Join us as we critically examine the first half of the inaugural issue of the Univercoelum and Spiritual Philosopher, exploring W. M. Fernald’s provocative essay on the necessity of new and higher revelations. We unpack his arguments for reasoned spiritual insight, a truer understanding of God, and the reform of society, while situating his ideas in the broader context of 19th-century spiritual philosophy. This episode illuminates how early spiritualist publications sought to reconcile faith, intellect, and social progress in an age of skepticism and rapid intellectual change.
