This book sheds new light on the origins of Congregationalism in England by examining the emergence of Separatist congregations in London during the reign of Elizabeth I. The author uncovers the forgotten story of these early Separatists, who rejected the established Church of England and gathered in secret to worship according to their own beliefs. The book traces the development of these congregations, from their initial formation in the 1560s to the emergence of Robert Browne and the Brownist movement in the 1580s. The author argues that these early Separatists played a crucial role in shaping the development of Congregationalism, and that their ideas and practices anticipated many of the distinctive features of the Congregationalist tradition. This book is based on extensive archival research and offers a fresh perspective on the early history of English Protestantism. It will be of interest to scholars of religious history, as well as to anyone interested in the roots of Congregationalism.
