mostly a bunch of self-righteous, polite, and refined hypocrites who liked to attend plays and get together for tea parties? Or was the Great Britain of the 1800s a complex nation of diverse types of people who were thoroughly influenced by the gospel of Jesus Christ, and by those who worshiped Him? In this discussion, you’ll learn the essential characteristics and some of the most important events and leaders of 19th century Britain and its vast empire, especially those qualities that were possessed by Bible-believing leaders, pew-sitters, churches, and organizations during this time.

Christianity on 19th century Britain, as well as its general

condition. After discussing the religious, social, political, and economic conditions of the empire in the beginning of the century, they delve deeply into the major Christian influences in the nation. The topics include Christians in the British government; Christian charity organizations that reached out to the poor and needy; the development of the Church of England; the progress of other Protestant denominations; the influence of humanistic ideas and skepticism like evolution; the role of imperialism and Christian missionaries; and the conflicts between anti-Bible and anti-Christian movements both outside of and inside of some professing Christian groups. All in all, you’ll find that Victorian Great Britain was extremely fruitful in promoting the cause of the Lord Jesus and the expansion of His kingdom in the lives of sinners. However, you’ll also learn that, by the end of the century, large fire of Christian witness and living was largely being extinguished by moralism, liberalism, and scientism.
