Puritanism: Christianity in America with Stephen Nichols

Summary

This sermon challenges the common negative perception of the Puritans, popularized by works like *The Scarlet Letter* and the Salem witch trials. It asserts that the Puritans were God-centered, valuing His sovereignty, holiness, and transcendence, and that their lives were deeply rooted in the Bible. The practical takeaway is to understand the Puritans through their convictions and their emphasis on biblical authority, rather than through enduring stereotypes.
