Church history can get into some extremely weighty matters very quickly. After all, when an author is diving into the good, bad, and ugly of human behavior, and then placing alongside those things considerations of religious faith and practice-always prime kindling for the fires of controversy in their own right-there will inevitably be plenty of serious stuff for the reader to think about. But church history can also be fun. In this volume, historian John Young guides the reader through some of the surprising plot twists, bizarre asides, unexpected ties to political developments, celebrity sightings, and even some good old-fashioned rumor-mongering embedded within the Stone-Campbell Movement or Restoration Movement. Silly Songs, Surprising Stories, and Supreme Court Justices offers a brief, fun, and enlightening glimpse into an important American religious tradition.
