Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the history of the First Methodist Episcopal Church of Blu'ton, Indiana, from its founding in 1838 to the early 1920s. The first Methodist sermon in the area was given just a few months before the town's official founding, and the church has played a major role in the community's spiritual, social, and educational development ever since. The author draws on meeting minutes, local newspapers, and other historical documents to recount the church's growth, its various building projects, and the many ways it served the religious and material needs of its members and the wider community. The book also includes biographical sketches of many of the church's early pastors and members, and it provides a glimpse into the everyday lives of 19th-century Methodists in the Midwest.
