First sentence: The aim of this book is to explore the place of Christianity in the lives of lay adherents of the Church of England during the period between the Revolution Settlement of 1688/9 and the middle of the eighteenth century, when the Evangelical and Methodist revivals began to offer new challenges to the established Church.
