as the reasons for the development of a denomination which, by 1851, was the largest single denomination in Glasgow, achieving considerable political influence in the central belt of Scotland.

Pressezitat
"This book is an admirable study of a man who might appear to be schismatic, but in reality cherished unity in the gospel." (D.W. Bebbington, Scottish Bulletin of Evangelical Theology)"...a useful addition to the scholarship of the period. Indeed, we are deeply indebted to Dr Roxburgh for this study of a much-neglected figure and it is to be hoped that it will lead to further work on 18 th century Scottish church history and theology." (A.T.B. McGowan, Themelios)
