This fascinating and thought-provoking volume explores the inner journey of a 19th century Protestant minister as he grapples with questions of faith and doubt. Drawing on the writings of noted theologian Wilhelm Martin Leberecht De Wette and his own extensive knowledge of Christian history and philosophy, James Freeman Clarke offers a unique and insightful perspective on the nature of belief and unbelief.
