Old School & New School
The controversy between the Old School and the New School formally emerged in the 1830s. Troubling doctrines were being introduced to the Presbyterian Church by such men as Albert Barnes, Lyman Beecher, and Charles Finney. In this lesson, Dr. Godfrey explains the tensions that were arising in the church, the judicial processes that were occurring in the church, and the characteristic differences between the Old School and New School.
