Horace Bushnell was an American Congregational minister and theologian. As a preacher, Dr. Bushnell was very effective. Though not a dramatic orator, he was original, thoughtful and impressive in the pulpit. His theological position may be said to have been one of qualified revolt against the Calvinistic orthodoxy of his day. He criticized prevailing conceptions of the Trinity, the atonement, conversion, and the relations of the natural and the supernatural. Above all, he broke with the prevalent view which regarded theology as essentially intellectual in its appeal and demonstrable by processes of exact logical deduction. To his thinking its proper basis is to be found in the feelings and intuitions of humankind's spiritual nature. He had a marked influence upon theology in America, an influence not so much, possibly, in the direction of the modification of specific doctrines as in the impulse and tendency and general spirit which he imparted to theological thought. Dr Munger's estimate was that "He was a theologian as Copernicus was an astronomer; he changed the point of view, and thus not only changed everything, but pointed the way toward unity in theological thought. He was not exact, but he put God and humanity and the world into a relation that thought can accept while it goes on to state it more fully with ever growing knowledge. Other thinkers were moving in the same direction; he led the movement in New England, and wrought out a great deliverance. It was a work of extraordinary courage. Hardly a theologian in his denomination stood by him, and nearly all pronounced against him."

1 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Boom! By DWalton "We have been expecting to thrive too much by conquest, and too little by growth."--Horace BushnellBy the early 1800s an individualistic conception of conversion had taken root in the American Christian mind, a conception which mentally severed children of believing parents from the Kingdom of Christ--at least until a visible conversion could take place. As a result, children of believing parents were seen as objects of evangelization, instead of Christ's disciples. En masse, parents began to walk by sight, not by faith. The Kingdom would suffer.By the mid 1970s, with the enabling of "the pill" and credit legislation that extended easy credit to husbands and wives jointly, a definitive choice was made by a majority of parents to abandon the home as an incubator and bootcamp for developing soldiers of Christ. Sheetrock and a new Chevy displaced a "godly seed" and became the new anticipated kingdom of God on earth. Today, the Church plows ahead with evangelism, hoping to outpace the crumble rate of member marriages and families by continuously adding new blood.Christ declared the Kingdom that He would build would continuously progress and endure forever--it was goin' global. As the prophet Daniel foretold: "...the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth." Toward this amazing and optimistic Gospel end, Horace Bushnell's "Christian Nurture" is nuclear war, laying out a solid Scriptural argument for the priority of Gospel procreation and family-based discipleship. This is a must read for all enthusiasts of Christ's Kingdom!
