A Manual of Congregational Principles is a book written by R. W. Dale and originally published in 1884. The book is a comprehensive guide to the principles and practices of Congregationalism, a Protestant Christian denomination that emphasizes the autonomy of individual congregations and the importance of democratic decision-making within the church.The book covers a wide range of topics, including the history of Congregationalism, the role of the pastor and other church leaders, the structure and governance of congregations, the importance of individual liberty and responsibility, and the relationship between church and state.Dale draws on his extensive experience as a Congregational minister and scholar to provide a thoughtful and nuanced exploration of the key principles that underpin the Congregationalist tradition. He also offers practical advice for pastors and church leaders on how to apply these principles in their own congregations.Despite being over 130 years old, A Manual of Congregational Principles remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the history and theology of Congregationalism, as well as those seeking guidance on how to lead and participate in democratic, autonomous churches.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
