Folge 72: Revolution, Revivalism and Resurgance - The Reformed Tradition in America - a podcast by Heidelberg Center for American Studies

The Reformed tradition of Protestantism has arguably been the most influential form of Christianity in the history of the United States and can boast such important figures in the religious and cultural life of the nation as Johnathan Edwards, Charles Hodge and the brothers Richard and Reinhold Niebohr. Yet, despite a resurgence of interest in reformed theology in conservative evangelicalism in the past two decades, appreciation of its importance to the history of America more broadly is at a low ebb. In this episode of the HCA Podcast we are talking about the Reformed tradition of Christianity in America and asking, what is it? and why is it important for those of us who are interested in American history, society and culture? Todays guest, Dr. David Komline, who is here in Heidelberg on a Humboldt Fellowship working on a book project exploring the history of the Reformed tradition in America, is here to help answer these questions.
